The High & Mighty was a duo made up of Mr Eon, the rapper, and he producer, DJ Mighty Mi. This had been on my listen to list for a while after hearing 'B-Boy Document '99' on a video game. There is nostalgia involved, but I think that is the standout.
The content isn't much different most of the time, but there is a certain freshness to the style. The features like Eminem, Mos Def and Mad Skillz stand out though compared to what Mr Eon brings. Then there is also Kool Keith and Jean Grae (FKA What? What?) on the pro-masturbatory 'Hands on Experience Pt. II' who knock their verse out of the park.
