MP3:Elzhi - Deep (Prod. Black Milk)

right now, nobody can fffff with him NOBODY

stare a felon in his grill

Elzhi is an animal.

really cant wait.

Elzhi

After all the hype i inflicted on you about this - i still haven't checked it. Gasp. 'Europass' is the reason for this - and while that work has got listens left in it, I won't be moving on along to this. His wordplay demands multiple listens full stop.

As soon as I've ive given 'the preface' the attention it deserves, you will be hearing from me on the subject, but at this rate, I wouldnt sit at the pc hitting refresh. It could be weeks, months. .

But in the meantime why don't you provide me with the hype for a change. . Who's checked it? And who's still checking it? > than europass?

MichiganHipHop have a very nice interview with him where he talks about the slum, working with royce, working on the preface. . and in general his plans for the future. Definitely head over via the link, have a read, and give them some props because its the second time they've more than delivered (in my memory) with their interviews (...see Dwele).

Normal service resumed this week.

Best lyrical experience possible?

At the moment. . . Yeah.

Okayplayer got audio of Elzhi's new single. ft. Ayah, who i swear used to vocal drum and bass tunes? Correct me if im wrong. .

The videos of him performing two tunes, 'Motown 25' and 'thats the one'. Both of Europass, free CD he was throwing out on tour. Free cd. puts to shame 99% of the hiphop ive heard this year..

So go peep the single on OKayplayer, hunt out Europass. . and hang tight till the Preface drops. August 12th.

The Preface

It’s been a long time coming, but Elzhi is finally set to release his proper solo debut The Preface on August 12. Produced almost entirely by Black Milk, The Preface shows one of the finest lyricists of his era entering raising the bar for emcees in 2008. Elzhi has been relentlessly recording of late, and while this release took longer than many of his fans had wished to see the light of day, look for the follow up The Feed to hit shelves in 2009.

In the meantime, look for the following tracklisting to give you more than enough food for thought until then:

1. Intro (The Preface)
2. The Leak (Feat. Ayah)
3. Guessing Game
4. Motown 25 (feat. Royce Da 5'9)
5. Brag Swag.
6. Colors
7. Fire (Remix) (feat. Black Milk, Guilty Simpson, Fatt Father, Danny Brown, & Fat Ray)
8. D.E.M.O.N.S.
9. Save Ya (feat. T3 of Slum Village)*
10. Yeah (feat. Phat Kat)
11. Transitional Joint
12. Talking in My Sleep
13. The Science (feat. Fes Roc)**
14. Hands Up
15. What I Write
16. Growing Up (feat. A.B.)

Love It Here

Drive-bys, windows bust out bullets putting in lawn chairs
from a block over, sounding like Lil' Jon snares
Life's gotten colder, I'm revealing a smirk
How's hustling not a job when you feel you at work
Mama told me keep my brain in them books
I grew up learning only way you earning is becoming famous or crooks
And since schools never taught us to be entrepreneurs
but we don't have patience to make money off of computers
We live the fast life where officers shoot us
Get scarred; strip bars, where broads take bras off of they hooters
Such a ugly game, why it look beautiful from afar...
You in prison wishing they was removing you from the bars

MP3: Elzhi - Love It Here (Prod. J Dilla)

so, so, so good.
watch out for the new stuff.
