Throwback

2008 mixtape from the Rap legend with J-Love. Mixtapes are a dime a dozen, but mixtapes that are worth a dime are few and far between. Forget the ubiquitous diss tracks and gunplay, N.O.R.E. & J-Love is the real deal. N.O.R.E. fans argue that his work has been slept on throughout his career and the selection of tracks on this CD proves them right. N.O.R.E. & J-Love opens with one of Noreaga s first popular hits as a solo artist, N.O.R.E. The collection also offers 25 songs, not interludes, skits or shout-outs. Standouts include Shame on a Nuh over the classic Brooklyn Zoo instrumental, Capicu featuring the Beatnuts, Tony Touch and Fat Joe, and the classic, Fantastic Four.
