Wyclef made her rich. Rohan made her crazy.

I suspected the tracks would come out sounding rushed as if they just wanted the money ASAP and I was right.





As far as the whole slavery thing, you should have taken up residence in another country that has an easier tax system. I agree the US is a pain but taxes are something we all know we have to pay every year. You made enough money you still had plenty to live even after taxes. Or were you living a bourgeois lifestyle burning money at light speed?

2 days down the road and I'm finding myself really liking the new song.





I mean, it still sounds like something Phoenix Orion woulda put out 12 years ago. But whatever, she's serving them suckas a cold dish with both middle fingers fully extended.





I for one gotta applaud that.

 

[batmon]

Ive always been a fan of her MCing.


She can go "big words" w/ out being exhausting and pretentious like a Talib or many of your Jibber-Jabber cats from her era.








That beat doesnt sound like the original shit she's rhymin' to.

 

[yuichi]

Sounds like a blend of Nas and Quasimoto rapping over a Flying Lotus beat; which is not that bad.

 

[DocMcCoy]

New shit.

"crocheted train wreck"

Stephen Hawking just told me that amount of time cannot exist.

 

[HarveyCanal]

There's just something not right with the tone of her voice. She no longer sounds artistic as if she actually wants someone to pay attention to her. It's just dry ranting with no pot of gold at the end of her rainbow of isms.

This is dead-on.

 

[DOR]

The change in her voice reminds me of people aging that smoke a lot.

It's boring and a waste of a Slits sample.

For real? I thought I recognised it, but it didn't register that it was the Slits. What's the original? (Please tell me it's off Return Of The Giant Slits, because I never had that album)

I hear it now, and I'm ashamed of myself for not catching it. I used to stan hard for the Slits back in the day. I was thinking the sped-up guitar was a sample too - maybe Mike Oldfield or something like that.





It's grown on me a little, although not to the extent that I'm eagerly anticipating the album or anything.

 

[4YearGraduate]

This is absolutely horrid. BALZING PANFLUTE





Looks like Lauren just got a rhyming dictionary!

"IM GONNA GO IN THE BOOTH AND READ THIS LIST OK GUYS JUST HOLD TIGHT AND DONT EAT MY THAI FOOD WHILE IM IN THERE"

 

[Grandfather]

this song is beyond terrible, dam.
