(AllHipHop News) In a new feature, AllHipHop is asking artists to take it back to the classic 1991 Black Sheep single “The Choice Is Yours” by deciding if they want to go with “this or that.”
In the first edition we tap Maybach Music Group’s youngest member Rockie Fresh. Now with the backing of a major label the Chicago-raised emcee has the ability to hit the studio regularly, and as a result he can choose to release music for his growing fanbase more often. After dropping the Electric Highway mixtape in January, Rockie is returning next week with his new project The Birthday Tape.
AHH sat down with the 22-year-old to get his picks on a few questions concerning his interests and other hot topics in Hip-Hop. The self-professed fan of the Chicago Bulls, Kanye West, rock music, and the Back to the Future franchise shares his choices in “This or That”.
AllHipHop: What’s your favorite Hip-Hop album right now?
Rockie Fresh: I would say [Lil Wayne’s] Tha Carter II.

If you could relive an era would it be 80’s or 90’s?
