Alternative hip hops grand master. Milo has been bringing the world his brand of philosophical hip hop over wistful beats since 2011 when he dropped I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here which was simultaneously the best Del the Funky Homosapien reference and mixtape of that year. With a cadence that suckers you in layered on top of dreamy beats and hooks, Milo might just be the coolest cat in the industry. Another loyal member of Hellfyre Club, Milos songs deal with existential quandary more than anyone else around. Hes a philosophy student who just happens to be one of the best rappers on the planet. His words fit together so perfectly as if they were jigsaw pieces that make you question why nobody thought to put them in that order before now because theyre so flawlessly beautiful. You understand everything hes saying from the very first syllable and his tracks are splitting at the seams with pop cultural references that range from Vonnegut to The Wire, from Schopenhauer to Lando Calrissian. From his collaborations with producer Baths to featuring the likes of Kool A.D, Busdriver and Nocando, hip hops self-proclaimed lazy theologian has been steadily producing the most interesting and the most loveable music in the industry today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XajYidbry54 What do you think of this list?
