Fear Of A Black Tangent
Big Dada
HIP HOP
Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the return of BUSDRIVER. This time the LA native, memorably described as sounding like some street crazy, casts himself in a role he knows well an uncelebrated underdog of the indie rap circuit. Rather than bolstering his usual freewheeling poetic rant, his new record, Fear Of A Black Tangent (named as a kind of spoof/tribute to PUBLIC ENEMY), focuses more on the insandouts of the underground rapper\'s lifestyle. Filled with anecdotes dealing with touring, an unfailingly fickle fanbase, groupies, wack popular acts, racialbias and just plain oldfashioned selfdoubt, the record successfully pokes fun at the scene that birthed it. As the full length followup to the legendary 2002 release Temporary Forever, Busdriver has delivered the most cohesive work of his career, thirteen impressive tracks that range from lightning fast PROJECT BLOWEDstyle raps to singsong pop. The album features production by DAEDELUS, DANGER MOUSE, THAVIUS BECK, OMID, and PARIS ZAX and has guest appearances by fellow Project Blowed emcees ABSTRACT RUDE, ELLAY KHULE, MIKAH9 (of FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP), and 2MEX. Overseas press quotes for Cosmic Cleavage: THE INDEPENDENT \"Like some street crazy letting out his demons through a warped soliloquy... berserk.\" TIME OUT \"Utterly bonkers\"
LOGO \"Bangon, biting humour... an album of unabated originality\".
