i love how dude is a total rap nerd ... he drops so many references & has a pretty great / diverse selection of beats-from-rap-history & different styles ...

'on..' coming after the midrange-heavy rza beat on 'rain delay' is relieving

i really like how he sometimes lets the beats ride out for way after he's finished rapping. he's definitely a guy who has a strong relationship with the beats he chooses; deej otm calling him being a rap nerd. sucks that other songs get cut short mid bar tho

ha. as an aging rawkus nerd, i really appreciate curren$y's ongoing nerdy shouts to mos def -- the respiration quote on 'fashionably late,' "the potency of the beat is consistent with the fact that mos did it"...
― swvl, Sunday, 2 January 2011 03:50 (thirteen years ago) link
i don't think shouting out your producer gets to count as nerdy. ("resperation" quote, sure)
― tears of a self-clowning oven (The Reverend), Sunday, 2 January 2011 03:51 (thirteen years ago) link
haha yeah ok. still feel like there might inherently be something a little nerdy about working with mos def to begin with. (i mean this as a compliment!)
― swvl, Sunday, 2 January 2011 03:57 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah.

Apparently he's got a new album coming out next week? And then Pilot Talk III in April. Dude is one productive stoner.

Apparently he also has an Alchemist-produced mixtape in the works.

Just listening to Return to the Winners' Circle for the first time. On the all-kinds-of-rap nerd tip, dude quoting E40 and shouting out Mac Dre makes me love him even more.

Has anyone seen this dude live? Wondering if he plays with a band or what.
― champagne hippies trying to recapture their youth (Whitey on the Moon), Wednesday, 6 April 2011 17:58 (thirteen years ago) link
I've seen footage of him performing live w/ band, but it seems like he usually plays w/ a dj.
