As we continue on, our Sounds Like Summer series adds another volume while the humidex/heat index pushes past 100 in the north east. Somethin’ for your car, somethin’ for your hangout spot, or just somethin’ for you to chill to. Hella shouts to dirt_dog from TROY for the artwork. Download link, tracklist and links to the rest of the series after the jump.

Before we announce the #1 Top Ten-est Rap Album of All Time next week I wanted to focus on albums that just missed the top ten. These are all excellent albums that sadly had a fatal flaw I could not over look.
Black Moon – Enta The Stage
Download
– Beat Minerz productions and Buckshot killing it for the first and only time.
– Featured 5 Ft. and Dru Ha, and the body count was just to ridiculous coming from two rappers under 5 feet tall and 120 pounds.
Redman – Whut Tha Album
Download
– Not a bad song on the album, thick funk production and Redman at the height of his powers.
– To many stories of sharing women with Erick Serman and “Accidental” encounters with tranies.
Clipse – Lord Willin
Download
- Great coke rap and amazing production
– Not being able to tell the rappers apart, guest appearances and Pharell
Main Source – Breaking Atoms
Download
- Large Pro production and rapping.
– Some nerd shit
Diamond D & The Psychotic Neurotics – Stunts Blunts and Hip Hop
Download
– Excellent production, Diamond is surprisingly adept on the mic
– Features Fat Joe and Lord Jammar
Hooray for bootlegs. The cover is self explanatory – this is a compilation collecting the original sources used by Large Pro in creating Breaking Atoms. Naturally the main target demographic here are the sample nerds. However this also works as a good mix of assorted classic rock/funk/soul/jazz jams so you can enjoy it even if you don’t give two shits about what the original for Vamos A Rapiar was.
