OLD SCHOOOL!!!!!!!
I think Del has the best delivery of any emcee. Smooth. He can say the weirdest shit, but have it make sense just by the way he times it. Can't wait to check this!!
Man Nima, I've been waitin so long for this! This track is so 90's I love it. Just can't wait until the album drops, I'm ready to cop it. Why didn't you tell me on MSN directly? Shame on you Props that you didn't forgot about Del, he's one of my favourite rappers. That saved my day for real.
Del the Funky Homosapien has leaked a new track from his upcoming album Eleventh Hour to be released on March 11th via Definitive Jux records. The track, entitled “Bubble Pop” is the first glimpse into Del’s long awaited solo follow-up to a string of popular albums released in the 1990s (I Wish My Brother George Was Here, No Need for Alarm, Future Development, and Both Sides of the Brain). Since then, the Bay Area MC has concentrated on several collaborations; including 2000’s Deltron 3030 with Dan “The Automator” Nakamura and Kid Koala and 2001’s Gorillaz with Blur’s Damon Albarn. But fans have been hungry for another solo album from one of the most creative rappers on the scene.Eleventh Hour is that album, and it was eight years in the making. During that time, Del holed up in the studio to study music theory and produce the majority of the tracks on what would be his fifth solo album. “Bubble Pop,” which premiered yesterday on PitchforkMedia.com, is the first track from Eleventh Hour to go public, and it shows Del’s new approach to his craft.“You’ll probably spend the first thirty seconds of “Bubble Pop” wondering where Del got the chutzpah to sample the bell-heavy, “Peter Piper”-claimed bit of Bob James’ “Take Me to the Mardi Gras” break and the last thirty having pretty much forgotten why it might’ve been questionable in the first place. Whether that’s due to Del’s MCing or his production is your call, really. The track’s got a pretty dense beat where the bells have to spar with this doughy, bouncy bassline that’s frivolous and ridiculous and vaguely caricature– futuristic in a likeable way; think Zapp crossed with incidental music from The Jetsons…” writes Pitchfork.Del The Funky Homosapien Eleventh Hour track list:1.
