HipHop Mixtape

[stann]

Here it is, the magnificent octopus.
In four blistering volumes, loosely arranged into ear-friendly styles, which contain, though perhaps not exclusively, the best hiphop tunage that money can buy. It is a mixtape at the end of the day, so there might be a linker tune or two.
Only my opinions, so if your favs are not there don't fret yourself, though I am right.

Stan,

no compilation is complete without Kraftwerk's Trans Europe Express.

It got hip hop off the ground

[stann]

Agreed. But it's not hip hop in itself, neither is Planet Rock, that's why I left them both out.
Now when Hoop finally gets his electro one done...

[superfrank]

Number Three looks like a really good one, a few personal favourites there for me.
