Hip hop at this point has very few “underrated” rappers. There is a loving audience for anyone that has some form of skill, and if we’re being honest that ain’t required at all. With that said dude is mad underrated, if you’re into that Brooklyn spiced boom bap and Skyzoo ain’t in your top 5 living emcees, I have questions. His first full length was produced by 9th Wonder and recorded in 3 days in 2006. I’m not gonna pretend I’m a Day 1, pretty sure I was first exposed to him around 2014/15 or so, basically right before his album produced by Apollo Brown dropped. Since then I’ve been grabbing everything I can. His flow is that easy Brooklyn cadence you should know and love, and lyrically he’s on a level I reserve for a few (Tariq Trotter for one). Oh and he’s Griselda adjacent. I’m not gonna flood this post with all of my favorite tracks of his, but here are some highlights. Luxury feat Westside Gunn https://youtu.be/4hkelaIKuW4 Written in the Drums https://youtu.be/bhVEwMe0bLs Spike Lee Was My Hero feat Talib Kweli https://youtu.be/gFGd2drY4OQ Eastern Conference All Stars feat Benny, Westside Gunn and Elzhi prod by Pete Rock [url] https://youtu.be/VFZQE_g7p_4[/url] See a Key (Ki) feat Jadakiss [url] https://youtu.be/MwQ4PwPGfsc[/url] I Was Supposed To Be a Trap Rapper (love this one for the Nautilus flip) https://youtu.be/4hR-ohWZTFc Everyone loves a good sample flip, I appreciate this as an amazing cover that was flipped to represent the reality of Bucktown of the last 10 years. This is from an EP with the Italian jazz quartet Dumbo Station. We Used to Live In Brooklyn Baby https://youtu.be/jiV0C2xZ5Xw Anyway, dude has GOAT producers doing whole albums for him and has the bars to back them up. highme fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Jan 13, 2022 |

skyzoo is a rapper that I forget every few years and then see his current stuff is still good, it’s hella hard to be consistent in hip hop https://youtu.be/vzSd3gaRSpY
