It’s once again en vouge to make lists of top rappers. This is a past time as old as pen and paper. People making lists of their favorite things, and in this case favorite MCs.

Mon Navy and Jazzy Moon release mini album ‘EGO’
Producer Jazzy Moon and rapper Mon Navy collaborated on the mini album ‘EGO‘. The six tracks feature Simba Zawadi, Horim, D’uncanny, and Easymind.
Mon Navy tells his stories on the rough, charismatic drum beats by Jazzy Moon. In the first track, the rapper explains how he began making music. Then, track two throws the listener into the depths of Mon Navy’s mind. His thought process unfolds throughout ‘돈은 숨’ (Money Is Air), ‘Brain’, ‘뻔해’ (All The Same), and ‘불빛’ (Light), all the while being supported by Jazzy Moon’s superb beat production.
