People who hold firm that the late 80s/early 90s is the golden era of hip hop, Progressive Era is still providing that timeless style. Tune in for lo-fi beats, gunshot samples, and lyrics covering the range from Public Enemy’s revolutionary raps to Nas’ smooth staccato pontifications. Where many new-schoolers lean on post-rap production trickery, Progressive Era struts over their stripped down beats showcasing strong writing and masterful delivery. They make the type of tracks that’ll have people running up to your car asking who you’re listening to. -=bMC
