Anyone heard EDAN-Beauty and The Beat ?

A 34 minute masterpiece.

Not Kidding.

If you loved Madvilliany in 04' this is so for you.

thanks for the recommendation. allmusic says it was released in 2004 though.

As an import, but it was realeased here within the last several weeks. Judging from the price on Amazon for the import I doubt its been heard much here. Although it is starting to get lots of exposure now. It's on Metacritic and Cokemachineglow now.

Yeah it's real good. There's been better hip hop releases, but this is top 5.

Plus it has Percee P on it. And he steals the show, as usual.

Oh that silly Edan. I haven't given this a listen yet...his rep in the area is a good one though, so I'm looking forward to it.

I've been bumping this for a couple of months now... really hot. With the exception of One Be Lo's S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M., this is the best hip-hop release this year. He also has a mixtape called Sounds of the Funky Drummer that's equally ace.
