Brother Ali Meets Flying Lotus

Brother Ali vs. Flying Lotus – BNGN MY SH*T [mp3]
Brother Ali’s bowtie flow meets The Flying Lotus. The mashup is a bit uneven, but I applaud DJ Stv Slv for trying. On a somewhat related note, Ali’s new album is nasty.

I’m Not Sure We Needed a Video for This

But in case you forgot how dope The Truth Is Here EP was, it serves as a brief reminder. “Chappelle busts funnies, Mos Def busts rhymes. Muhammad Ali’s the greatest of all time” is in the running for best line of the year.

Brother Ali is ‘The Truth’

Two years ago, Brother Ali merged forces with esteemed producer and Steven Seagal’s illegitimate twin (that would be Ant) to create one of the most cohesive albums hip-hop has seen in years. Ali’s back with a new EP where he raps about how he went from being “that albino rapper” to headlining shows and shopping for underwear alongside Rakim, among other things. I seriously recommend Truth Is Here EP(Rhymesayers) as a holdover pending the fall release of Ali’s third full-length, The Street Preacher.

3 The Hard Way


(((enlarge poster for details)))

3 of alternative hip-hop’s best on the same stage. Imagine if they made an album together. With Premo supplying the cuts. And Kanye blessing the first single…

Hey, a brother can dream.

Video: Brother Ali – "Uncle Sam Goddamn"


Brother Ali’s Undisputed Truth underperformed on the charts, so much that it was largely outsold by The Ezekiel Hanani LP.

I’m kiddin’, of course. The Undisputed Truth raked in an impressive 10,781 units in its first week. Which is like quadruple platinum in Indy land.
