A couple more days I'll be in Boston for Bronson and Danny Brown 2High2Die.

What a way to get me hyped for the show.

Old = Classic status.

[checkyourprez]

all the way through. and it is a pretty damn solid album. not going to annoint it classic ish yet, i feel that comes over time with replayability. but for now its a really good piece of work.

jealous they cancelled that Toga show. enjoy yourself man!

I guess Danny has issues getting into Canada so that's prob out for you too.

I'm giving it classic status because I listened to it last night (faded), listened to it on the ride to work (5 am tired), and all I could think about at work all day was how much of an impact it made on me. And how I needed to listen to it asap.

The ride home from work I got my fix of Old and everything was alright.

There's maybe 2 songs out of the 19 I might skip. But, those are sometimes the joints I grow to like even more during time.

9.7/10

I've got to give a huge shout to my man Paul White, representing South London and the UK, in producing a number of decent joints on this album (Paul's a genuinely good bloke).

In case you've missed it, my favourite recent Danny Brown/Paul White collabo is probably Street Lights off Paul's recent Watch The Ants EP:-

I love the way the atmosphere and tension build in this beat. The vocal is quite straight forward for Danny Brown, but I like the momentum of the hook and things.

You can see more details about Paul White through One Handed Music, who have consistently been putting out some decent material over the last few years:-
