#94 SLOW-MOWED SINGLES: Hip Hop Drunkies


ODB fresh out of jail on a motherfuckin' Alkaholiks single... you know I bought that shit. I've always loved the Alkaholiks, and to show you how out of love for Jay-Z I am, I used to always do the mixtape connection with "It's Your Thang" by EPMD, with that bass line, into "Only When I'm Drunk" by the Liks, with the same bass line, and I was getting high with some frat kid one night and he was like, "That's that same beat from that 'no one can do it better' Jay-Z song with the chick singing.'" Fuck that shit. This is an good beat, and the song is okay enough to get playtime, probably the best song off of that Alkaholiks tape, and I always sit around wondering who did the beat. I automatically assume it was E-Swift, but I have some other single which was the first beat that Madlib sold (as part of the Lootpack), so being aware of nerdiness by the internet (YO! I AIN'T SELLING MY MOTHERFUCKIN' MF DOOM SINGLE! EBAY IS AN ILLUMINATI TRICK TO TAKE YOUR GOOD SHIT FOR FIVE DOLLARS!), I always think in the back of my head I have some stupid shit that some stupid fuck would pay stupid bucks for. But then I'd have to go to the post office, while they're open, and package shit and mail it, and plus paypal, not to mention answering faggot record nerd questions like the quality and shit... it's just not worth it.
