(From Early One Morning single; 2020)
5 years late on this song, but I'm down for the count like that serf Renfield. Nas was "half-man, half-amazin'", Big Hongry is half-Afroman, half Mac Dre. Early One Morning is more goofy than mainey and it's a pity Hongry didn't run with this style because it hits distinct. Hongry is an IRL sk8er boi which means he can wear a Thrasher hoody without the ghost of NyQuil haunting him to demand he names 3 Geoff Rowley clips.
Hongry hails from Richmond, California, but Early One Morning was produced by some Swiss bloke called Quest Beatz and the video was shot in Switzerland. Damn, son - they got Lil' Debbie lookalike video hoes in Switzerland!
Thoughts about the Pitchfork best rap albums list?

ReplyDeletedid kind of a deeper dive into afroman a couple years ago and was surprised to learn i think he self produces all his music?
I'm gonna pretend the Lil' Debbie lookalike's name is Alice.
ReplyDeletethat beat is nuts.
ReplyDelete'you can send me to heaven or hell but i ain't going back to a 2 man cell' is a cold line.
I should give Splash Bakery a hat tip here because I looked this up after watching Hongry perform it with The Yee Section.
ReplyDeleteAwesome one, best way to start in the morning is to stumble upon such a song.
ReplyDeleteGetting some Ezale vibes in a couple of line deliveries as well, must be a Bay thing.
Also, possible K-Dee reference? https://youtu.be/xifYLnLkt08?si=KBnIaUGQ6Fv1Z6k_
Definite K-Dee reference.
