Busdriver

Yeah I have that too but admit to only giving it a couple of plays. His freestyling on youtube is solid too.

Yeah, the only guy i can liken him to is Aesop Rock, but i think the production with Busdriver is better.

Jhelli Beam comes out 6/9

Can't wait for it.

New album around and I'm only one listen in but it hasn't whacked me around the head as much as I hoped it would. Further listens required.

The only album I have of Busdriver's is Roadkillovercoat. I just got... and have been listening to it through a couple times. Really cool. I can only say I don't love about 5 out of 12 songs. The stand out track is definitely "The Troglodyte Wins," but there are others on that jam pretty hard too.

I would highly suggest getting "Fear of a Black Tangent" and "Temporary Forever", both do a really good job at showcasing his talent in each song, I spin both of them on a pretty frequent basis.

I really liked "Jhelli Beam", it was on the same level as "Fear of Black Tangent" for me, which says a lot about how much I liked it. Props go out to my man Kirby for hooking me up a day before it came out, which was awesome because I've been to Best Buy twice in the past two days and they still don't have it :/

They probably won't get it, sadly.
I hate the best buy in my area, but it's the only store I have.

LoathsomePete · 06-10-2009, 10:08 PM

I hear you, I went in today looking for [Prototype] but I couldn't find it anywhere in the store and whenever I tried to ask an employee they ignored me. It pains me to go into that store and only strengthens my opinion on downloading music if it means I can avoid **** wits like those. However I have found some rare **** at that store, namely "As If We Existed" by Solilaquists of Sound. They do have a Busdriver spot in the rap isle, but they only had "roadkillovercoat".

Kirby · 06-10-2009, 10:14 PM

I wish they had RoadKillOvercoat here.

I really want a job so I can order **** on the net.
