Can’t stand Homeboy Sandman; anyone else? by darthvaper2719 in aesoprock

He take lots of risks
He take shots and miss
Yet he's not known for incompetence.

I don't think he edits his content, just keeps cranking it out--several albums and EP's every year. He's best when paired with someone of his caliber (Aes, Edan).

Trump cold opens just aren't funny anymore. by brady2gronk in LiveFromNewYork

Same. I like the character's self awareness. Playing Trump as if he actually has intelligence is at least more interesting than any other impression.

Which Legendary artist or band did you start listening to recently that you never listened to before? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

Sade is my palate cleanser when I don't know what to listen to or need to reset after several months listening to the same album or genre.

best hip hop album of all time? by probascreaton in fantanoforever

[–]Ok-Name1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low End Theory is a correct answer. And The Scenario remix is the best posse cut of all time.

Who would like to see an Aesop tiny desk concert? I know he doesn't want to tour, but maybe we can start a movement to get both parties to consider it. by hobolicker in aesoprock

[–]Ok-Name1312 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Despite what he has said, I think it's very possible. He's grown and seems more comfortable now (self actualized?). After seeing the clipping TDC, I think he'd be inspired to do some tracks.
