I truly do not know what else I can say about this glorious masterpiece, as Black Ken embodies everything I love about hip hop: 808 beats, funky bass lines, and a fine line between ignorance and wisdom. I am particularly partial to the middle of the album, beginning with a skit of Lil B and a pal discussing the need to go to San Jose before traveling to Mexico right before transitioning into the most fun part of the album with “Zam Bose (In San Jose)” and “Go Señorita Go.” I was immediately locked in with “Still Run It,” in which he lays down the law that hip hop is back and better than ever before sliding into a tough guy piano riff in “Bad Mf.” Every track gets better than the last, with the tape ending with “Live from the Island-Hawaii,” which pretty much explains itself, giving a whole new meaning to island time. With that being said, you’re gonna want to listen to the whole damn thing. Lucky for you I listened to the entire 1 hour and 39 minute project, even the skits, in one sitting so you didn’t have to. This mixtape is pure funk baby, reminiscent of the good old days of the hyphy movement in the rolling hills of Berkeley, California and the greater Bay Area. ![]() Black Ken has been delivered from based heaven, with a total of 27 dope tracks entirely mixed and produced by Lil B himself.
