Members: Chiddy & Xaphoon Jones (Producer)
Though I'm still awaiting their studio album release, this mixtape with all the rejects will do for now. Chiddy takes the opportunity to make many references to his new Guinness World Record for "the longest freestyle rap". I just finished my first run through and here are the tracks I'd listen to a second time, which is more than I can say for most mixtapes these days.
1. Cameras
4. Too Much Soul
6. Guinness Flow
7. I Can't Stop (Freestyle)
8. Jacuzzi / Lost In The Vapors
9. High As The Ceiling (ft. eLDee The Don)
13. Nobody Has It Down
Phil Ade (Starting on JV (Mixtape)) [2009]
Here is Phil Ade's debut mixtape. You can tell there is room for improvement, but he is steering in the right direction...
2. Disco Flow
4. Going Off

Phil Ade (#PhilAdeFriday) [2011]
Genre: Hip Hop / Lyrical
Check out this up and coming hip hop artist from DC with a laid-back flow. He has been putting out a track every Friday (in other words this is not a studio album or a mixtape) to keep his fans interested and in the loop. These beats may not be originals but Phil's lyrics have their moments or at least I think so...
1. This Feelin' (Freestyle)
2. Phillin 'Em
3. Break Me Off
5. After Party (Freestyle)
6. Never Left (Guess Who's Back Freestyle)
7. Watchu Want Phil (prod. by Sunny Norway)

OutKast (Big Boi and Dre Present...OutKast) [2001]
I do realize that 2001 was a long time ago, but I haven't posted any OutKast on this blog yet so shut up and listen. While there are other good tracks on this greatest hits compilation, I've only posted the one that received little to no radio play (possibly the best one as well)...
2. Funkin' Around

Xaphoon Jones (The Xaphoon Jones (Mixtape) Vol. 1) [2009]
Now I'm not a big mash-up fan but I know how many people out there love Chiddy Bang. So I'm posting some of the more noticeable tracks from Xaphoon's first mash-up mixtape for everyone to experience. By the way Xaphoon Jones is Chiddy Bang's producer...
2. You Need (Mashup: Clipse & Led Zepplin)
4. Testify (Mashup: Radiohead & Kanye West)
13. I Wanna Know Now (Mashup: Bob Marley & MGMT)

Devin The Dude (To Tha X-Treme) [2004]
Skipped over this track off this less than perfect Devin album. Just put it back into rotation...
14. The Funk ft. Eightball

Jazz Spastiks (12 Bit Spit) [2010]
Members: Coco D & Mr Manyana
Just discovered this Scottish hip hop duo that has an old school tribe kind of a feel. I believe this is their debut album but it seems like these guys have been making music for a while...
2. Penpusha ft. Selph Conscious
4. Yes, Yes ft. Rebels to the Grain (Sorry No Link)
8. Unkutfresh ft. Rebels to the Grain
13. Buzzin ft. Wes Restless & The Primeridian

Star Slinger (Volume 1) [2010]
Here is a dope, beat tape from Manchester producer Star Slinger. Other than the intro I can't say anything really grabbed me but you can decide for yourself...
