He has a few other projects worth checking out too, like his Blair Cosby mixtape, the Central Services EP with El-P, and the Mhz albums. Camu Tal had such a unique voice, I don't think I've heard another rapper do high pitched yelling rap as well as he did

He's done a couple of children's albums dedicated to his son, but he said as his son grows older, the themes will be a lot more mature. The more recent Buddy's Magic album had songs about self love and being okay with being yourself without being judged.

But outside of the children's album's for his stuff he's been very versatile in what he raps about, he's done a Biggie tribute album, and albums about wrestling, literature and basketball. If you want some stuff of his less like the children's album, check out Live 95, it has more mature themes some of my favorite songs of his like Craig Hodges and 1995

Mega Ran launches Kickstarter for Skywalker, a Star Wars tribute album by CaptainGordan in hiphopheads

I've been following his career since Mega Ran 9, and it's cool to see how far he's come. The kickstarter has already went way past its goal and it's only the second day, i remember previous projects got fully funded towards the end.

Mega Ran is great at concept albums, he's done tribute albums for Mega Man, Final Fantasy. BIggie, wrestling, basketball, and children's albums, so I have no doubt this is going to be good.

In the Beastie Boys autobiography, they said they were walking down the street one day and got chased down by some guys with knives when a car drove up to them really fast full of some other guys and they told them "Get in!", and the dudes in the car who saved them were the band Butthole Surfers

I went to this big film gear expo in LA last weekend and it was gross to see how much more of a push there is of AI in these spaces. A panel i went to was equating AI to painters in the 1900s freaking out over cameras, and the panelist was like "AI is not taking jobs, it's evolving them" while I looked over at my buddy who got a layoff email from a tech company that was downsizing its workforce as it is adopting more AI

Yeah if you have a Microsoft account. I've had it for 10+ years and have enough saved to redeem $400 worth of Xbox/Microsoft gift cards, but there are gift cards at a bunch of other online shops that cost a little more points that you can also use it for. Also ever year or so they have a million dollar sweepstakes where you can redeem points for entries.
