U not fam with Aesop Eesh?

A bro I know at tech is mad bout him and Def Jux too.I think Aesop is his fav emcee.He´s gonna drop me a copy of his pervious album.Supposedly some of his best work.

Aesop is a bro who lacks some melanin, but flows very nicely.I just recently got to vibe to it and I must say, pretty tight.

They are swedish I think.
They hav some tight tracks for a bunch of white boys lol.
I wud reccomend Long arm of the law.....or  Fly away, the struggle continues..... Niice stuff.
They hooked up with an SA emcee on Imbumba Unity....

yeah, i herd. i also saw the revenge of the robots dvd n they had a whole 5 minute aes is havin a bad time section, hes suicidal n hes forever depressed, who smokes like a chimney etc(thot that was a bit lame[cant rally for fans like that unless if u kurt cobain]).

what was it about tho???


@ Naturelle

I kno looptroop, definately my least favorite white rappers to date, i think promoe(the only cat worth listenin to in the group) sounds like a concious eminem 4 sum reason but f*** it, fly away was on point, i was dissapointed that they used the same formula(beatwise) on bandit queen.And im generally not into any conicous shit anyway except for a select few tracks i.e. SUPER PRETZEL---BIGG JUS

but thats ur opinion n if u firmly believe in it then its ur baby, i feel madlib n norah jones wud be pure hotness, broken sampled country soulhop

aesop is an amazing lyricist. some people find him too abstract, but you just gotta listen closer and more carefully to what he´s saying and you´ll see this guy has amazing skill. "no regrets" off his album labor days is one of my favourites. yeah the dude is dope. i love him.
