Artist ThatGo: 88 Keys


  88 Keys is an artist from Harlem, New York.  He's done production work for hip hop's more so-called "conscious" rappers such as Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, and Mos Def.  His track record dates back to 1988 and beyond. Recently Kanye West has taken a liking to him and has produced a bulk of his latest music. I checked out his new mixtape entitled "Adam's Case Files" and was impressed with his style. His album has very raw story telling and adresses  issues you don't normally hear from other rappers but can relate to.  I'm not sure how successful he will be commercially but the quality is very high in this "backpack" rapper's repertoire.
