i used to love Labor Days so much, but guess my favorite release is Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives!
saw him at Sonoteque Chicago really amazing MC...
vocals on Evil Nine's Crooked was perfect!

p.s. : I love Definitive Jux!

No Regrets is the only hip-hop tune to ever make me cry.
Never buy anything by the Japanese artist TDK. Their CD's contain nothing but silence!

One of the most gifted MC's to bless the mic. The man has the most amazing ways to tell a story.
Saw him last time he came to Vancouver and dude tore it up.

He is a nice lyricist, but sometimes his voice and flow just grate me, and i swear alot of his "deep imagery" just doesn't make sense... Talking about purple apples and bleeding swatch watches and shit. Just seems to try too hard, although i do love quite a few of his tunes.

I think he's wicked but Ive never got a clue what he's going on about. Apart from 'No Regrets' which isnt too tough. Daylight is such a good tune. Blockhead's beats are heavy.
