I saw this guy last night in Chicago, and it was the best show I've seen in years. He has such an electric stage presence. I'm sure it helps that he's a trained dancer.

He's one of the few rappers I know of exploring the overlap of new electronic music and rap.

His first mixtape DARK YORK is a good place to start for the uninitiated. He has 2 other free "tapes" which are essentially full-length albums, one of which was just released last month.

I hope you have sub-woofers.

Enjoyable! I really like the production on his vocals.

last year, I kinda dig dark york for a while, but I grew tired. interesting stuff, but still immature imo, but still I liked it for a while, will probably revisit.

His second tape Fly Zone, and his Liquid EP with Boody have a lot higher production value.

Pretty sure this guy is taking off into mainstream stardom. He's got that rare combo of charisma and work ethic.

yeah he is!! very happy more wesleyan peeps are making it big on the scene beyond MGMT and amanda "i'm a complete shit head" palmer

really nice guy - went to my school and graduated a few years ago, actually had a javanese gamelan class with him. was nice but came across as too image-obsessed for my tastes - but I guess you need that to be a rapper lol. to the liberal arts crowd, he frames his work as "gay-rap" which of course everyone at wesleyan creams their pants over. not totally sure why... i mean it's novel?

the ripped black dude in the "wut" video is a big friend of mine actually.

couldnt have said better. indeed he will be big. will listen to his newest stuff then

yeah i like his stuff, nice guy as well, use to talk to him a bit in 06/07 as we both liked each others music, he liked my design work and would tell me how pretty he thought i was

this guy can be good as well, wicked track

yeah I saw Mykki Blanco live not too long ago with a guy called t.e.a.m.s, it was pretty damn great. I was seriously wasted though, so my chin stroking abilities were disabled.
