Homeboy Sandman - The Good Sun

Makes sense, I always thought he sounded a bit like Lootpack as it is. Just means his shit will be harder to jack online.

Calm Tornado reminds me a lot of Mos Def at his best. Especially flow-wise.

"The Carpenter" is the ish. Easily one of best hip-hop songs of the year. Never gets old.

I can't wait to hear Sandman over Madlib beats.

Canned Goods is the one that really stood out on first listen.

yes that is a great song. my favorite so far is still "Mine All Mine" but "Canned Goods" is great all around.

im offended no one is talking about this EP

This is dope, didn't even realize it had dropped until I checked this thread today. In the past I've tried to get into Sandman's music, but he's always left me a little bored. I made a point to check this though because he seems like a good fit with stones throw and I'm usually feeling their production.

After one listen I have to say it's pretty great, I still can't see myself listening to Sandman on a regular basis, but when I'm in the mood for some smart, artsy, everyman rap I'll definitely keep his name in mind.

No Madlib beats on this? Does he have a full length dropping with them this year too?

unclebengi · Post by **unclebengi** » Mon Feb 06, 2012 9:06 pm

Damn this shit's ill...Unforgettable is the joint.

yep. i hear he's picking out beats now.

samdoom · Post by **samdoom** » Wed Feb 08, 2012 5:20 pm

the ep is real dope. i think the artwork with his explanations for the tracks made it even more enjoyable. i also think the bonus track that wasn't on the ep may be better than any of the individual tracks on the ep. that song is non-stop quotables.

Elaborate on why you don't like this cat's music. Not because you should or you shouldn't like it, I'm just curious.

New EP dropped today, might actually get me to give the new billy woods a rest for a while tonight-

Homeboy Sandman seems to get better and better.. the ep is dope. Cool video too, I love Range Rovers.

unclebengi · Post by **unclebengi** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 1:35 pm

I don't think I like the EP as much as the last one, but that's ok because it doesn't sound anything like the last one. He's shown a great ear for beats on these two EP's even without really working with many established producers. Expectations are high for the full length.

That Sadat X song was released months ago, but X is really on a roll with the videos. I didn't think I'd be excited about a Sadat X album at this stage in his career, but everything he's leaked sounds great.

Funny that only a few years ago Despot, Homeboy Sandman, Elucid, Zesto, Masai Bey and billy woods all rocked Yule Prog, yet none of them headlined and it was 10 bucks.

I would pay a lot of money to see that show now.

ardamus · Post by **ardamus** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 2:45 pm

"Hold Your Head" is ridiculous. Would like to see a video for that song.

Busta Ry · Post by **Busta Ry** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 8:56 pm

For shame, this vids only got 859 views in over a week. How do these 40 something rappers make any money on the grind anymore? Or how does any underground cat for that matter. I just picked up that Homeboy EP on Itunes. Shit goes.
