In the 4th installment of the JerkishBehavior Top 5 list, the topic of discussion is what were the Top 5 Rap Mixtapes of 2009? Here are JerkishBehavior's Top 5 Rap Mixtapes of 2009...
1. Drake's "So Far Gone" No explanation need, Drizzy.
2. J. Cole's "The Warm-Up" J. Cole is the flagship artist of Jay-Z's new record label Roc Nation and this was his warm-up to his debut for the world. J.Cole spits over classic instrumentals and has numerous quotables that you have to listen to multiple times in order to catch them. For example, "Lord, please let my problems disappear like Ron Mercer/I’m a star, Conversers , conversing with them girls, with them curves like cursive/They open like curtains because my shit is unheard of like curses on the radio/Same bitches used to play me though,Now they yelling" off "Grown Simba
3. Lil Wayne's "No Ceilings", fans and critics alike were wondering if Wayne could still rap and questioning his "Best Rapper Alive" moniker which led to the return of the mixtape Weezy. "No Ceilings" proves that Wayne still has it and does this rap thing when he feels like it. Once again Wayne makes you forget who the original song belongs especially on "Wasted" with lines such as "Your flow never wet, like grandma pussy/I'm always good, like grandma cookies/yeah call me the spine fixer cuz its going down like the Catalina wine mixer."
4. Wale's "Back To The Feature" is one of the sleeper mixtapes of the year but every track had a feature from some of the best lyricists in the game from Joe Budden, Bun B, Talib Kweli, Beanie Sigel and many more. Wale showed his competitive spirit and not being afraid to test his rhyme skills against the elite and Wale most definitely held his own with them all while outshining a few as well in the process. Like on "Tito Santana", Wale spits "You gon need a couple stars to get your first victor/Word picture, hurt ni**az, young verse killer/fist pleaser, skirt lifter, young Dirk Diggler/Wahlberg (Shooter), young flow fluid/and my brains travel like Yung Berg jewels Transformer."
5. Gucci Mane "The Movie Part 2" sees arguably the hottest rapper out sans Drake craft numerous bangers that you will have on constant repeat such as the hit "Beat It Up" with Trey Songz, "Presure", and "SuperHero" f/ Shawnna where Gucci spits one of his most complete verses ever with lines such as "RoboCop uzi, Bat Girl choosin Wonder Woman bracelet/ made the crowd stop booing/flint stone jewelery box same color as Wilma/you don't wanna sign the choppa but I dont wanna kill ya/ I think I lost my mojo beefin with Dr. Evil"
