props to dream for introducing me to the wonderful world of outlandish
outlandish is a moroccan, cuban, and pakistani — living in denmark
now that’s a different crew
many of their rhymes are pretty good, the musicism is tite, the spinning in of their respective languages at some points isn’t fake and crass
some of their rhymes are a bit weak, must admit
but much respect to outlandish, they’re different
quite different
standout tracks: guantanamo, if only, el moro, peelo, love joint, fatima’s hands, aicha
now i just finished watching bollywood/hollywood
which is an amazing movie (but i figure only desis will truly understand its import and implications)
it’s hilarious, damned hilarious, especially how they spontaneously break into song
speaking of which, the music from that movie is very good
particularly “sona sona roop hai” and “rang rang mein”
the second song has me going
i am totally loving it
