Shabazz Palaces Free Press and Curl

[DaanOFF321]

Such a unique record, one of my favs of 2011 along with The Roots and Elzhi (and The Black Keys)

[SpeckMo]

Greatness.



[jackarypo]

THIS IS SUM NEXT GR1MEY 2NE!!!!1111!!1!!11!!!!1111!!!!­!

[Otakugima]

Seriously tho, this is some pretty revolutionary stuff.

[HumbleFishStix]

The MC has a pretty good flow and an okay voice but the real story on this album is the production.

[saraismynamo93]

I honestly love this but I can't decide what I think about that experimental-feel to it, these strange dissonant noises are just..I don't know, do I like them?

[DrSeebie]

@saraismynamo93 You are free to like it.

[saraismynamo93]

@DrSeebie I admire them.

[teocalmeida]

@saraismynamo93 i love them!

[pyenapple]

@saraismynamo93 Open your sponge and let is soak in. Yes, you can like it. :)

[TruTruTreVvids]

easily my favorite song. the lyrics are amazing when you actually think about them....

[manzanares2408]

Never heard anybody like these guys but they are food and something to look into

[6six6xis6]

@manzanares2408 they are food arent they.

[zvvo]

I'm Free

[callyballer95]

Holy shit..

[22Goldiefoxx]

HOLY.....wow

[cheersdrinktothat]

OMG, Love this song. I actually found them from a free sampler on Amazon and now i totally love them.

[GoOnMaggotBrain]

Thumbs up if music is subjective therefore making it too difficult to compare two different groups with completely different content

[Circa9993]

3:06

[JeremyLovesTyler]

wow

[Division1985]

Am I hearing Butterfly from Digable Planets?

[Sukany]

@Division1985

you hearded it right my friend, but now he transforms to Palaceer Lazaro

[royalnaz1]

cause of is one of the best rap acts out fool. they raise the bar so for you to be better you have to get up there level

[poedis]

Up or don't toss it at all!!!

[mdross9500]

favorite song off the album. so fucking dope

[lancebramsay]

AOTY

[fiendforbeats]

no, you cant compare this to OF because shabazz palaces can make descent albums, and OF at the moment are not quite as serious and really only have bunch of good singles.

[DocFaust]

Shit is HEAT! NSF85!



[internettrollmachine]

why are people talking about OF on a song that isn't even by them

[madeyes4u]

@internettrollmachine Because they're the hottest thing in underground rap right now, but there are so many other rappers and rap groups who deserve equal amounts (or more!) of the attention that OF is getting. OF does have a few great singles, but they don't have 1 great album as of today.

[TristantehSurreal]

OF is great, but i have to admit, this exceeds them sonically for sure. for me, anyway.

[osufan77]

OF and Shabazz are both good. End of Story. Period. FIN.

[derekg49]

Can't I listen to both OF and Shabazz Palaces?

[MrKittenzzz]

And shabazz IS miles above them. Not even an opinion. OF has a a couple decent tracks, but the majority are mostly mediocre. I'm pretty sure people like reading about them and praising them more than actually listening to their music. I mean who actually has their album on repeat?

[MrKittenzzz]

Jesus, I like a few of OF tracks. Just making a harmless comment.

[RawBiznasProductions]

Shabazz Palaces is the Animal Collective of hip hop

[BethlehemFilmakers]

@RawBiznasProductions Thinking that same exact thing

[MrKittenzzz]

Thumbs up if OF ain't anywhere close to this level.

[smokyp3nguin]

@MrKittenzzz Lol I saw Shabazz at the pitchfork music festival and they were 20 minutes late because they wanted to see the OF show.

It's not that one is better than the other, they just move in different circles.

[TristantehSurreal]

@smokyp3nguin for real? that's hilarious! i was there, and i missed OF even though i was there for em, i only heard a little shabazz. but that's funnyyy.

[nem700]

@smokyp3nguin

hahaaha checking the competition. they probably came back thinking they were whack, elated that they are the best group in the world.

[smokyp3nguin]

@nem700 Yeah, that's why they sat through the whole thing...

[LCDaftpunk]

@MrKittenzzz i hate these comments everyone knows odd future is trash why even talk about them now

[bessamsam]

@MrKittenzzz NO ONE is anywhere close to this level.

[HolywafflzFtw]

@MrKittenzzz you can't compare them at all... that would be like comparing pizza and sushi... two different culture and two different things... you don't always have to compare every rapper and group... OF is OF and Shabazz is Shabazz

[blancmage31]

@HolywafflzFtw AMEN.

[AlanAnthonyDoyle]

*****

[ifonlywemovedaway]

Fuck Tyler, THAT'S the Shit.

[WOMDBOOM]

@ifonlywemovedaway

No Odd Future is the shit too

[RoyceOrbison]

My favorite jam from Black Up. Commence eargasm at 1:53

[yolo1998]

Is that what's up? That's what's up.

[seattleshowgal]

Thanks for posting this. The record is called 'Black Up.'
