New Audiomack mix features top 50 rap songs of April

This month I chopped my Audiomack best-of list from more than 150 down to the top 50 Hip Hop/rap songs of April. This mix blends boom bap, political, international, gangster and even pop rap songs from a diverse selection of artists both well established and unknown. You might hear something you missed from an all-time great (e.g., the Phife Dawg tribute from KRS-One); or you might discover an artist who becomes a new favorite (e.g., Chisom). At the very least, you’ll rock out to the “Dirty Cops” remix from Onyx and Snowgoons, and you’ll get hooked on another self-produced gem from rapper/singer Russ. Enjoy. And be sure to download the Audiomack app so you can play this on your commute.
