Living in Philly can be exasperating if you’re not one of these dudes that’s secretly hoping for the resurrection of “EAST COAST RAP, SON!” The airwaves here are dominated by old head DJs that are much more excited to play a boring ass Jay-Z verse on the hottest new Southern single than they are in big upping what’s actually popping inside of Philly or playing what’s hitting for the young folks (whether it be Club/Party music or whatever). This is only tangentially related to the song I’m posting below because the song has nothing to do with Philly and I only say the above with respect to the below song because I can’t understand why there’s all this hype over that boring ass “Jockin’ Jay-Z” song that sounds like Jay-Z going through the motions from 2002 instead of being excited by a freaking weird ass and awesome song like this. And somehow people are still screaming “WAYNE IS OVERRATED!” OK “The Carter III” wasn’t the opus you were expecting, but that album being disappointing doesn’t mean all the awesome songs he’s done are suddenyl less awesome. I mean, on this song, Wayne actually sounds like he’s sippin’ on syrup. And when I say he “sounds like he’s sippin’ on syrup,” I don’t mean it sounds like he’s leaning (because he always sounds like that), but I mean that this is what I imagine the actual ACT OF SIPPIN ON SYRUP would sound like if that act was personified and became man and started rapping. It’s effing awesome.

Big ups to Noz on the heads up. Somebody give him a job so he’s less miserable to talk to on AIM.
