3027482, Ugh, now I gotta try and remember what Griselda beat this is

This bothers me, because now I know there's Griselda shit I haven't heard that's fire. Just found the EP this is on. Then stumbled upon a mixtape of all Alchemist-produced Griselda joints, and I only knew like 2 of the tracks on there.

Thanks for this!

3027484, Yes his name is Killah Priest
Posted by micMajestic, Tue Oct-13-20 11:00 AM
I'm hard pressed to think of an artist with more weird songs I like than Killah Priest.

This way be the absolute weirdest Killah Priest song I like

3028731, bro I just got tidal and can't stop listening to his albums!

I didn't even know he been putting out consistent sci fi spiritual boom bap hiphop

America has imported more warlord theocracy from Afghanistan than it has exported democracy.
3027489, You mean like you're not sure if it's terrible or awesome?
Posted by stylez dainty, Tue Oct-13-20 12:06 PM
The link you posted falls into terrible for me (or at least obnoxious) but this project I finally decided was actually awesome:

Yeah I was trying to soften it up lol
3027492, Ok what about this..
Posted by OKdamn, Tue Oct-13-20 03:37 PM
I can't decide if this is terrible or fire

3027497, That YouTube song you leaked was horrible.

But in other cases, yeah. Like Dr. Octagon in 96

3027519, Came in here to post his name
Posted by obsidianchrysalis, Wed Oct-14-20 05:35 PM
His music is so off-kilter but after listening to it I come away so impressed. Very imaginative.

Also, Flying Lotus fits in the same category to me.

And Madlib to a lesser degree.
3027913, Strangely enough (no pun intended), Thundercat's music isn't that weird to me
Posted by ramaj1, Sat Oct-24-20 08:46 PM
Quirky and even dorky, lyrically, but sonically, it's just astral minded spacey jazz-funk grooving. Not too weird. Imaginative but not weird. *shrugs*

If I heard that beat alone I'd probably think "wtf" but the way Print rapped on it made it amazing

The kid rapping on the Griselda beat in the first post is terrible, not 'weird but fire'...

This song was thrilling to me when I first heard it. The way it took such disparate sounds, from the cartoony to the ethereal, and found a way to arrange them in a way that was not only interesting, but in its own way beautiful--it blew me away. I am always on the hunt for new music, experimental music especially, but it is so rare that I hear something that makes me think "I haven't heard that before."
3028771, outkast "elevators"
Posted by Johnny, Thu Dec-03-20 05:49 PM
the production on it was out of the ordinary for mid 90's hiphop
loved it immediately
3028838, Good example
Posted by obsidianchrysalis, Mon Dec-07-20 06:46 PM
That whole album was made up of a sound that wouldn't be popular until Kanye and Drake ran with it 10 years later.

Definitely wasn't in my wheelhouse with the first few listens.

But since then......WHOA.
