EL-P

I remember when Flossin was first introducing me to Hip-Hop (and what a world it is!) I was knockin on El-P thinking he was too weird and out there, but he grew on me after a while. I guess I shouldn't be so quick to judge artists and what they do before I give them a fair chance, cause he became one of my favorites. Both lyrically and as a producer, hes different and out there which I guess I kinda like. It gives a person a break from the typical looped beats or "candy ass beats" as I like to call them.

Big ups to El-P!

CAGE-HELLS WINTER

This is my favorite song off of Hells Winter, it shows Cages story telling abilities off, along with showing his typical morbid subject matter. He is one of my Favorite MC's and always remained consistent not considering his most recent album "Depart from Me" I also love the production (although I'm not sure who did it?). All in all a good song, a good beat, and good lyrics. Its often compared with this song by Atmosphere:

You tell me which one you prefer? The first is more dark and morbid the whole way through. The Atmosphere one is more abrubt and shocking.
