#MusicChallenge 15 years of Crown Royale "Buff1 & DJ Rhettmatic Are Crown Royale." 1st listen in wayyyy too long. Back-to-basics MC/DJ album with uplifting results. Though Buff1 (Ann Arbor, MI) & Rhettmatic (L.A.) aren't an obvious pairing, they gel well. Real life rhymes, big beats. Epic posse cut:
