http://potholesinmyblog.com/heems-nehru-jackets-mixtape/

EDIT: got it

Way better than Kool A.D.'s Tape

pretty decent

do you guys listen to anything that isn't shit

^implying you have superior taste

hahahaha

the great thing is that all of the 25 songs are good

dude whats the point of jocking all this derivative hipster trash when you can listen to wiz khalifa, drake, nicki minaj, jay-z and kanye west

i'll check this out but, as lame as this sounds, i have sort of "lost faith" in das racist now that they seem more intent on fucking with their audience than making good music

idk this is probably better than anything das racist has done recently

2nd best rapper with bitch hair out

Heems is cool. He fluctuates in and out, sometimes he's flowing and super on point lyrically, other times it seems like cruise control and he's just spewing nonsense.

I really like mike finito as a producer. The tracks are all fast and have some pop charm to them, while still retaining new york boom bap.

saying any of these beats are boom bap is a serious insult. Lots of Indian behi-music and samples mostly

boom bap 4 yo face

i'm not so sure about that being boom bap. i just find it an insulting term because people who do modern boom bap are extremely bad at it. boom bap was usually characterized by loud horns and drums and thin bass

regardless of production style semantics finito is a bangin producer

bangles is just on another fuckin planet of banger

Yeah, it probably has the strongest verse by heems in the whole mixtape as well.
[QUOTE]Learn how to be figurative, less literal
Hyper literate, hyper referential
Rap too minimal
Trying to write for The Guardian about Pakistani generals
Old Guard sentinels
All god father with sensitive sweet sexy similies for your mind sense and shit
Dimension spins
[B]I can't drink as much
Stop smoking blunts
Don't split the dutch
Think I'll quit the drugs
Kicked to the curb, too much
You on whose nuts?
Still puff the herb
Dorothy & Herb, get my art collection up
Still can drink a little
Poor myself another cup[/B][/QUOTE]

I like how he portrays the quick relapse into drugs/alcohol again.

heems has a label now and he signed this cat big baby ghandi
single is pretty strong, but the tape is lacking. Still, i think the kid has some original swag and might blow up.

lakutis would've had the best verse on swate had it not been for kool a.d's fucking takeover of that song at the end
