2K13 CHICAGO HIPHOP MIXTAPES OF THE YEAR

100's of artists released projects for listeners in 2k13. Some good some bad, and most not even on the radar to be considered. Below we rank some of the best listens to come out of Chicago this year. Plenty of other tapes could have been ranked if this list was just a little longer, with only 10 spots to fill these are the ones that caught our ear as this year came and went.
