Finally!

"finally" when it's not even released for another 2 weeks o_0

Finally when I've been ramming it down your throat for over six months.

But anyway I'm happy not pissed or anything.

i only got the promo, ie a proper mp3, a month ago. you KNOW unless i have the full song it's not gonna happen.

unmixed, not a radio rip

Yeah hence my initial post - I've been biding my time.

agree that 212 is "arty" but it's also bangin and her rapping is fucking AWESOME. the flow (and the attitude) reminds me of golden-era beatnuts

(which makes a good year for beatnuts callbacks by female rappers - cf nicki minaj and "fly pelican fly")

i've stopped myself from tweeting "GUESS THAT CUNT GETTIN EATEN" about a million times

I love rapping along to "212" so much

someone wrote somewhere recently that it really does take its time to untangle itself in your head - the beat's not all that, you can't hear what she's saying except the cunt lines, it kind of blurs into itself - but once the structure of the song becomes apparent it's pretty indelible.

the reason it succeeds on thrill-level is cuz the "ayoooo" section functions as a massive fucking break, then when she comes in yelling WHATCHU GON DO WHEN I APPEAR it's an absolutely huge and physical moment

I have GISed "bundt cake" several times before deciding against making a GUESS THAT BUNDT GETTIN EATEN image macro.

p sure pelican fly has been said by many many rappers rather than just the beatnuts

just sayin ima let you finish but the beatnuts had the greatest "i'm a hell of a guy, fly pelican fly" rhyme EVER

and immediately afterwards she does a little ODB impression! mid-90s all up in this bitch

That "WHATCHU GON DO" bit sounds almost German to me. Along with Death Grips and Sleigh Bells who'd have thought that Atari Teenage Riot would be a big (if unacknowledged) point of reference in the early 00's? ;-)
