two zero one seven underground raps and tracks
It's 2017 and the only thing that doesn't make us want to give up on humanity is this music! We start off with some artists we've never featured on the show before Lil Kayla and Getemtree. The first segment features three new songs out of the Bay Area and an obligatory Baton Rouge contribution. The second part of the show has three hot duos, with Bibby and Herbo, Ralo and Gucci and Fredo and Chief Keef. We close our new music segment with South African electronic duo Kajama. OMB Peezy's Lay Down should have been on our 2016 songs of the year list, but we were late on it, so it's on here instead. Finally, we pay homage to the Nigerian funky electronic technician and speaker of truths William Onyeabor.
