Song Review-Scapulimancy (or Bonecaster) by Iceberg Theory & August Fanon
by Dan-O If you watch comedy documentaries(and listen to comedy podcasts) like I do you know this special species of performer. Some nights they connect with the audience other times they don’t but it doesn’t matter. It’s Gilbert Gottfried doing a Seinfeld impression in the 70’s when no one in the audience knows why that…

Nation Gvng-Every Song’s A Celebration
by Dan-O The newest release on Insubordinate Records is great! The full length album by Nation Gvng (PR The Great, Black, BIGSPITGAME, Scorcese) is a furious workout of focused voices passing the baton at full speed to a partner who surges forward.

5 questions for Fatboi Sharif & Roper Williams

5 Questions for Chris Crack
by Dan-O I’m me for the sole purpose that nobody else can do that. I don’t think the Chris Crack of 2017 could fathom the run he is on right now. No blueprint existed for making albums this way. His release schedule this year: White People Love Algorithms in April, Cute Boys (The Rise of…

Song Review-Influencer by Sleep Sinatra ft. Teller Bank$ prod by August Fanon
https://sleepsinatra1.bandcamp.com/track/influencer-feat-teller-bank-prod-by-august-fanon The proposition: The group of people who made this song should form a collective that makes albums together. The reasoning: The craft is so strong with these two. Sleep Sinatra-Sleeper Effect is the kind of impressive that grows with each listen. The wordplay and flow come so easy that he seems like one of…

#Bandcampgold-Eastern Medicine, Western Illness by Preservation
by Dan-O The intangible brilliance in a producer is being able to arrive at and capture the very best of an artist. It’s a combination of casting the right voices on your songs and making sure you give the audience the very height of what they bring to the table. That is the true victory…

The 2019 album I Missed Out On
The 2019 Album I Missed Out On by Dan-O By the time I named Griselda the 2019 MVP I was dead focused on the four members on the T-Shirt: Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, Daringer and Conway The Machine. What I missed: Griselda exists within an ecosystem of ILL New York rappers who grow and…
