Just curious...what would you pick as the best street album of the past year???

[JAG]

What would you rate as the best street album (all orginal material) of the past year or so (both west coast and national)?  I think Joe Budden's "Mood Music II" was the best street album put out since 2006, but I think Ya Boy's "Chapter 1: The Rise" is the best street album put out on the west coast.  What do ya'll think?

OK, well then since it's become your thread, why don't you tell us the criteria of what separates and album from an street album.

LOL, youre an idiot. Some "street" album do make the stores. JR Writer, Writer's Block 4 wasn't a street album? It's in every store out here. Even that Ya Boy is in some stores.

It's got a street feel too it, and it's not on a major ( Koch is still an indie, and even then Koch didn't have much to do with this record ), so I'll call it a street album, mate.

To me the industry is going the street album route. It is a quick way for a artist to get original material out while his or her mainstream album is being worked on. Bishop Lamont is a perfect example. Why wait around for maybe years at a time before your album come out on Aftermath? He has fresh, new material that is LP worthy and quality and he is putting it out. It's creates a buzz or keeps the buzz a artist already has. It is just called a street album because many times it just comes out. No set street date, no promo, no nothing. It is just another means to getting your music out there.
