The new mixtape from South Jersey-based hip hop duo The Board of Education is called “One Track Mind”, and as quite the hip hop fan myself, I’m not sure why their audience isn’t bigger yet. Well, there’s still time in 2012, and with talent like this, word-of-mouth has a habit of happening, and I’m happy to be a part of it. This is hip hop on the smarter side of things and it gives nods to old school influences like Outkast and A Tribe Called Quest. Flow rating definitely gets a 9; I can’t really pick out any flaws here nor would I want to. Chilled out samples, a perfect beat and self-aware rhyming has always made for strong hip hop, and this is no different.
