I used to be a big fan of Mr Lif...until the Mo' Mega album, in which he sold himself out disgracefully to frat boy fucks...as for his other wicked songs:
mr lif- wanted
mr lif- target gristle
mr lif- madness in a cup
mr lif - phantom
mr lif - earthcrusher
the perceptionists- breathe in the sun
perceptionists - love letters
There are more, mate, but that is my main set of favourites...lif can rhyme, and his heart and mind are definitely in the Right place. Worth delving into...

they came before...long before. He also made an album during Obama's election campaign and then his election. All of which is very raw, some of which is wicked. I am sure you will understand my earlier comments when you wade your way through mo mega and find washitup...he went from political hero, to spastic zero, so fucking quickly. Such is the quality of his earlier work, especially madness in a cup and wanted, that he obviously haS THE talent to redeem himself...time will tell.

Shit thanks for reminding me of this guy, I haven't listened to his stuff in forever. I use to have a DVD of him touring with El-P, not only is he a good rapper but he's pretty damn funny and smokes alot of herb. I also use to have a couple of his albums, one was with the perceptionist.
I don't know what happened to any of those things...along with my favorite pair of cargo pants. I hate losing shit.
