Billy Woods & Kenny Segal ft. ELUCID

https://youtu.be/Y7y45SPl10M

This one’s from 2019
In an effort to expand beyond my c.1970 horizons
Billy Woods, owner and mastermind of Backwoodz Studioz
Woods is the son of a college lit professor, and rhymes like it
Beat by Kenny Segal, veteran of Project Blowed (longtime independent LA hip hop collective)
Most of the beats Woods rides are full of dissonance, off-kilter
This one has a bit more punch, which I prefer
“Waiting for Donald Glover outside The Dakota / I’m at the telly, waiting for Reagan to show up / The beard had him nervous at the straw purchase / I said “it’s not like she’s in the burka / Rest assured, these are for regular murder”

Along the same lines
From “Terror Management” also in 2019 (he’s pretty prolific)
Might as well sell what’s left of your Ritalin…
