Curren$y – Pilot Talk

5 stars out of 5

swag swag swag swag swag swag

probably the best way to describe this, Curren$y is dope, that Wiz Khalifa-brand of southern rapper obsessed with weeeeeeeeeeeeed

weeeeeeeeeed

hedonistic as fuck but also chill as fuck and the production by Ski-Beatz is crazy good

Earl Sweatshirt – EARL

get

this

this is an acquired taste

"Earl puts the ass in assassin
and puts the pieces of decomposing bodies in plastic
puts em in a pan and mixes it up with scat
then gobbles it up like fat black bitches and catfish"

yeah

this is all fantasyland violence with the Slim Shady LP as an obvious predecessor and it'd be terrible and stupid if the music wasn't actually so good

fantastic kinda lo-fi beats with crazy synths and shit

and Earl, who is 17 and talks about raping and murdering women but with mad rapping skills

don't call it horrorcore

and fuck steve harvey

FREE EARL

Freddie Gibbs – Str8 Killa

classic southern hip-hop subject matter and delivery packaged in the form of a bunch of dope songs

not much to say other than get it son

get

-

Das Racist – Sit Down, Man

um

tongue in cheek stuff

nothing like Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell (which WAS awesome)

approach with a sense of humour
