whenever you call me, whenever you need me


Rappin 4-Tay is a classic Bay Area rapper who has been making music since the early 90's. He is one of my all time favorite MCs, his ultracalm delivery somehow makes his tragic narratives comforting, aided by the minimalist beats and synths that have led some to call 4-Tay "emo rap" (which is ridiculous). I first heard him thru I'll Be Around, which C + J dropped on their lyssnar mix for discobelle. All the songs on his 94 album Don't Fight The Feeling, released just after he got out of prison on drug charges, are ill, buy it. These are all classic trackz. Enjoy!
