the new bubba sparxxx album is...

(well and hopefully also for the purposes of myself actually enjoying it -- sounds really bananas, in a good way)

intro
1) my
2) complexion
3) gives
4) niggas
5) erections
outro

'In Da Mud' is on the record, right? I really got into that one. 'Deliverance' and 'Jimmy Mathis' are nearly as good as Kiley's 'Keep It Moving'. I think she's a guest on the record too.

I have high hopes for this, commercially as well as sonically. I'm one of those dudes who thought 'Lovely' was underrated after all.

HOLY CRAP it's "shakedown," beverly hills cop sndtrk, bob seger i think?? why am i making this connection? anyway yup, organized noize just brought over the drum machine they usually use with outkast. fun track.

The Simpsons are from Kentucky!

"Comin' Round" was so good when I heard it in the car I couldn't keep my ass on my seat, I was having trouble driving it was so good. Like, take-control-of-my-body good. I wanna hear this album so bad now.

-Intro
-Jimmy Mathis
-Comin' Round

but it's really great
nonetheless, AND bouncing AND
soulful AND skillful

I am a happy man. :-)

so far greatest moment is in the intro someone humming Cream's "I Feel Free"

I left off of mama's with my thumb in the wind
The leaves on the ground, winter's comin again
Solid on the surface as I crumble within
But legends are made out of vulnerable men
So on the brink of death I still manage livin life
Cause so rarely in this world are these chances given twice
I indeed sold my soul, without glancing at the price
No instructions when I was handed this device
But with what I did get, I was more than generous
Put others over self on several instances
But I'm back on my feet without a hint of bitterness
And one way or another I shall have deliverance
So I say

;_;

BOODYBOODYBOODYBOODYROCKINEVERYWHERE

as per my recurring refrain since my hard drive death the other month - does anyone have copies of the versions of "nowhere" and "comin' round" that segue fully into missy/justin respectively at the end? those weren't on the album and i no longer have them :(

not that i was ever aware of these segues and their importance but i do appear to have the 'coming round' one

EVERYONE Have NONE of you heard the pre-album mixtape for this? It was called New South and it's not the one you can get on iTunes which is some random Greg Street compilation. It's a 19 track affair entirely produced by Timbaland with mostly Bubba but also "the Muddkatz" - Duddy Ken, Attitude, RIcky Rucker, Kiley Dean, Petey Pablo and it's all really damn good. All originals except for 'In the Mudd' which is a remix of In da Club by 50.

You can hear it for free here - http://grooveshark.com/#!/playlist/DJ+Enuff+and+Timbaland+Present+Bubba+Sparxxx+and+The+Mudd+Katz+New+South+The+Album+B4+The+Album/66065631 - but I will find a way to get a copy to y'all if you want. I don't know where I originally got it.

Oh man! I'd love a copy. Heard it once, never got a copy for myself.

I would appreciate this, yes.

me too

webmail me with your e-mail address and i'll get it to y'all? except ned can just check his fbook.

entirely produced by timbo?

well this should be a good indication of whether he has anything left in the tank or not

i may or might not liveblog this

"Band Leader" is pretty cool. The first few tracks sounded awfully similar production-wise, but for a pre-album mixtape, what can you expect, I guess.

his percussion/drums still knock harder than anyone else's when he tries tho, as "tell me ya wit it" attests to

awesome farty horns that almost sound like spongy, squishy synths on "tell me about the south"... and operatic background OOHHHOOOOHHHS!

is that polow da don rapping on "put it on me"?

lol @ timbo's "damn how long is this song?" at the BEGINNING of the 3-minute "that's him" and the track's made of these really short three-note guitar licks, stays outta the way of the rapping but they're catchy on their own

this isn't from now - it's from back in the day. right before deliverance came out in 2003.

but if you haven't heard deliverance, you should be rest assured that it's like this but most of the time even better.

oh no i'm a dumbass i thought there was a new timbo-produced bubba album coming out :(

i like deliverance but bubba isn't a favorite rapper or anything

and i thought this was new. don't laugh too hard

i mean this is hard enough to track down that it may as well be. :)
