K-Rino is by far my favorite rapper of all time. his lyrical ability is beyond any human comprehension. The only problem I have with K-rino is that he also has the habit of choosing mediocre beats for his albums I've bought all of his albums, except the his 4 disc serie of feature tracks, and it's been a two faced experience. On one side I am blown away by his lyrics. If I lose concentration for one bar it's impossible to get back on track. On the other hand, many of the beats are way too dark for me. I want the beat to be funky or floating -it's supposed to move me. When he uses the dark semi-horror type beats the listening experience becomes a struggle more than a pleasure.
So he is my favorite RAPPER but not my favorite BEAT PICKER
But I have my favorite K-rino albums. you should definitely start with Danger Zone and stories from the black book. Both have that classic H-town sound and are so damn dope. I also loke fear no evil and the self titled one, the Hitt List and worst rapper alive. Also, Alien Baby is a great album. Haven't had the time to listen to his new one yet. But if you'd like a taste of his versatility througout the first decade check out his "Ten Year Run".
