its hard for me to get into "new" underground artists, i usually stay with the cats that were big in the underground boom in the late 90s/early2000's
i guess recently that dude reks is pretty good, altho didnt really listen to much besides the say goodnite joint, blaq poet and nygz puttin out good stuff
last person i got put onto in like the last 4 years that i really liked was vakill, he needs to put out another album its been a while since worst fears confirmed
What the hell are you smoking ?
Eso is nice as hell on the mic.
I bring the gory oratory yes demorally derogatory
Mad expository expedition in your auditory
Categories don't apply
Your mind's eye is blinded by my battle raps
Like cateracts your habitat is Halifax
Once I run you out your native city
Shay's committee is pretty witty we show no pity
I deflate then separate wack MCs who replicate
Every trace of Esoteric found up in their record crate
I devastate, homosapian metabolism
Like human catacalysm inbreded with an anachronism
My precision makes incisions on your acrotism
Battling is a bad decision leaving you with aphorisms
I whoop *%! like masochism dominatrix
That's the basics
Hologram brought The Matrix
To fake kids
Fifty dead MCs to my credit
Learn from the druid better known as Esoteric
Sick verse, you can't front.
Master builder
Rap British Bulldog boy ask Mathilda
Cats with the steel young god
The soul benders with uncontrollable tempers
Leave you dead in your Nikes like you was heaven's gate cult members
Yonder yo the, money folder with that funky odour
Don't get it twisted like I'm speakin' with the tongue of Yoda
You stay behind the bushes like a cop that's under quota
I'm sayin' *@%@ the Bushes like a foreign country soldier
Shay's worthy my family play dirty
We continue to diss you discontinue like a J-30
(Money wants you killed) Yo you better tell cuz'
To rely on M-16s like D-12 does
Whether it's the line about bushes/Bushes
or the M16 line (eminem 16's) some amazing wordplay right there
Took some time for me to get used to it but dude's flow is disgustingly ill.
I've listened to tons and tons of hip hop, underground, mainstream w/e and would like to say that i'm extremely knowledgable on it. For some reason,nothing sounds quite like JMT/AOTP to me. I feel like they are so damn amazing but it looks like i'm the only one on NT who feels that way
I guess Isee something different in them than everyone else.
I feel you though, a lot of newer underground is wack. I still bump older underground heavily.
As for Vakill, dude has sick punchlines and his albums so far have been great, I just don't like his flow.
Anyway, more heat:
I haven't seen Canibus mentioned yet so... here we go:
A personal favorite:
The end of his second verse always has me
A classic:
Canibus even outshines Redman.
FREESTYLE:
Lizakers got a nice list up, a lot of heat on that.
I'm also happy to see Louis Logic mentioned
Reason I posted a lot of AOTP/JMT is because I think they are the best
I listen to tons more than them though, so from now on every post I'll make will be just 1-2 songs from a grip of different artists.
ENJOY!
I gotta mention this though, one the best freestyles i've ever heard.
Diabolic and Technique went IN!
