Melancholy Radio - night_shade's melancholy sounds

[night_shade]

EDIT: So fuck the depressing hip hop thing, I'm just going to use this thread to post little mixes I throw together. The first series will be mostly indy songs with a slightly melancholy sound to them. This is the sound I'm into at the moment. Feel free to comment and discuss. Will upload the first one today.

First song that came to mind was Problems by Fuc That. He sounds like he's definitely soul searching on that song and the beat has a melancholy feel. Same with S.K.I.T.S by Lord Finesse as an MC who visualizes the problems of ghetto life.
