Governer "House of Pain"
Governor (vocals); T.I. (rap vocals); Raphael Saadiq (guitar, bass guitar). Recording information: Patchwerk, Atlanta, Georgia. Southern rapper-cum-mogul T.I. took a chance by signing Governor to his Grand Hustle label in 2006 (home of Young Dro, P$C, and Breezy), but the R&B singer fits better on the roster than anyone would think. Governor's rawly emotional vocals and incisive, honest lyrics--evoking the best spiritually charged soul music of the 1970s--mesh well with the computerized beats, samples, and other elements of hip-hop production, as evidenced on the album's first single, "Blood, Sweat & Tears." And he is never afraid to be completely himself, whether it's courageously dressing down gangsta bragging on "Be Yourself" or asking for acceptance for his foibles on "Forgive Me."

By Far the Greatest Album:
