Video: Danny Brown - "Smokin' & Drinkin'"

I have made it pretty clear time and time again that Danny Brown’s “Smokin’ & Drinkin’” off of 2013’s Old LP is my gold standard for hip hop, it’s all about that crazy flow that switches from whimsical to menacing from verse to verse over an A-Trak beat that sounds like it was birthed from a murky, gator filled, swamp.

Today I got to fall in love with the tune all over again since a video made its way onto the internet that showcases, you guessed it, smoking and drinking.

Listen: Danny Brown – “Old” (Full LP Stream)

Danny Brown's Old is set to drop next week on October 8th via Fool’s Gold but you can now stream it in its entirety via Spotify below. The follow up to the instant classic that was XXX features guest spots from emcee’s such as SchoolboyQ, Charli XCX, Purity Ring, Freddie Gibbs, A$AP Rocky and Ab-soul. Production duties are handled by Paul White, A-Trak, Rustie, Skywlkr and more.

Old is most certainly not XXX part two, the Detroit native shows a lot of growth as a writer and overall I would say that  the record is a little less “weird” than its predecessor but no less unique possibly making it a little easier to digest for more casual listeners. Production is to say the least colorful jumping all over the place stylistically often revealing a new favorite as the album progress’s from start to finish.

Video: Danny Brown – “Dip”

With Old set to drop on October 8th Danny Brown has been sharing new tunes and videos at a feverish pace. The latest is in the form of “Dip” which see’s Danny spitting his lunacy to a Skywlkr beat, visuals are courtesy of Rollo Jackson.

Listen: Danny Brown – “Side A (Old)"

Danny Brown’s  OLD is out soon via Fools Gold, and today we get yet another taste of the album in the form of “Side A (Old).” PaulWhite handles production duties while Danny raps about his past as he heads into the future.

Video: Danny Brown – “ODB”

Still playing catch-up here after being out of town for a week.  

One of my favorite rappers these last several years has been Danny Brown, if that’s a surprise to you it really shouldn't be because we post a lot of his stuff here at Onomatopoeia. Brown’s Old is set to drop on September 30^th via Fools Gold but tracks have been steadily dropping over the passing weeks and months to keep fans interested. “ODB” is the first official single and video and is produced by Paul White who keep things super trippy and off the beaten path, a perfect match for Danny’s flow.  The equally trippy video comes curtsy of Ruffmercy which makes this one a perfect hat trick! 

Listen: Danny Brown - "Kush Coma"

Danny Brown stayed true to his word and dropped a new tune entitled  “Kush Coma.” Danny stated that he would put out the track if fans got #KushComa to trend.  Apparently fans took that to heart as is became a trending topic within 20 minutes.  The Skywalkr produced tune is an alternate version of what we will hear on his forthcoming LP, Old, scheduled to drop in August, as A$AP Rocky still has to record some versus for it. As is the tune sounds very complete and is heavy on the bass with some aggressive percussion and synths paving the way for Danny’s always unique delivery.
