Ghostface-esque Fillah

I wanted to post some Ghostface Fillah today but I don't have any. So this track from Kanye's new album will have to do. It's the song Ghostface wanted to make for Wizard of Poetry, but didn't. I can envision GFK sitting at home in a terrycloth tracksuit and chicken-and-broccoli Wallabees surrounded by women in underwear and piles of weed, listening to this song for the first time, aching that he didn't have this beat a year ago.

  2. can't hear this yet, but (and i hate to say this) kanye west's new album is much better than "wizard of poetry"-- although guesthouse is a great song.

  3. Kanye is at the height of his powers as a producer on his new album. But he doesn't have the lyrics and/or flow of a truly gifted rapper. He would, of course, disagree.

  5. While I agree with Z's assessment of Kanye's lyrical ability (or lack thereof), he's much better than most producers who've ventured into the role of lyricist/rapper. Erick Sermon's got him beat though.

    Rick Ross drops the name of the (quasi) hometown of Greg and I in this song. Notable to me...and that's probably it.

    After checking out #11, check out their web site. Web site is NSFW.

    Finally the fragrance for 30 year old guy still living in their parents basement.
