Choppa scream loud like a new born child

"Never do my brother like Of Mice And Men
I guess I'm dead wrong in this life of sin
Bitches get treatin' like recyclin'
Baby momma and her patna say I'm triflin'"


Ezale - One Job
(From One Job single; 2026)


Mobby Brackins returns proper for 2026 after the Make Her Gig video and a couple of cameos. One Job only took around three weeks from initial snippet to official audio, which is the equivalent of three days in Ezale time. Pleased to report that he's consistent as ever with his ToNHTe Show-core brand of Mob Music. Ezale only got one job, to make music I can post on this blog, can't call in Sic Wit Tis in his full time job.

Related PS: R.I.P to Tone Capone who produced some of the greatest NorCal Rap songs of all time plus some Rap-A-Lot Records favourites. I'm gonna pick Devin's Georgy as my underrated Tone production of choice, purely because it seems like everyone except me hates that song. In fact, I think Devin himself hates that song because I once read a message board post where some guy who'd gone to see Devin live bumped into him outside the club and asked him if he was going to perform it and Devin gave him the gas face.

Craic Mack Part 2

Everlast - Black Jesus
(From Eat At Whitey's album; 2000)


Another old Everlast single I hated when it was in MTV rotation which is now my choon. How I learned to stop hating and love Everlast singles: do NOT listen to them via their videos. The visualz make me sick like Strawberry Quik. Black Jesus is not so much word salad as phrase salad, but he laced this shit with one helluva tasty dressing. Where Ends sounds like the prototype for Bubba Sparxxx's Deliverance, Black Jesus sounds like what I wish the Chris Cornell of Soundgarden album produced by Timbaland had sounded like.

09 til Infinity (part 6)

BunnaB ft. YKNiece & Black Queen - K.O.
(From K.O. single; 2026)


Haughty hoes come in all shapes and sizes like women's underwear. More Back To The Future-Rap from Atlanta's Dame of Disrespect & a couple of her coven. ATL went from Brick Squad to Chick Squad. Keep 'em comin', Bunna luv, because I can't get enough of this stuff.

In The Trunk (Part 3)

Trunk Boiz & Seiji Oda - Never
(From Right Back In EP; 2026)


That Trunk Boiz & Seiji Oda EP is like my favourite present on Christmas, it's too gifted. Here's a video for my third fave track from It. Only Northern California could devise a Rap song which combines En Vogue and Ian Paisley.

Bonus beats: the Float On sample in Go Dumb by Trunk Boiz & Seiji Oda reminded me that Aardman Animations once did an advert for Cadbury's Cream Eggs with an interpolation of that very song. One thing us Brits do particularly well is erotic TV adverts for chocolate; competition is none, we remain on top like Carol Vorderman's bum. Me? Scorpio, but I'd like to get my chops around Aquarius.

Weekend On Mart's




The Johnny Ryall of the Rap-internet is back up in this bitch like progestogen. Life is Too $hort, filled with stuff, don't know what for, I wanna talk Cramps deep cuts. So, ur boi Martaveli AKA Loaded Lux Interior was excited about the recent Cramps album of unreleased 1977 demos which Henry Rollins & Ian MacKaye put together, mainy because it includes the first recording of the ultimate Cramps deep cut Weekend On Mars. Would this 1977 demo version be the definitive version I was hoping for? Sadly, no. It's on a par with the the 1979 demo version, but not as good as the 1984 live version from the I Ain't Nuthin' But A Gorehound single. To date, that's the best version due to Poison Ivy's buzzsaw guitar, but ur boi is hesitant to call it definitive since Lux Interior doesn't go Evil Elvis on the "but ima gonna take you for a weekend on Mars" line like he does on the 1977 and 1979 versions. Why you wanna do that, Lux, huh?

Craic Mack

Has a rapper ever suffered a more embarrassing identity crisis than Everlast? The fella went from slangin' pizza pies to drinkin' Guinness pints to singin' like Chris Rea to rebranding himself as Necro & Ill Bill's Uncle Doughie. When his Whitey Ford Sings The Blues album dropped and the videos for What It's Like and Ends were in rotation on MTV I was equally amused and appalled by the sight of him in a cowboy hat strumming an acoustic guitar. The cracka who made Syndication, that's what I called E'. But now he's wearin' a Stetson hat like Paul C. Revisiting What It's Like and Ends decades on minus the videos, I'm gonna have to slang humble pie and hyperbole in the same sentence: both songs are #actually killer choonz which are so obvious prototypes for Bubba Sparxxx's Deliverance. Ends is THE jam 4 me: an ode to lost souls who've been crushed by the 'Murican Dream with a nifty interpolation of a Whodini classic.

Everlast - Ends
(From Whitey Ford Sings The Blues album; 1998)


Another thing Whitey Ford Sings The Blues shares with Bubba's Deliverance is that it features a bonus track which is so good, it should have been the album's street single. Deliverance has Disappear, Whitey Ford Sings The Blues has Next Man. Like Ends, it's another song which is an ode to lost souls who've been crushed by the 'Murican Dream, but instead of sounding like some proto-Deliverance shit, it's delivered in the style of Sporty Thievz. No lie, this shit sounds like it coulda/shoulda had a fish-eye lens Hype Williams video.

MC Ez


There's snippets of a new Ezale song for me to obsess over like it's 2016 again. One of the many things I like about Ezale's videos is that they always feature his same homies who were all up in the 5 Minutes Of Funktown and Foreal Foreal videos back in 2013/2014. We're all on this journey together like a Jumanji flick.

We should probably talk about P-Lo's new song with Clyde Carson, IamSu and Ezale. The beat-switches annoyed me initially, and I'm gonna attribute them to the influence of That Canadian Nonce™. But the song is growing on me like human microbiota.
