Clipping - Midcity (noise rap)

yah they rule hard!
snipes is a legend.
daveed stars in hamilton!

Pretty damn impressive album

xxp - I saw them at Terminal. Hutson is tight with the dudes who live(d) there.

xp - you should have come to the SF show on the 11th ... it was great. They had a harpist.

i know i saw ton of video but i had to do my radio show :(

you gonna be at El Rio tonight?

yah my gf is djing

cool I will tell you in person how awesome it was

it's their year

remember really loving "Work Work" a couple of years back though I didn't really investigate the rest of their catalogue. totally floored to find out dude is the new love interest on this season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (not to mention in Hamilton).

also they are up for a hugo award!

And he was on Sesame Street

friends, they have gone deeper into the sickness

Indeed they have. Someone on the tracks rollout thread was complaining about the decline of speed rapping. There Existed an Addiction to Blood sports at least a couple of fine instances. And 'Piano Burning' is classic for its literalism and shameless length alone.

"Blood of the Fang" is such an addictive track

Run For Your Life is one of the most electrifying things I've ever heard tbh

'bloodless'

bloodless insofar as bled dry

this is only their second most brilliant album but that's only because S&M (lol) was an all-timer

This album is glorious

:)

did you hear Splendor & Misery? if not I think you will be blown away by that too

I will go back to that after I finish this (also amazing) Sudan Archives album

fair, and I will give SA a listen

I still haven't gotten to the other clipping. album because I am very stuck on "Story 7"

fair, but the other one also has a good story episode

Forgot to post earlier but yes, spectacular album all around.

"The Deep EP" is fire

Three quick songs about merpeople descended from drowned slaves rising up and taking over the world to stave off global warming is basically going to be immediate catnip to me

love that one

y'all remember

I am more and more into "He Dead" and "The Show" these days

splendor & misery is v cool

dude is the new love interest on this season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (not to mention in Hamilton)

If the clipping. team ever committed to a full-blown stage production I would be there opening night (or, more realistically given the Hamilton association, several months later at the earliest).

currently obsessed with "Body and Blood"

that song RULES

love this band

Already happened, well Snipes and Diggs. Surprised this hasn't came up on this thread yet: https://patty.bandcamp.com/album/patty-the-revival

That whole Patty album is brilliant imo.

Bits of 'Body and Blood' look suspiciously like braggadocio to me.

https://clppng.bandcamp.com/track/chapter-319
Back for obvious reasons w/ the first official release of 2014 track “Knees On The Ground” + a searing new one since the relevant people clearly didn’t get the message the first time around. If you thought being the only homicide detective on this train might’ve softened Diggs’ edge then, well, no, it certainly hasn’t.

Another new album due out October 23rd!

He's great. It was about 18 months or two years ago when it all came together for me to realize that the Clipping dude, the guy from Hamilton and Rainbow's goofy brother on Black-ish were all the same guy.

xxp - if he were from Minneapolis and not from Oakland, that fact would have been inescapable to you (as it was me)
