2778103, Just curious: Judge the flow/style of these bandcamp rappers
Posted by stylez dainty, Wed Feb-13-13 04:41 PM
Not associated with any of these artist, or any artists. I've just been scouring bandcamp to an unhealthy degree. These are all people I thought sounded fairly unique and wanted to see how they're received. Most of them impressed me enough that I check for them now, although for some of them the production gives them the extra push, IMO.

Warning: These are all pretty lofi, undergound, borderline nerd rap type guys.

Wonge (he flows exactly like this on every song)

Davy Hamburgers

http://polkaglocks.bandcamp.com/track/kiss-this

Gajah (I purposely chose a track that represented the most extreme side of his flow)

http://gajah.bandcamp.com/track/one-planted-seed-prod-by-al-pd

Rapper producer guy. Sloppy in a 3rd tier Wu-Tang type of way. If they just rapped about getting dumped more.

http://clevelandtapes.com/track/undo

Another rapper producer guy, mellow style I've been digging lately.

Oh, and this sing songy guy

>Wonge (he flows exactly like this on every song)

Pretty generic underground-y. eq on his voice is mad annoying.

>Davy Hamburgers

Sounds like he's having fun, but didn't really display any skill.

>Gajah (I purposely chose a track that represented the most
>extreme side of his flow)

ATU'ish with the singing and all that. I could see him coming with something.

>Rapper producer guy. Sloppy in a 3rd tier Wu-Tang type of way.
>If they just rapped about getting dumped more.

Hear the wu ref... not bad if they tightened it up.

>Another rapper producer guy, mellow style I've been digging
>lately.

Sounds like he's whispering in a girl's ear.

>Oh, and this sing songy guy

Like him better when he's not singing Umi Says.

I think Gajah is my favorite of the bunch, but the biggest set back wasn't the flows it was the content. Nothing stood out like oh I might hear something different on this.
