that's pretty funny. i was in the same boat with that beenie man line.
Even though Blood on the Leaves is the best song on here, it seems weird to use a sample of Strange Fruit just to make another song whining about hoes. and once again he samples a recent electronic song and makes it work. i like this album a surprising amount.

In America, maybe. In the UK it got to #3.
My apologies if you're surprised.
fuck. sounds wayyyy better on the laptop. R.I.P. COMPUTER SPEAKERS 2006-2013
With nods to his interpolations/quoting of Lords' "Chief Rocka" and C-Murder's "Down For My N****z."
The Deep Purple cover actually did quite a bit better on the US charts (#53 vs #88).
b/w
Never thought it was all that great a song.
it's the most remarkably ignorant album ive heard since..... ever?
I listened to it 4 times in a row at the house. (It's short enough that you can do it.) Haven't given it the car test yet, but I will be real soon!
And I love it too. New classic?
Relax, I'm playing. I do love it though.
Agreed.
Not a fan of wall of sound.
I like Deep Purples version ok.
Edit: nevermind. Just read about how he was trying to avoid leaks.
Wait...does that mean Capleton is God??
Who else sung Beenie Man's "Memories" line?? It's bugging me. I know it's a classic 90s era song. Bush Babees?? Mos Def?? (Or both?) Born Jamericans??
EDIT.
Damn it, it's "Travelin' Man." I feel stupid for not remembering that right off the bat. LOVE that song.

Yeezus Complex.
the un-self-conscious exposition gets pretty hilarious/embarrassing sometimes.
"I'm into high fashion."
"[As between Jay and I] I'm always in the darker mood."
"I'm into simplicity now; it takes me a LOT less time to get dressed these days."
