Memphis Bleek

Despite A-list producers and a close association with Jay-Z, Memphis Bleek has yet to really have a hit record. On his fourth go-around, the Brooklyn emcee has a good shot at it, thanks to strong, sample-drenched beats and standout collabos. "First, The Last, The Only," (with M.O.P.), the weed anthem "Smoke The Pain Away," and Jay's "Dear Summer" are all fantastic.
