"Emcees be suckin' like black holes
It's like their work was done at Habro
Tryna dog me out because they think my style is Alpo
But F**K NO!
Tell an enemy that I’m the pedigree
Feed him kibbles n bits until he dribble 'n' spit
Pitiful shit is what I am hearing on the airwaves
That stuff is soon to die out like that jheri curl hair phase"
Edan - Eyeblink (2nd version)
(From no idea where; 200?)
Here at The Martorialist we don't approve of jheri curl disses, but we do approve of this Edan song.
Eyeblink is a Top 3 song on Edan's debut CD-R album, but here's a 2nd version of it which is even better. It's the same beat and lyrics, but with re-recorded vocals where he delivers his lines with more boldness. Song is that vintage super-scientific smartarse
Percee's Boutique type Edan shit where he says
"as a syllable spitter, I kill a bullshitter/my rhymes are skull-grippers which frustrate ya like dull scissors". Lewis Recordings or one of youse boutique raer materialz labels to stop effin' around and give
Artchitecture the deluxe remastered reissue treatment on CD with this song and
Drop Some Smooth Lyrics as bonus cuts. Make it happen like Ultramagnetic.
My copy of that
thst book about independent Rap circa 1995 to 2005 arrived a few days ago. Alas, the author doesn't argue the case why Edan & his m8 Eric "Skillz" Ferguson were a better Rap duo than Mos Def & Talib Kweli. And on that note, I let the facts float: Mos Def & Kweli have
two killer tracks together, while Edan & Ferguson have
three killer tracks together.
(Had to edit this post innit.)
