Aesop's Fables

If you have never listened to Aesop Rock then chances are you have been living under an a-hole rock. However, I am sure that there are some of you out there and this blog is for you, my sweet babies. There's not much to Aesop Rock, other than pure, raw talent and cocaine-level addicting beats with the addition of clever, intelligent rhymes. Also, did I mention raw talent? This dude has been making records for years and each one of them is worth your ear-holes' time in their own right. However, I would recommend starting with the Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives EP. Admittedly, this EP came along midway through Aesop's career, and his early stuff kicks some major underground ass, but Fast Cars is where this humble listener feels a good hip-hop artist became great. He truly comes into his own and his flow is simply too good to ignore. After saturating yourself in Rock's tasty jams found on Fast Cars, proceed to any and all albums that suit your fancy or you happen across. Personally, None Shall Pass is a favorite. Bottom line, get some Aesop Rock inside your cranium via your auditory canal. Holler
