Slim Thug - Boss Of All Bosses...
 

...is probably the most slept on album of the year. It's the hip hop album that's gotten the most play from me yet this year. So please check this video for "I Run" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnRc46xWSfI ...it's definitely the most pop song on the album, and the immediate obvious single. But I'm telling you, this record is sick.

Met him at a football game once, dude was a fucking dick. I said hi to him said I was a fan, didnt' even ask for a fucking autograph, and he tells me to fuck off and leave him the fuck alone.

Really? Weird.

I think that sucks, that he was like that. But it's kind of hard for me to even care -- meaning that there's probably a LOT of musicans I like that are total dicks in real life. But it's their records I'm interested in. Y'know?

If it's any consolation, a lot of what makes this album so good is the lyrics; a lot of the record is about how when he signed to a major he sort of sold out and played the part he thought he was supposed to (big fucking rap star) and now realizes that he wasn't being himself and that it was shitty. Also the beats are amazing, with the exception of a really lazy Mannie Fresh track weirdly enough.
