You know, this mix – a wonderful peace made by Hubert Daviz – reminded me of a thought I kept for myself some time ago. For this selection consists of extremely neat and neatly traditional hip hop, soul and bits of jazz makes me think about Busdriver, a rapper extraordinaire in his skills, lyrics and almost non-rap music-wise. In precise, makes me think about his lyrics and how would the World turn more rapidly if the rap lyrics would have been like his ever since the genre started. And i don’t doubt that, say, Kylie would overtake Madonna by a hundred queen’s points, leaving all those abilities to fold herself by half without getting tired behind, if the highly compassionate manager would order her to throw it like this:

“It’s like a bed-and-breakfast I’m sending a text message on my key pad / Saying, "I hav no more to say to my ex-manager(slash)sea hag divorcee / Except eat shit and die”

or?

“Call your mother mommy or your mother mum if you cannot tell the difference between a plate of food and a cluster bomb / This is a healthy excercise in recreational paranoia”

And hey, line per second! Try to think about it while listening to the mix, because i can smell the revolution’s coming. If it used to be “mayday mayday”, now it’s “monday monday + wheheheh” Tags: hip hop, soul, jazz, and Hubert Daviz
