beatboxed 'comin round the mountain' sounds like pure genius
Which track was this?
― BARMS, Wednesday, 23 March 2005 15:30 (nineteen years ago) link
That was 'Disappear'.

From LAST year's country thread (and I think from hip-hop thread last year too):
So far, I'm liking the new album, but I'm also pretty disappointed by it; there doesn't seem to be any country-oriented stuff, which sucks, but I guess Bubba has to move on. So far my favorite track is "Wonderful," but that could change. The Pablo track's good, too. -- xhuxk (xedd...), October 24th, 2005.
Actually i think its that country-motif stuff that was painting him into a corner -- deej.. (clublonel...), October 24th, 2005.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe, but that doesn't mean it wasn't his best stuff. (Plus, I'm not sure *why* it would paint him into a corner. There's as much possibility in incorporating country as in *not* incorporating country. And there's definitely more possibility in incorporating both country *and* non-country. Getting rid of it makes his horizons *less* wide, not more.) (That goes for David Banner too, by the way.) -- xhuxk (xedd...), October 24th, 2005.
-- xhuxk (xedd...), October 25th, 2005.
Also, no Timbaland, which deej also seemed to think takes Bubba out of a corner, though I don't see why that would be true either, given Timbos perpetual restlessness. Maybe those who think the restlessness is un-Bubbalicious would expect him to shine without it, but paint'n'corner seems to be the wrong metaphor.
-- Frank Kogan (edcasua...), October 25th, 2005.
------Actually, I don't think Frank had heard the new album then, though. And the version I was listening to last October was a "rough mix," and since then, two ignorable songs from the original version have been replaced by two different equally ignorable songs on the new one. I still want to think the album's a keeper, but maybe that's just wishful thinking. Whether it's a keeper or not, it's by far the worst and most marginal album Bubba's made.

I left off of mama's with my thumb in the windThe leaves on the ground, winter's comin againSolid on the surface as I crumble withinBut legends are made out of vulnerable menSo on the brink of death I still manage livin lifeCause so rarely in this world are these chances given twiceI indeed sold my soul, without glancing at the priceNo instructions when I was handed this deviceBut with what I did get, I was more than generousPut others over self on several instancesBut I'm back on my feet without a hint of bitternessAnd one way or another I shall have deliveranceSo I say

fuckkkkk.
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 :(
― liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Monday, 16 April 2012 11:54 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:24 (eleven years ago) link
I would appreciate this, yes.

― sisilafami, Friday, 10 August 2012 19:37 (eleven years ago) link
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
― heiswagger (rennavate), Friday, 10 August 2012 23:47 (eleven years ago) link
"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.
― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:23 (eleven years ago) link
his percussion/drums still knock harder than anyone else's when he tries tho, as "tell me ya wit it" attests to
― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:27 (eleven years ago) link
awesome farty horns that almost sound like spongy, squishy synths on "tell me about the south"... and operatic background OOHHHOOOOHHHS!
― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:32 (eleven years ago) link
is that polow da don rapping on "put it on me"?
― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:38 (eleven years ago) link
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
― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:42 (eleven years ago) link
this isn't from now - it's from back in the day. right before deliverance came out in 2003.
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:53 (eleven years ago) link
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
