I Tip on Alligators and Little Rattle Snakers
Big Boi Kills it Yet Again:
“I tip on alligators and little rattle snakers
But I’m another flavor
Something like a terminator
Ain’t no equivocating
I fight for what I believe
Why you talkin’ bout it
s-s-she’s talkin’ bout it
Some callin me a sinner
Some callin me a winner
I’m callin you to dinner”
And best of all about this track? It’s part of an AMAZING record: The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monae. If you don’t got it yet, download it or buy it now!! You’ll love it. I’m absolutely confident you’ll love it.
No Cowards like “Moo Moo Moo”
With Unpredictable Bumps like Herpes
Don’t ever forget the awesome simile and metaphor third eye vision from the Hieroglyphics.
Lyrics to Last One :

“My rhymes make your brain freeze like slush
Or slurpees, with unpredictable bumps like herpes“

This is an awesome collaboration!
HSK Exclusive – Blaxploitation in the New Millennium?
I grew up on some great blaxploitation flicks from Dolemite to Soul Vengence. I loved it then, I love it know. Perhaps that’s why I’m so in love with Jacky Jasper’s Diary of a Hollywood Street King. Check it out. Tell your friends.
Here’s a little snippet to whet your whistle:
Groupies say I’m Responsible for More Little G’s Than Gucci
Busdriver: Imaginary Places
BusDriver demonstrating his unusual, incredibly technical MC skill yet again.
Awesome Lyric:
“kids if you really want to piss of your parents, buy real estate in an imaginary place”
Don’t miss Busdriver’s early collaboration with 2MEX off “Welcome to the Afterlife“, “Walking Dead”. That record is super rare and has some of the best evolutionary work from the LA rap scene available. Special props to the OMD track after it, “Mosh to Da Sun”
Call You Later – Look Daggers – 2MEX & IKEY OWENS
Props to 2Mex and Ikey Owens for their reference to Talking Heads and Jonathan Demme’s “Stop Making Sense” in this video for “Call You Later”. Plus, this video was filmed in the awe-inspiring Long Beach bookstore OPEN (from their old location in EVAD).
Cool Lyrics:
“Between the if and the when with you; come see me and don’t bring your friend with you”
“You look cute in the photo lookit; make me wanna puke in the photobucket”
