Krip-Hop
Mixtape Reviews
3/07 Wearing the "krip" tag boldly on their sleeve, the
artists on Leroy Moore's Krip-Hop Mixtape Vol. 1 make no
apologies about disability and defy those who listen to
krip-hop to hear it outside the mainstream. These tracks
are full of inventive lyrical stylings and fresh beats, and
the production is great. Moore's Krip-Hop Mixtape Vol. 1
opens up an entirely new soundscape within hip-hop that
runs from coast to coast in North American and extends to
Haiti, Germany, Spain, and Zambia.
