Actually just impossible. Give me some time or maybe some other people will nominate them for me.
I think us hip hop heads should come together and make the ultimate hip hop playlist (on Spotify even), I feel like we could introduce BEA to the greats/get them up to speed.
If you're interested in a project like this, get in touch with me. I'm willing to lead it. We can use a lot of the albums being used in this game, as well as stuff in the Top 750 and just stuff we think is at least worth a listen.
I can understand coming to BEA and then being dissuaded as a hip hop fan. We need to show some of the more stubborn people the power of lyricism and thoughtful beat construction and that hell, a lot of hip hop albums can have amazing concepts (Undun). _________________

Just make a collaborative Spotify playlist and post it. If there's any songs you don't agree with that are put on the playlist, you can delete them as creator.
We live in a country where being different at all is bad.

But yeah, marginalization of those who are different has unfortunately been a significant aspect of group culture since the dawn of time.
