The Best Damn Rap Show is a collaborative studio album by Vast Aire and Mighty Mi. It was released on Eastern Conference Records in 2005.[7]

Critical reception[]

Andy Kellman of AllMusic gave the album 3 stars out of 5, saying, "Mighty Mi's beats are a good match for Vast, packing all the necessary grit and disorienting ambiance, but the album lacks The Cold Vein's dark edge."[1] Nathan Rabin of The A.V. Club said, "Mi is the sonic auteur behind Rap Show's grimy B-movie atmospherics, but Aire brings the verbal pyrotechnics."[2]

IGN included it on the "Top 26 Albums of 2005" list.[9]
