Bubble Eye - Talkin’ Shit, Manly Shit
i think im just always gonna like straight forward shit like this most. sample, drums, raps.
I posted this already and somehow deleted it. At any rate, between this and the YP joint from my list, I’m starting to think Chi should just be like NY in ‘87 & just rock straight James Brown loops all the time
i never realized that owen nolan is jake one’s doppelganger.
Owen Nolan, one of the greatest San Jose Sharks of all time.
hella smooth
Droop-E - “Rossi Wine (Free My Mind)” feat. Kendrick Lamar
So, it’d be better if Droop-E’s verse wasn’t so literal and explanatory with the track’s imagery, but the slowed piano run suits his cadence well, and the whole thing works on an aesthetic level.
I also like how this is kind of an anti-ode-to-syrup record.
Droop-E: Don’t worry bout what’s in my cup / sippin’ on that purple stuff and I ain’t talkin’ syrup bruh
Kendrick: In the middle of the war zone I be on / sippin on a big bottle of that burgundy motherfuck your styrofoam
And they manage to work in that screwed sample of 40 Water (I think?) to further the point.
More Droop-E and Kendrick, please.
Hungry & Humble from the eldest Stevens progeny coming at some point.

Anyone know the story behind this video? Was this at a video shoot & they were just fuckin around on the break or something? Or was Pac just posted in the neighborhood? And what year was this? This is post-fame I’m assuming.
If this is post-fame-Pac-kickin-it, that’s a scene you wouldn’t find too many super star rappers back then/now. I couldn’t imagine Ross posted in the middle of Little Haiti like that with no body guards n shit.
