ESPN Presents: Jock Jams, Volume 1
(more) »rank: 2594by: Various Artists
: :A collection of well-known pop tunes, this record documents those ubiquitous tracks that have been played into the ground at nearly every sports facility in the country. Most, like 'Whoomp! There It Is' and 'Hip Hop Hooray,' are undeniably catchy, and other tracks were downright splendid when they first appeared on the scene. Some even credit 'Pump Up the Volume' with being a breakthrough for the electronic music scene of the late '80s and early '90s. Still, bringing musical innovation to light is not what the makers of this ...

Ryde or Die, Vol. 1
(more) »rank: 9221by: Ruff Ryders
: :Following in the hip-hop tradition of Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest, Dr. Dre, and the entire No Limit roster, DMX has used his nascent stardom to give something back to his crew, the Ruff Ryders. Ostensibly a showcase for the Lox and the unknowns of the family (Drag-On, Eve, Parle, Cross, and Infra-Red), Ryde or Die works even better as a calling card for producer Swizz Beatz, who gets plenty of shout-outs on the Cuban-flavored 'What Ya Want' and DMX's 'Bugout.' Swizz keeps the album bouncing with funky ...

: :The hip-hop entry in Rhino's Millennium Party compilation series doesn't so much capture the sound of the year 2000 as it does that of 1989. In the wake of 'Walk This Way,' Top 40 radio realized that its listeners would accept the Fresh Prince's tales of teen mock-woe, Tone Loc's Coasters-derived rockers, and Young MC's, er, tales of teen mock-woe. Up to and including Snoop's 'What's My Name?' (the CD's newest cut, from '93), this excellent PG-rated set makes nearly flawless choices. Biggest exception: 'Tennessee' by Arrested Development, whose ...
