Yo, Year of the Blacksmith!
I need your help with a project I’m working on, and it’s very simple- so much so that I’m merely looking to compile a list of hip hop albums released in the 2011 calender year. ”Albums”, thus meaning a clear separation of ’free’ (un-cleared) ’mixtapes’, and hard copy (for sale) records. Thanks for your support. Or your ignoring of a silly topic, regardless, I thank you for your time. I will attempt to give an example now.
