[Mini-Playlist] Daily Breakdown 10/5/11

It’s Wednesday, which basically sucks. Here’s some shit to get you over the humpday.

1.      Louis Logic  Mischievous
A cut off of the Drunken Dragon’s best-known album, Sin-A-Matic. If you like the Slim Shady LP, I can nearly guarantee that you’ll appreciate this song. Listening to this twice in a row, the comparison’s are pretty clear, from the lowered maturity level to the multi-syllabic flow. A good song for aspiring shit starters.


2.              Spaceghostpurrp – CVPTVIN PLVNXT (Captain Planet)
Alright, now you’re grooving. This song could act as your interlude between pregaming and partying. Featuring swagged out lyrics over an extraterrestrial beat this song will have you bobbing your head and slowly build your excitement.


3.              Pusha T – Raid ft. Fiddy & Pharrell
I assume the beat is courtesy of the Neptunes but even if I’m wrong, this shit goes. Pusha is the more public half of Clipse and provides some good bars. 50 Cent does whatever the hell he’s been doing for the last decade and Pharrell provides a pretty nice hook.


4.              Ma$e – Feel So Good
Take it to the dance floor with Preacher Mason Bethea. P Diddy does a great job stealing a song from the 80s (and bragging about it in the bridge, which is bold) and turning it into a pimpin’ song. If you are able to understand Ma$e’s muffled, lispy lines about living the good life, you’ll have a pretty good night. If you’re not, find a biddy and just enjoy the sounds.


5.              Mickey Factz – Paradise
I usually don’t like overtly hipster rap but this is a pretty nice song. This is one of those songs that has to be listened to with good subs to be properly enjoyed and as such it’s perfect for the (hopefully sober) drive back to wherever you’re crashing.


6.              James Blake – Measurements
This was almost Cool James’ “Around the Way Girl” but since I’m not an unreasonable person, you get James Blake instead. “Measurements” fades into oblivion just like most champs would at the end of a good night, so put this on repeat and turn off the lights.
(Or not. I couldn't find this on YouTube. Sorry.)


Total Time: 22:56
Mood: Is it Friday yet?
