Aesop

Razorblade Runner has a great Aesop Rock track worth checking out called Facemelter. I wasn't always an Aesop Rock fan, it took a few listens to get me into him. What got me to keep on listening was the great production. My favorite release by Aesop Rock is Labor days with production by El-P and Blockhead, I'm pretty sure I've posted a track from that on here before. He has a lyrical style that you just can escape....

"New York MC Aesop Rock released his most potent combination of words and music on his Def Jux debut. Crammed with references to history and mythology, as well as the usual pop-culture name checks, Aesop's lyrics remain unusually verbose and intelligent here, but he's also able to spin them into compelling stories". --AMG



Aesop Rock - Daylight

Aesop Rock - Battery
Aesop Rock - Water (YSI link) This is definitely worth your effort to download.
