That's nice alright. I need to check out this Sandman cat some more, I'm definitely tuned out to most of the newer shit on ST since I can't keep up with it.

Love the edan production too. WTF has he been up to, christ it's been over 10 years since Beauty and the Beat (peep it if you haven't, slept-on classic). Hope it hasn't been due to any ill shit like fam, health, writers block or whatever but dude can bring it.

"shoot my television, walk outdoors

and explore

with the innocence of kids aged 4"

Anyway some early Edan for the heads and one of my all-tiem faves:

Beauty & The Beat is still in my rotation. Still my favorite Hip-hop album from the past 10 years.

He's produced a few tracks here & there ( I think some new Mr. lif, Blu, etc.)...There has been some scuttlebutt that he's been working on a new album, but he hasn't confirmed anything. Spends alot of his time spinning records in NY & doing shows on radio here & there. Eagerly awaiting some new shiz.

Thanks for the link, good article! Seems like he's doing alright for himself.

I've also been listening to a lot of Open Mike Eagle recently. I really like his lyrics and delivery, but I feel like the production/beats on the albums sometimes leaves something to be desired. But his latest album is really a step up in that department - really really solid, not a single skippable track on there.
