2646484, this Elucid guy...I need schooling
Posted by Stadiq, Fri Jan-06-12 11:19 AM
So I recently discovered that Elucid has material other than his tapes last year and The Sub Bass Diet.

I tracked down his Smash N Grab Mixtape and gave it a spin last night...dope, dope sh*t just like all his other stuff.

Guy just attacks tracks...straight chews em up.

Anyway, from what I gather he also has a mixtape "Polive and Thieves"

and

an album "The Bible and the Gun" or something.

And for the life of me, I can't find either. Aywhere.


Any Elucid heads out there that can help?

Are there other projects I'm unaware of?

2646547, smash & grab is a classic.

the "progress mixtape" from a few years back is excellent too.
2646626, thanks...have you heard the Police and Thieves tape?

2646660, the "progress mixtape"

>too.

i like it but wish i had a version that wasn't full of cd ripping errors
2646642, Yeah you can't find those anymore

Maybe that'll change soon though.

Oh and Cult Favorite will drop in 2012 but there's no date yet.

He did a grip of guest appearances last year btw.

If it were up on his bandcamp I'd pay...

Thanks for the heads up on Cult Favorite

i've never heard that album either and wonder how it compares with his more recent releases, but http://www.rappersiknow.com/media/elucid/Police_Thieves.zip
2646772, thank you very much!

was driving me crazy haha

2646667, probably my favorite rapper of all time besides jay-z
Posted by Small Pro, Fri Jan-06-12 03:47 PM
yeah, i can say that honestly.

sub bass diet prolly is my favorite thing he's done, but i agree w/ guiness..."smash & grab" is a classic, i've been meaning to play it myself recently. "police and thieves" is also excellent, and his last joint was damn good also
2646774, yeah I discovered Sub Bass Diet a few months ago...still

hasn't left rotation.

My Mayor is a Billionare alone was my anthem for several weeks.

2646848, That kid's voice is crazy.

2646937, i love that shit.
Posted by Guinness, Sat Jan-07-12 12:16 PM
that track and "nostrand" are my favorites off "smash and grab."
2646940, i think that was my introduction to his music
Posted by howisya, Sat Jan-07-12 12:21 PM
a guy rhyming over an eerie johnny cash song and quoting godspeed you! black emperor, AND his rhymes and voice are insane? instant fan
2646947, Here's a "best-of" I made two years ago...
Posted by rhymesandammo, Sat Jan-07-12 12:38 PM
...great introduction if you have been sleeping:

http://www.mediafire.com/?zih3d1zy4zz

Elucid's the bestest.

I produced two songs from him that aren't on that mix, too:

http://nightcreatures.bandcamp.com/album/bellevue-dick-digital-12

...and you should also peep Super Chocolate Black Simian, which wasn't out when I made that mix, but it's also really good and worth checking out.

i think this is everything from E (im a little lessondary obsessive)

i am missing the bible & the gun (as you can see in yellow). that thing is buried deep somewhere! not sure if these are in the right order either.

but yes, Lu is a beast. i know him and von have been working on something for a good while too. maybe 2012 will be the year for that one (dirty deacon in the land of TSOP? holler!)
2648369, yeah all of this is dope...thanks to all for the help
Posted by Stadiq, Wed Jan-11-12 10:54 AM
Wish some of these were better quality...but still dope as hell. Dude is nice.

Maybe I'm naive, but I gotta beleive dude would be "bigger" if it were easier to find his stuff.

2648372, well, it might not help when he starts using "duo" names
Posted by howisya, Wed Jan-11-12 10:58 AM
instead of "elucid & ____"

but i don't think his stuff is all that hard to find nor that low of quality... half of the people in this thread have made music with him and it's on bandcamp, meaning you could download it in lossless quality (FLAC) just like whichever releases of his are up there, which is probably the last few

That song made me a fan. To me the energy and lyrics on that records are just crazy. It's my favorite. So much I always ask him to perform it...but he doesn't. :(
2648850, Damn I love posts like these!
