Check out Billy Woods from Brooklyn. His work with the Super Chron Flight Brothers is pretty dope. Give the album 'Emergency Powers' a listen.

Lupe Fiasco - The Show Must Go On

When I first heard this on the radio a few days ago I'm like "he sampled modest mouse? seriously?"

That's called making a dogshit song into a decent one through the magic of sampling.

KILLER use of sampling there. Love what they did with that "Float On" melody. LASERS in 3 days!!!!

Speaking of hiphop artists sampling great artists...

I've been bumping Childish Gambino nonstop lately. Sleigh Bells? Animal Collective? Grizzly Bear? Awesome samples.

Childish Gambino - "New Prince (Crown On The Ground)"
 
I have seen Lupe twice live and both times he stunk more than two piles of shit. The first occasion he had "technical issues", which I can appreciate, so he mopped around the stage and was lacklustre. The second time was a month ago and once again he has "issues with his sampler", and proceeded to throw a hissy fit on stage. It was at a festival and no one else had any issues the whole day.

The show must go on? Take a spoonful of cement and harden the fuck up. A born showman will put on a show no matter what.
