i was just listening to an L.A. rap podcast that brought up Project Blowed and how they specifically banned this flow in the '90s.

"I rule you, before you used to rap like Fu-Schnickens"

dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 16 May 2014 17:03 (twelve years ago)

I can't believe this style did not get some kind of official nomenclature, it's so distinct

Οὖτις, Friday, 16 May 2014 18:47 (twelve years ago)

used to be called the "iggity" flow

dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 16 May 2014 18:58 (twelve years ago)

Spottie, Friday, 16 May 2014 18:59 (twelve years ago)

Οὖτις, Friday, 16 May 2014 19:00 (twelve years ago)

I kinda hate this style tbh - I mean a few lines of it popping up here and there are fine but man does it get tired fast

Οὖτις, Friday, 16 May 2014 19:00 (twelve years ago)

yeah not my favorite thing and the reason i dont hold any dasfx albums in my personal canon

Spottie, Friday, 16 May 2014 19:01 (twelve years ago)

Cube's "I'm still flipping the tongue/like the diggity dung Das EFX" on the Predator still makes me lol. He was never one for tongue-twisting rhymes really

Οὖτις, Friday, 16 May 2014 19:06 (twelve years ago)

i love the first das efx record.

*lovingly places das efx in personal canon, touches their cheek, closes door*
