Cool teaser and all, but drop some shit already.
sh*tty.

these dudes need to stop making these low quality vids of samples to songs.

i dont get how they think it helps.

its like if someone was releasing a movie and they put out a half butt trailer shaky video camera.

you're not promoting your sh*t correctly as*holes.
I think Aesop is kinda past the point of having to care about how shit is being promoted. He's in that EL-P upper-underground zone where a blurry screenshot of your next album's tracklist will immediately be posted by Pitchfork.

He's probably got Banksy doing the lead video for free on Super 8.

David Lynch shit, you really don't need to give a shit because everyone else already does.

I mean you're absolutely right.

I guess my main issue is at least let us have a better quality snippet (no homo) of the single or any random song.

dont give us some crap recorded on your iphone thats sounds worse than a blu (post-below the heavens) album quality-wise

he said that these lyrics were supposed to be on the album but he used them for this remix instead.

if the flow and lyrics on the album are this on point, we're in for a treat

Piff Tannen · Post by **Piff Tannen** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 6:51 pm

yeah thats why im confused yo, i mean, the hook didnt seem like itd take a long time to learn, but its still crazy/tight to hear the crowd yell back the hook for a song that aint even out

wuk · Post by **wuk** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 8:19 pm

he probably taught it to them before the song, like a call and response thing
