My Kitchen

Homeboy Sandman - Yup. Do It!
(From YouTube; 2021)



Similar vybz to Conjugal Visit To The Prison Of The Mind with this new Sandman single: a rollerskating jam for literal and figurative eggheads. On one hand, I'm happy to see a kitchen used in a Rap video for something other than pretending to cook crack; on the other hand, I'm disgusted to see Brussels Sprouts in a Rap video. Keep Brussels Sprouts outta Rap videos! Feet too!

Speakin' of feet, this fat-era Sandman single has become a personal favourite. No rollerskates or wheels required here, this is poundin' pavements music. It's often said that New York rappers don't know how to make car music, but Sandman turns that shortcoming into a strength on this one.

Homeboy Sandman - Stroll
(From Hallways album; 2014)



Pardon the pun, but dome blown within the comforts of my own home @ that "do the homeless feel without a home or just feel at home everywhere?" line.

That Morricone sample works so well on Stroll.

Didn't realise it was Morricone. That makes me like the song even more.

I've grown to like Homeboy Sandman. Last year's Waiting On My Girl opened the gates for me, I'm in now.

Gotta admit I’m getting more and more into his stuff every time, won’t be long until I buy one of his cds.

Is Sittin On Chrome the best New York Car Music album?

Yeah it's gotta be.
