Dubcnn's Best Of 2007 - December 31, 2007 By : Eddie

2007 has been quite a year for hip-hop, and we've seen many quality releases from artists and producers across the nation. Because of this, we've compiled "Dubcnn's Best Of 2007" - a look back at the Dubcnn staff's favorite artists, albums, mixtapes, and singles of the year.

It was very hard to pick a single winner in each category, so we've chosen five picks under each topic. These winners were chosen from a majority vote system, and it was no easy task to pull off! Please be aware that the views and selections expressed in this "Best Of" feature are the opinions of the Dubcnn team as a whole.

Some of our staff have expressed their reasons and feelings in regards to who and what deserved to be recognized in selected categories. Also please note that images shown do not represent a 'favorite' or 'winner'. Check out what we've come up with by following the link below.

Dubcnn's Best Of 2007

We hope you have a great New Year, and we'll see you in 2008!

List looks pretty legit to me

I don't know if it's because this came out so late in the year, but I really thought that Bishop Lamont's "Pope Mobile" (as well as N*gger Noise) should have been in the "Mixtape of the Year" category. Dude murdered both tapes!

I don't like that list. Looks like y'all just put the big major releases together. For best single you chose the major singles. Like e.g. from the UGK album the track with OutKast which is far from the best on their album, which is really dope for a 2007 release. But there are tracks like "Quit Hatin The South" ft. Charlie Wilson e.g. that own that track so hard, I mean musically. But you chose the popular one. I don't know why you missed the Kurupt track "Mystic River" which is in my top 5 of 2007. I mean this Battlecat beat is crazy and Kurupt is really deep on that one. I wonder why the DPG album gets no mentioning, regarding that it's a strong and one of their best records imo. I mean the brought back that real gangsta sound and the features were awesome. This album had energy. And last, I can't see why there is no chicano release mentioned. Especially the double disc by Mr. Criminal was very dope. Producer of the year is Fingazz for sure, you all just sleep on that. Just listen to the cuts Fingazz produced on the Criminal album, on the Capone-E album or the Down aka. Kilo album. This guy is awsome. Remember 2006 he produced the whole Roscoe album, which is near to classic to me.
That's just my opinion, y'all may think about it.
Peace
