New York DJ Peter Rosenberg of Hot 97 fame has just gone and put out one of the most complete and jam packed mixtapes this year, It pretty much features every buzz worthy rapper in the game including A$AP Rocky, Joey Bada$$, Dime A Duzin , Flatbush Zombies, Action Bronson as well as other acts that are sure to be all the rage in the near future . The tape clocks in at 17 tracks long and each has the throwback hip hop sounds and vibes we are beginning to associate with the new New York scene. NYR follows the formula of the classic city collaboration tape, gloat your success, rep your city and make sure everyone knows that you are on top of the world.
Having all these acts on the one tape, repping the one city really makes you realise just how alive and kickin’ hip hop is in the city that gave birth to it more than 40 years ago. Renaissance period indeed.
For a tracklist this epic this mixtape copped nowhere near as much hype as it should have, in fact it seems to have just popped up out of nowhere (no complaints here). The best part about it is you can grab it for FREE below.
