6. IZZY JONE$ and fellow hip-hop poet ROGER REBEL score big with "Flake City" from IZZY's ALBUM0. "Flake City" opens with IZZY reciting a famous prayer with a couple twists: "our father who art in heaven, let it be thy name, thy Kingdom Come, and Roger drop armageddon on all these lames." The single is almost empty of instrumentation except for percussion. ROGER REBEL joins IZZY, and near the song's end proclaims "[he's] the new Tupac." It's not a predictable or usual choice for a single. But IZZY
JONE$ is not about staying in a comfort zone. That's part of his message to us: we are zeros, but not losers -- we are here to define ourselves for ourselves.
7. UNITED FRONT with TAHIR RBG bring the power full-on in "The Hate That Hate Produced". This is, many old headz will inform anyone who'll listen, the true original purpose of hip-hop:
Black liberation and freedom. Which includes freedom of speech, and it seems certain that UNITED FRONT have been on somebody's
list. We know that the Southern Poverty Law Center has at least one similar hip-hop artist on their "hate group" list. But UNITED and TAHIR aren't spitting about killing anyone, they're
spitting about the current war taking place against Africans in america and in the diaspora. "The Hate That Hate Produced" is a stirring, unnerving political statement about race relations in the 21st century.
8. DAVID ELLIS is brilliant, passionate, enraged in "For Being Black". It's one of the heaviest, harshest indictments of cops, the american judicial system and slave-owning presidents. DAVID ELLIS accuses america of committing genocide against Black americans; he pays tribute to Trayvon Martin by talking about
the fear he himself felt eating skittles during a walk down the street. DAVID drives the points home in the chorus using enslaved Africans as the metaphor for his family now. DAVID ELLIS never allows us to forget that in america there's hell to pay "for being Black."
9. ASTRONAUT FLOOD released "War" probably with the gpvernment watching. This composition is revolution all by itself: "fuck the slave-master ... i should give him a noose". Conscious hip-hop is fearless, in-your-face confrontation, and to the growing millions who are engaged enough to join a Justice march, they look to hip-hop artists like ASTRONAUT to sound the alarm.
10. LUL BEAR "All That" is by an artist who does not follow the conventions that most are used to and expect. His infamous, controversial album "NVSTY BV$E GOLDEN G" is an orgiastic hip-hop party that showcases LUL BEAR's unmistakeable flow, lower notes that say "i don't give a fuck" and turn into a monster two seconds later. LUL BEAR spits about sex and choice of orifice, giving facials to careless anonymous women who he blames for being sloppy.

THE TOP HIP-HOP SINGLES 2014 ***Part 1
1. THE HOLY KARON released "My Religion" two days before Christmas and what an early gift it has been to the disciples of His Holiness. THE HOLY KARON fights the demons of the human condition in "My Religion". It doesn't have the fire of "Mourn" or "Destined to Die" but the passion, intellect and righteousness are all intact. What can you really say about a HOLY KARON song though? You have to feel it: the danger, the introspection, the battle cry against injustice. THE HOLY KARON is as always fighting the HOLY fight and if HIS HOLINESS can't defeat the oppression, it can't be done. "My Religion" is a 5 star, perfect piece of hip-hop lyricism, passion and integrity. ALL HAIL HIS HOLINESS.
2. LIL B former member of THE PACK, released this lyrical coup d'etat "No Black Person Is Ugly" over the summer. It's a deceptively simple title for a song with meaning beyond subjective beauty. "No Black Person Is Ugly" is no experiment though: LIL B is sternly stabbing at the heart of racism white supremacy. And denying america the unearned, horrific right to a future if it includes white privilege. When LIL B spits "don't say it one time", what i hear is: Your privilege, and sadistic "right" to torture, demoralize Black people has been revoked!
3. LIMITLESS SOUNDZ and LORD AV gave us a huge holiday gift with the explosive, righteous "Fallen Clouds". These two intellectual giants have worked together before -- on LORD AV's "Rise Of A Rebel." LIMITLESS SOUNDZ aka LS is directly in-your-face here, you can almost smell the breath and feel the God spitting. LIMITLESS often marries the abstract with the conscious. With LORD AV they are the defenders of the defenseless. LORD AV and LS created a song with enough integrity to start a revolution.
4. TADAR released "Zero to a God (freestyle)" earlier in the year and immediately i heard a masterpiece. TADAR has for the second year in a row, to my mind, released one of two or three of the year's Best Hip-hop singles. Last year the year's undeniably Best overall was, my ears told me, "Trayvon to God Be the Glory". This year, "Zero to the God" just gets in your mind, changes you. TADAR is a powerful, righteous hip-hop prophet and poet.
5. De'WAYNE JACKSON is a hitmaker, credits like "Metaphors" and this one, "Who is He" featuring DONNIE HUSTON. Unlike the gray-skies in "Bike & A Dream", this one has a sunny melody, bright bounce to it. The first half is De'WayneWavy all positive and silly, even laughing about Jim Carrey in LIAR LIAR. His momentum slows a bit as he admits he tries to hide his pain. "You can't see the passion in my eyes." You can almost hear the tears in his voice for a moment. "Who Is He" is De'Wayne_wavy's late introduction. It peeks in the dark corners and the lit ones, giving us a hint that De'WAYNE JACKSON, whoever he is, has like the rest of us an uphill downhill life.
