2701851, El-P's C4C album release show last night

I'm sorry for those of y'all who missed it.
Despot was dope. He is one tiny dude. Pound-for-pound one of the best rappers out there though...
Mr. Muthafuckin eXXquire LITERALLY showed up late and PUSHED his way through the crowd, and then brought some fun energy to the stage.
There was even an Action Bronson sighting, but he didn't perform unfortunately.
El did the whole album front to back. I'm a picky listener, so he definitely didn't have some of the shit down perfect yet, but most people didn't notice and it honestly didn't affect the vibe of the show at all. Seeing Killer Mike up there was incredible, too. They have a great chemistry.
There was this interesting feeling I got that all these MCs treat El like their favorite Uncle. They all kept talking about how much they love him, which was cool.
Also, Killer Mike made a comment about how finally the world is on El's dick, and I couldn't agree more.
All in all, GREAT show.

I guess it's just the classic case of the artist before his time.. except in El's case, the timing was just right as "the times" may be catching up to him in his prime.

despot needs to put out an album or mixtape
my biggest take away from the night was I need to listen to more eXquire
c4c front to back was cool, but the highlights of the night for me were him coming back with EMG and then closing with Deep Space 9mm...those were so hype

2702244, Hah, the trouble is that I'm not in the US anymore.

That's as good a reason as any to go back early though.
