If you are looking for an album with all the best rap songs, this is the one to buy. It has one hit after another! Your collection would not be complete without this album.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Source Presents: Hip Hop Hits 6 by Various Artists, January 12, 2003

This review is from: Source Presents: Hip Hop Hits 6 (Audio CD)

In 1997 The Source, magazine of Hip Hop, Politics and Culture, released its first essential rap compilation, The Source Presents Hip Hop Hits Volume 1. The album was bombarded by huge names and even bigger hits from the likes of Jay-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., Puff Daddy, Foxy Brown, Lil Kim, Wu-Tang Clan & more and its run away success of the album was undeniable. Every year following the release of the incomprable first edition, The Source has put out a Hip Hop Hits album, but the material presented in the Hip Hop market today is nothing like it used to be, and none of the collections since volume one has really fully pleased fans.

Volume Six, is no exception. While the album is slam packed with some of rap's biggest hits, its also got some tracks on there that make this an album you can't play directly through. For instance the album includes the most over played songs of the decade, Nelly's "#1", Noreaga's "Nothin", Busta Rhymes "Pass the Courvosier" (Remix), P. Diddy's "I Need a Girl Pt. 2", Fat Joe's "Whats Love", and so on and so forth. I know that these songs are all hits and that people may enjoy them, but I can't stand listening to them a second longer. Then there are tracks that don't deserve to be on here at all, for example, Benzino's "Boottee" (Remix) & Scarface "Guess Whos Back".

Though the album is watered down by these tracks, you still can find some songs that while dated, are still hot. Styles P's "Good Times", Foxy Brown's "Stylin", Big Tymers "Still Fly", Jermaine Dupri "Welcome to Atlanta" (Remix), Ludacris "Roll Out" & Ying Yang Twins "Say I Yi Yi" are all songs that I could see myself playing at my house, at a party or in my car. Maybe if this disc was released earlier in the year then it wouldn't be such a disappointment, but if you don't already have these songs downloaded onto your computer, then make sure you get them on this compilation.
