Danny Brown!

[FEELS]

How was there no thread for him? Watch his set, it will be a lot of fun. I'm sure most of you have listened to XXX, but if you haven't.... get on that! One of my favorite rap albums to come out in a while. Full of hilarious punchlines and gritty beats, while also being a very serious and intelligent record about drugs and struggling to make it as a rapper in Detroit for 10+ years. I always go through periods where I can't listen to any hip-hop, I just get annoyed of it sometimes. But I never get tired of this dude, he's fucking great and from his interviews seems super cool. He has a new album titled Old coming out later this year.

Nicely done. For people that don't know Danny Brown definitely a good summary to see what's up.

[ods..]

Agreed, nice writup Feels. Definitely one of my most anticipated sets; I hope everyone knows every word and it's a huge sloppy mess of a party. I wanna go completely wild

[GolfWang]

this is my favorite Danny Brown song, but he's never played it live.


Can't wait though, he was great at the Echoplex last year.

I love that track too, but I doubt he'd ever play it. The lyrics are so intense.

Same reason he probably won't play this (disclaimer: i have no clue if this is usually in his setlist, but I'm guessing no)

[fistacuffs]

I need to listen to some more. I only know a few songs. His verse on ASAP's 1 Train is my fav on the track though. What's his best 5-10 songs in your opinion?

[ods..]

Listen to the album XXX.

[mikey1313666]

hadn't heard of him till this thread. I dig it. Excited for his set

[waterandcoffee]

CHECK!

[WhyTheLongFace]

I wish I knew more of him cause he was inaudible at HARD Summer IMO and I couldnt make out the lyrics. His "Terrorist Threats" verse is one of my favorite EVER tho so off that I'll always give him a chance

[ianM.]

Ayo golfwang go to 2:00.
Wish he would play it out.

Thanks man! Same here

And I agree as well GolfWang, that song gives me goosebumps every time.

Those last two minutes or so... damn

Yeah I know I've seen that before. Understandable.


In other news, Danny talks about his upcoming album in a new pitchfork interview: http://pitchfork.com/features/update/9047-danny-brown/

The way the beat builds on '30' and his rapping almost turns into a cry is damn powerful.

[Iamwelting]

So can we confirm that he's the only artist to ever play both Coachella and Gathering of the Juggalos?

[AeroplaneJunkie]

yessss Danny is so great. i saw him last year during Death Grips at the Gobi. he was going H.A.M haha. Can he get that 2012 ASAP slot?

[GolfWang]

I'm hoping for Danny Brown into Trash Talk to close the Gobi on Saturday.

bumpppppp.







Dude's always on so many features, I hope he runs through a ton of them.

Danny Brown's set at Pitchfork fest last year was a party, lots of fun. Don't miss him.

FUCK YOU AND YOUR TOUGH TALK
WHEN I MONOPOLIZE I THROW YOUR ASS OFF THE BOARDWALK

[FEELS]

i bet this thread could reach 25+ pages just quoting him

THE WAY THESE BITCHES ON MY COCK YOU'D SWEAR IT WAS 1985 AND TEEN WOLF JUST DROPPED
AND MY NAME WAS MICHAEL J FOX
BUT NO BITCH IT'S DANNY BROWN I GOT SOME WEED UP IN MY SOCKS

[FEELS]

I wish this was a solo Danny Brown track.

"That molly got me nauseous, on shit, no off switch
Lawless, obnoxious, on that "suck my cock" shit
That is my synopsis, ostrich pot shit
Hoes on some God shit, stop it! You not this!"

[Mahe3155]

This freestyle my friend showed me last year sold me on DB! So fucking pumped for his set

[ods..]

Love that video ^^^

[Silence Kid]

New song is great! Hoping he previews some more OLD songs at Coachella.

[stinkbutt]

So I guess his show at a great punk venue here involved him getting head on stage. Kinda bummed I was in Austin for such a fuckin weird event
