biggie - the what (super chicken version)
Biggie & Meth vs. Niney The Observer.
So Notorious is out. It looks pretty boring. Not to hate, but biopics are all the same, blah blah childhood blah blah first big break, blah blah oh shit I’m so famous now, and in the background you get different decades’ lamps and news clips and shit.
Someday we’ll get a hip-hop film that’s as interesting visually/narratively as the music is sonically/lyrically: Krush Groove meets I’m Not There or 8 Mile meets Natural Born Killers. Or Wild Style meets Naked Lunch. Or Juice meets I Am Cuba, that would be the shit. In the meantime we’ll have to settle for Mephistophididdy’s latest cash-in.

Well, I does my best. I really need to find a cracked version of Ableton Live, because doing it by ear obviously ain’t cutting it for better trained earholes.
I gave it another listen and it’s the 3rd verse. That would be because the track is played by humans and not processed. I might should go in there and adjust the tempo there. So please, everyone, hold your breath and don’t listen to it until I get around to that.

“Or Juice meets I Am Cuba”
My brain’s working three times as hard trying to imagine a ‘Juice’ meets ‘I Am Cuba’…also that OBD Four Tet mix was dope, I forgot to respond sooner about it…

It’s not hard to imagine, you just have to imagine a visionary Soviet director coming to New York to shoot a movie about the hip-hop revolution in high-contrast black and white military infrared film. Oh, wait.
‘Soy hip-hop…si, hip-hop…’
Or, just watch Ghost Dog. It’s close enough.
Anyway, that blew your mind? Some crazy person published their 60,000 word rant about light sabers and cat-eating and artificial intelligence in the comment section of your Henry-James-referencing review of 8 Diagrams. Now that’s mind blowing. http://brandonsoderberg.blogspot.com/2007/12/next-to-hood-wu-tangs-8-diagrams.html
