Bobby Woody - Roland (Telegraph Ave Remix)


Hey Trekkies, and Nerds! I'm feeling bad because I realized that I didn't put on my signature introduction. I've really been out of it, so I'm going to revamp it for this one. Ayo, it's me: Bill Nye's 2nd cousin aka the ORIGINAL black nerd aka the REAL Carlton Banks aka the Blacker Hacker aka Big Ghost's Prodigy aka the 3rd realest nigga in the game aka Game of Spades, but you may just know me by fake name on the streets: Waverly Spades. Today I have with me, a friend of mine, Bobby Woody's latest track. I haven't put him on here since his "Rollin In Da Deep." (hahah been a while, dude.) While Bobby is a great rapper, I've always felt that he was producer first, and this one is his latest beat. (This is an instrumental remix of Telegraph Ave from Childish Gambino's new album "Because The Internet.") His rapping is fast paced, all over the place, and confident in his insecurities and his beats are a reflection of that. When it starts, you have no idea where it's going to go, but then, you hear that "Chicks Love Bobby Woody." It's a lot of the little things that make this track. The piano lines are easily a standout. That weird percussive synth thing that plays around with the hats. This dude even sings for a bit (or at least I think that's him. I didn't hear that part in the orignal. lol.) Overall, this is a great track. I was listening to the original nonstop before I heard this. Good ass job.

Chox-Mak Ft. DJ YRS Jerzy - Final Destination (Prod. By DR.G)



As soon as the beat started, I knew this was going to be dope. Dr. G painted a soundscape that is heavenly and omniscient. It's like conscious, gospel rap music lol.   I don't know which one is Chox-Mak and the which is DJ YRS Jerzey, but each verse is amazing. At times, it gets humbly braggadocious with lines like "My brother told me 'you could rub elbows with Kendrick.'" I wouldn't compare these guys to Kendrick just yet, but this song is good. A bit typical wannabe conscious/not thug rapper for me, but good nonetheless. The hook is one of those hooks made just because you need a hook. I don't pay much attention to it lol. Whoever that is on the 2nd verse, that's my favorite verse.
"I married this rap shit. Gotta get her out the kitchen."

JproD - Trill Shit, I Really Mean That


Hey there, nerds! I must apologize for the leave of absence. I told myself to calm down until I finish applying to colleges. I only have one college to apply to left (UArts), so I think I'm doing good and I can start blogging again. I'm also really motivated right now because you guys are sending me great stuff and I feel like people actually like this, so I'm going to do my best to post at least once a week! I mean it, this time! Make sure you guys tweet me to keep me to it, okay? haha.


I'm trying to go through a lot of stuff from my inbox in order, so here's something from like 2 months ago (lol). JproD sent this and another track to my inbox. The first track was weak. I just wasn't feeling it from the first 7 seconds of listening. This one, I thought would be better. The beat is trill and nice.  That's about the best part of this. The song itself is corny. JproD's lyrics are basic in my honest opinion. "1 for the money. 2 for the show. 3 for her to get ready to drop it low." This nigga said some shit about flipping chicken wings in the first bar. That's disrespectful to the producer (whom he didn't even credit)! I swear almost every line in this song, I've heard a variation of it somewhere else and the ones that weren't were the corny as fuck lines. Sorry these long nights of college applications have made me a very cold person. Welp. Shout out to this guy for at least staying on beat.
