The Source magazine has earned its exalted spot as the premier hip-hop magazine. Its thorough and uncompromising reporting on the world of rap, its culture, its conflicts, and its stars is well known. It stands to reason that their yearly compilations are the definitive representations of the best the music has to offer, and since the first volume of THE SOURCE PRESENTS HIP-HOP HITS, which opened fittingly with Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize," the collections have been highly sought after. Volume 8 of the series, issued in 2004, sees the music as strong as ever, as the Source tips its hat to both old and new schools, both underground and mainstream, both smooth and dirty. Tracks from old-guard artists E-40 and Scarface stand next to newcomers like the incredibly talented Kanye West and speed-spitters Young Gunz. The ultra-fun dance track "Salt Shaker" by the Ying Yang Twins, and the poppy "Tipsy" by J-Kwon share space with the more complex world of Gang Starr's "Skills." The Source is, as its name implies, the ultimate source for all things hip-hop and THE SOURCE PRESENTS HIP-HOP HITS VOL. 8 continues its reign.   Technical Info Release Date : 05/18/2004 Original Release Date : 2004 Catalog ID : 2527 Label : Image Entertainment (Audio) Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00014381252729    Product Image
