"Dong Lover"? What is this, a Childish Gambino song?

[endoftherebellion]

I don't know if I've ever disagreed with someone more about something being "amazing". To each his own (and I know Dong Lover has a lot of fans on this site) but I had to turn that song off half-way through because the lyrics were making me cringe.

And I thought my post was hyperbolic.

EARL before OF (went by Sly) >>>>>> EARL in OF.

Damn - how old was he when he did that? A baby? His rhyming ability is insane. Nas did Illmatic when he was 17 right? I'm not saying Earl is going to make another Illmatic (and it would be weird if he did just put out a Nas cover album) but certainly he's on some over level, right?

[endoftherebellion]

I know man, it's pretty amazing. He was 15, I believe -- maybe 14. All the stuff from the 'Sly' era was pre-16. I'm really excited for his future, and as much as I like the OF stuff, he doesn't need the crutch (for lack of better word) of rape/murder/etc.

[nathansmart]

I wonder what's up with him. I thought it was boarding school but they say that it's not true so who knows?

That's all bullshit. Not to mention creepy.

I don't really see any reason to think it's bullshit. It seems legit.

Creepy? Absolutely.

They (the rest of OF) have all debunked it. :shrug:

To combat the leak of the "radio-friendly" version of their new album, The Beastie Boys are streaming the whole uncensored thing on their website:

Pete Rock & Smif N Wessun "That's Hard" feat. Styles P & Sean Price by duckdown

damn

[endoftherebellion]

damn

Stacked full of legends. Nice.


Not sure if you're into hardcore/punk much, but Sean P. did a 7" with the band Cold World that's awesome.

Apparently I booked this year's Rock the Bells and forgot about it. I mean, seriously. Holy shit.

If you guys like Tyler and Earl, listen to Death Grips "Ex Military"
Very powerful horrorcore, also follows a fucked-up-story formula, and their whole album is up for a free download.

And Frank Ocean posted a preview of a new song from his upcoming album (YES!)

If Spank Rock doesn't drop his sophomore disc this year I'll be so bummed. 5 years is too long between LP's! Still remember picking up YoYoYoYoYo on a whim during release day.

Finally. I would have preferred more of a sequel with all Spank Rock & XXXChange but after five years, I'll take what I can get.

http://spankrock.net/ is getting updated more frequently as well.
