Love this Curren$y and Wayne tune man, the Rick Ross and G-Side tunes too. I got a couple of Curren$y's mixtapes/albums and put the whole list on shuffle, I'm pleasantly surprised to see how little there is that I don't like. 'Pilot Talk 2' is great, 'Pilot Talk' and 'This Ain't A Mixtape' also. Don't think I've put up this one before:
'Michael Knight' is number 1 for me, the beat is just tough.
I'm warming to Lil B recently, was watching some of his videos last night mashed and there's something very compulsive about them, even when its just
him rapping on a bus for five minutes. Whether or not its just a pretense, his music feels genuinely unhinged.
Noz wrote a really good piece on him in which he talks about the link between Lil B's music and the information overload/chaos of the internet. I think there is something about his music that taps into the specific mental unhinging of the obsessive internet user, its all over the place, ADD but also so compulsive. I like that he has a similar quality to Ghostface in that he feels quite freeform, he says things nobody else would.
