A Lo-Life always scheme
A Lo-Life after the American dream"
Rack-Lo - What's A Lo-Life To Me
(From Polo Classics mixtape; 2013)
I love a beatjack which puts a fresh twist on the song from whence it came. Peep Lo-Life O.G Rack-Lo having his wicked way with a Gang Starr classic and flipping & bouncing Code of The Streets into Code of A Thief. Fave Rack-Lo song I've heard since his 2000 single Spit In Ya Face.
PS: sincere R.I.P to Shifty Shellshock from the Butterfly band Crazy Town. I'm gonna hazard a guess that 80% of this blog's readership have dated at least 1 girl who was/is obsessed with that song. I hope Heaven got a hairdressers where he can keep his tips frosted.
💀@ that Shane Warne pic.
ReplyDeleteThe man who made me like cricket. R.I.P to the 👑
ReplyDeleteNu-Metal was pretty insufferable but I do have a soft spot for Butterfly & I just recently discovered Crazy Town did a remake of Only When I’m Drunk by Tha Alkaholiks. R.I.P. Shifty Shellshock.
ReplyDeleteListening now. Very unexpected 😆
ReplyDeleteNo one does remakes/beatjacks better than the polo Rican mafia
ReplyDeleteThirstins Whoa/The Truth one is the creme de la creme. Thirstins actually become one of my fav rappers lately, always slept on him
One of the funniest ever at least
ReplyDeleteI should listen to more Thirstin. I only know the Skilligan's Island CD.
ReplyDeleteHes kinda a genius but i suspect the epmd/rich homie quan style interchangeable album titles plus the recycling songs, beatjacks n bootleg vibe of everything he does held him back, cant prosper in the meat factory when youve the true heart of a thief
ReplyDeleteLike i thought max owned this beat but he just does the most lol:

ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Thirstin, totally not very familiar with him too but I checked out his Skillitary album (2004) and found a few songs I liked:
