This is rap as smashing atoms not trying to replicate Main Source. So grime and jungle and No Wave are twisted into the Swisher. The feel is dirt under your fingernails, turnstile-hopping anarchy. You don't have to bomb trains to still bomb the system. The experiments of 'So It Goes' were recorded between DJ Dog Dick's studio in Greenpoint and Just Blaze's Stadium Red. Young Guru, famed for his work with Jay Z, engineered it. King Krule, Wavy Spice, and Salomon Faye pop up to trade bars and hooks. It's the feeling of spitting on pedestrians from a 20-story building or the raspy stoned neon chaos of late nights and early mornings in the city. A similar punk-rap fuck-the- world ethos of The Beastie Boys and Biggie or the post-punk funk of Television and Suicide.  Double LP features poster, oversticker and digital download code.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XL","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50484138639691,"sku":"373822","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/8b961c32-1b08-4624-9ebb-c8ce125e66d3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727582485"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/collections\/test_48a24329_thumbnail_4096_5b08e939-010e-48b6-b88d-664f3d0694f7.jpg?v=1727582467","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/ratking.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
