Ghostface Killah, Hidden Darts: No big mystery why I’m starting here. Not only do I love Ghost, but this is the best of the batch, a mixtape [...]

We’ve gotten Tempa releases on eMusic before, but today we got an unholy glut of releases in — a few of which are as essential as anything the genre has produced to date.

While yes, we are clearly the most knowledgable people about everything, sometimes we get some help.
