Fat & Slim (Formerly of The Pharcyde) - Love (2012)
Slim (better known as Slim Kid Tre or Slimkid3) and Fatlip join up to make a jazzy album that is smooth and addictive from beginning to end. This is definitely one you don't want to miss. The former members of The Pharcyde show that they've still got it.There's a nice mix of dope instrumentals combined with upbeat and positive rhymes from two of the most memorable members of The Pharcyde.

This album is kind of fun. It seems pretty effortless and by that I mean, they didn't put much effort into it, yet it works anyways. Have a listen to this and then Humbolt Beginnings back-to-back and it's pretty obvious what half of the group had/has the talent.
Re: Fat & Slim (Fatlip & Slim Kid Tre)
Honestly, I always felt they were even on both ends. Imani and Romye had the signature high pitched voices that gave Pharcyde that signature sound. Fat Lip and Slim Kid Tre were a bit deeper with the lyrics. And that's what made them as a group because they balanced out one another.Busta Ry wrote:This album is kind of fun.

Imani and Romye sounded like every other squeeky voiced, eunuch rapper from that era. They could have ghost-rapped on any number of Anotha Level or Wascals songs and nobody would have even noticed.Not even a conversation if you want to divide that group into teams of two, IMO. All basically for naught though, as save for a couple songs on Lonliest Punk none of these four have made jack worth listening to in over a decade.ardamus wrote:Imani and Romye had the signature high pitched voices that gave Pharcyde that signature sound.

Fuck that. You know good and cotdayum well that (1) Anotha Level was Ice Cube's version of The Pharcyde and (2) Tha Wascals actually were connected with The Pharcyde. Matter of fact, one of the dudes from The Wascals I recalled had the 2nd verse on the "On The DL" track. C'mon son. That's what made them stand out, too. Other groups tried to follow in their footsteps after the fact.PopeyeJones wrote:Imani and Romye sounded like every other squeeky voiced, eunuch rapper from that era.

Come to think of it, I don't remember anyone completely sounding like them in their prime.

No one ever actually did, but Y'all So Stupid tried, and made at least one song worthy of being on a playlist with Pharcyde.ardamus wrote:Fuck that.
