Maybe not everyone's definition of underground, but...

Lil Troy - Wanna Be a Baller

Not to sidetrack too much, but my friend brought over this track by Lil Troy one day that was hilarious. It was like a country ballad type of song with 808 drums and Lil Troy screaming about how each one of these girls is "just a bitch in my book". Has anybody heard this? It's terrible and funny at the same time. Mostly terrible.

Who Falls Apart? I like that song. I haven't listened to the Nonce in a while. their World Ultimate LP had some good tracks on it. I can't stand the mixtapes song anymore though.
