Fuck yeah, could you ever imagine a more unlikely and intensely awesome combination? Hudson Mohawke, easily one of the illest beatmakers alive, and Elzhi, one of the craziest emcees alive? I had first made a mash-up of Spotted and Aesop Rock's "Citronella", but felt that Aesop was a bit too obvious for HudMo's style. Besides, I wanted to do something that came completely outta left field. It's a bit sloppy towards the end, and some of the adlibs don't make much sense, but it's worth the listen in spite of any possible faults.
This was made using Hudson Mohawke's "Moogli" and Elzhi's verse on Exile's "Time Has Come".
Oddisee is one of the many up-and-coming beatmakers in this new wave of production whose ability and raw talent is truly jaw-dropping. Just skip over Asher Roth's verse. Yuck. Arby Wan Kenobi
