My CD mix of the month for tonight's February meetup is A Hip-Hop Primer, with A Hip-Hop Companion thrown in as a bonus. The first is a mix I put together to provide a friend's teenage son with an intro to hip-hop (he's a guitarhead who thinks rap music sucks and is beneath his attention), while the second is a companion disc for further study. The tracks on each are arranged in chronological order, but perhaps these playlists might work as well or better on shuffle.
