Hodgy Beats Recommendation

Note: I'm taking a break from my two biggest ongoing projects, A Short Guide to MF Grimm and A Short Guide to Wu-Tang Clan right now before launching into my next plan, where I go over some terrific hip hop concept albums (full-on concept albums at that, not just the ones following a concept so loose you wouldn't even notice it).

This is a short post with a very specific recommendation. Now I'm not too huge on Odd Future on account of Tyler the Creator (whose rape lyrics aren't shocking and offensive so much as just tiresome and completely useless), but I did receive a recommendation recently to check out Hodgy Beats' Untitled EP (2012). I gave it a listen and actually found it really cool. This boy can rap, and the production picked is fantastic. Topically he deals with drug addiction, shitty life choices, etc. I should also point out that life would probably be better for these cats if not every woman was a hoe and a bitch, but CLEARLY it's ALL the fault of the woman, and not at all the men who beat/rape/murder them. HMPH. In any case this is well worth your time, and you'll be happy to know that it's free on the Odd Future website! As always the link is included. :)

If you want a particular track recommendation, you gotta check "In a Dream," that shit really speaks to me.
