The year is over kings and queens and if you're a true mixtape fan, then you know that 2007 was the "year of Wayne". That one artist was the subject of so many mixtapes that we decided that for the "Top 7 of the Year", we were going to pick the best one of hundreds and that went to the Empire. However, we couldn't ignore the success of "Blood, Sweat & Tears". Mick Boogie didn't do much this year, but its clear that he's chosen quality over quantity. It may have come late in the year, but "Dilla-gence" is an original.
After Cam and 50 went head up on Hot 97, 50 was easy to find, but Cam was hidden like he was in witness protection until "Public Enemy #1" dropped. Joe Budden took the game by storm with "Mood Muzik 3" and that may have the labels going nuts, because it was by far the biggest hit of the year. What can we say about Kanye that hasn't already been said? "The Best of Biggie" may have been overlooked but its a classic like Jordan retro'san so you have to respect it. Not to mention it flew off the shelf like beer at a frat party.
On another note, please be sure to check out our apparel section for the official "Mood Muzik 3" t's as well as the new line "Illestrations" by famed mixtape graphic artist Miami Kaos. They will be in stock in two weeks. The demand has become greater than we expected, hence the delay. We appreciate the support and are looking forward to 2008. See you there sons and daughters of royalty.
