ALBUM OF THE YEAR...

Also out this week is Album of the Year, the new record from Motown hip-hop producer/emcee Black Milk.The title of the album is a bit deceptive, it's actually connected to the year 2009 when Milk lost his close friend Baatin of Slum Village and saw his manager HexMurda experience a life-threatening stroke. The result is a focused effort that channels those hardships without coming off all "woe is me". Definitely check for this one.
