Yeah, Spitta obviously seems to care about hitting an aesthetic more than covering his bases. I've noticed 5 of the 6 albums he's recorded (Jet Files) being the exception) have been recorded mostly with one producer. xps

& from a business perspective it's also an incredibly efficient way to pump out music

J0rdan S., Thursday, 21 April 2011 00:06 (thirteen years ago) link

well fucking awesome! i didn't even know about this ep. thanks y'all!

yeah, gonna go cop this too.

My bad Van Buren! (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 21 April 2011 03:29 (thirteen years ago) link

I'm pretty sure that isn't possible.

can we talk abt how alchemist kills the shit out of this

geeks, dweebs, nerds & lames (D-40), Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:06 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah it's great, that bassline mentioned upthread for blood sweat and gears w/fiend is really an amazing bit of looping, it feels a bit "off" like it shouldn't work but the way he does it works magically imo

O da Huge Manatee (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:08 (thirteen years ago) link

was talking about this w /a friend earlier but am i wrong or does alchemist kinda sound better w/ C than Ski

geeks, dweebs, nerds & lames (D-40), Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:21 (thirteen years ago) link

it's a different vibe, no? With Ski he sounds more like he's constantly floating on a cloud of weed smoke. he sounds more awake here. i fucks with both though
love the hell out of what Fiend is doing at the moment, btw

rizzx, Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:30 (thirteen years ago) link

This collabo is an excellent look for both dudes. Both Alch and Ski seem to work effortlessly with C$y tho, wouldn't be able to pick a 'better' fit atm.

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:44 (thirteen years ago) link

Loving this, but isn't "the Type" like the third time spitta has made a chorus out of Big Boi lyrics? Maybe even all from Aquemini?

champagne hippies trying to recapture their youth (Whitey on the Moon), Thursday, 21 April 2011 16:47 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah, that feels kinda lazy at this point, but P and Spitta on a dope Alc beat overcomes that imo

banjee trillness (The Reverend), Thursday, 21 April 2011 17:26 (thirteen years ago) link

'the type'...u crazy for this one alc

love how the beat fades out and then fades back in with prodigy's booming voice

the square root of minus one is i something uhh (tpp), Thursday, 21 April 2011 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link

"love how the beat fades out and then fades back in with prodigy's booming voice"

Yah, excellent. Ive listened to The Type about 10 times in the last 24 hours, normally not my style.

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Thursday, 21 April 2011 18:40 (thirteen years ago) link

curren$y should work with sid roams too (has this happened?)

J0rdan S., Saturday, 27 August 2011 07:03 (twelve years ago) link

not on the tape btw even tho it has a drama drop

J0rdan S., Saturday, 27 August 2011 07:03 (twelve years ago) link

for real i could get down with a whole album of wayne going "and i'll still break her off like a chair leg" if he was rapping over some chill curren$y beats and letting his mind wander a bit ("yellow hearted... lemon meringue")

J0rdan S., Saturday, 27 August 2011 07:06 (twelve years ago) link

heh, didn't recognize this as the "elevators" beat initially \(o_O)/

J0rdan S., Saturday, 27 August 2011 07:56 (twelve years ago) link

damn, never saw this before. he totally kills the "hard in the paint" beat

dying at this

bronytheus (some dude), Thursday, 14 June 2012 13:58 (eleven years ago) link

i like the new 1 a lot more than i thought i would

johnny crunch, Thursday, 14 June 2012 14:06 (eleven years ago) link

"squarey cubes" is like the proto-"fanute"

J0rdan S., Thursday, 14 June 2012 15:14 (eleven years ago) link

but that's what tip actually says. i never would've heard anything besides the actual french lyric if it hadn't been referenced multiple times on ilx.

bronytheus (some dude), Thursday, 14 June 2012 15:20 (eleven years ago) link

some lyric sites have it as "not even square, he cube" -- maybe that's wrong tho idk, but it at least makes sense

lamborghini persie (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 14 June 2012 15:23 (eleven years ago) link

ha wow my mind is blown, that probably IS what he's really saying.

bronytheus (some dude), Thursday, 14 June 2012 16:14 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i looked that up when rev first that posted that currensy tweet and it was a total o_o moment for me

lamborghini persie (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 14 June 2012 16:52 (eleven years ago) link

went to listen to The Stoned Immaculate yesterday but spotify put the clean version on my phone :/

New Jet City is pretty nice. I really like the beat on "Choosin" despite the Wiz verse.

yeah the little flute or whatever is awesome

Number None, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:36 (eleven years ago) link

does this break out of his holding pattern at all?

The Reverend, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 22:50 (eleven years ago) link

this is his best release in a while, feels like stretching out of his sound while maintaining aesthetic

the guests help with that. love french montana's hook and verse

bish (bosch), don't kill my vibe (rennavate), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 23:12 (eleven years ago) link

does this break out of his holding pattern at all?
