Homeboy Sandman - Come Thru
(From the vaults; 2016/the internet; 2021)
Much prefer this late-2021 loosie to Sandman's new 2022 single tbh. My favourite Rap egghead on some Ahmad type shit - a Back In The Day jam on 3 different levels since it's an unreleased song from 2016 which kinda sounds like a lost Fondle 'Em Records single from 1999. There's scienz of life in the old dog yet.
Press this song up on the cheapest quality vinyl, stick a fake Fondle 'Em logo on it, and then sell it to Cousin Balki for £500. Now that's what I call a mug shot.
Definitely better than his new song, for sure.
ReplyDeleteDoubt any of the yutes would have given him any grief when he was teachin'. Homeboy is a giant.
Yeah, I'm 6'2 and when I saw him & Edan live he towered over me.
ReplyDeleteThat Sandman and Edan show was mad fun.
ReplyDeleteWonnit just, I was oblivious to the first Sandman song over Edan production until they performed it that night.
