Dusty soul slick shit from Austin/League of Extraordinary G’z shop wreckers Dred Skott. I really like Devin in the role of the old wrestler who let’s new guys beat him for the good of the game. The drums might be a little too early-9th Wonder for me, but that’s nitpicking. Dope stuff.
Props, once again to The Mayor for the heads up.
DOWNLOAD: Dred Skott ft. Devin The Dude “Let’s Go”
This is the first single from Devin’s Suite 420 album (to be released on April 20), produced by Reggie Coby of Dred Skott, first played by Matt Sonzala aka Pushermania on his AustinSurreal show on KAOS Radio Austin. Big props to him and to The Mayor Chump Change of the Philaflava Forums for the heads up.
Devin The Dude – What I Be On (produced by Reggie Coby)
Dred Skott: Esby the Bully, Reggie the Genius…a group you need to familiarize self with… pop this in and begin to wrap your mind around the concept of a group spittin the whole truth minus the facts. Not to be confused with being lyrical just to be lyrical, that only goes so far and is often forgettable. To make it below the Mason Dixon it’s got to have SOUL !!! (see not afraid & you can’t bury me)
However, it helps if the lyrics are untouchable…
Pop told me great great great grand dad was known to get it poppin/
for tha rest of them field niggas when they was pickin cotton/
-Esby “Paraynoid”
This is one of the few times where the music truly speaks for itself so roll one up and bang Dred Skott for President.. also be on the lookout for the collab album titled League of Extraordinary G’z coming soon with label mates SouthBound and Austin’s sons C.O.D.
-The Mayor
Note From Blast: These dudes are legit. There is a great chemistry between the two emcees and they have a solid ear for beats. The subject matter is well-balanced and these guys can write. Take heed…
