WTF is this?
Oh Canada!
So here's a illy group I just discovered after heard a collabo with the Cool Kids which was fiyyaaaa (Heavens Gate, Hell's Flames)... Vocals are illy very Kenna like and i like the infusion of R&B, Metal, and Hip-Hop...i'm loving music right now..This summer is gonna be ill.
The Year of the Concert.
While we were glancing back to find them however, that band — Canadian Post-Punk/R&B-fusion duo The Carps — pulled up right alongside us as they moved forward themselves with the release of their second EP, a six-song collection titled Waves and Shambles. The band is still fronted by singer/drummer Jahmal Tonge (who also handles guitar and programming) with Neil White in charge of synthesizers and taking the bass for a walk. The last time I bigged these kids (and their previous EP The Young and Passionate Days of Carpedia) up I likened them to a more Punk-influenced Kenna, comparing Neil to Chad Hugo and citing Michael Jackson & Lenny Kravitz as points of reference for Jahmal’s singing style.

The comparison to Kenna (and probably Chad & Pharrell’s pet N*E*R*D project to a certain extent) still stands this time out, with catchy hooks, conscious lyrics, soulful shouts and slithery synths twisting around fuzzy riffage the order of the day. But they’ve grunged up their guitar and bass attack a bit, trading in the Punky bounce for an aggressive growl that calls more on their Hardcore and Metal influences. Which in turn has Jahmal coming off something like a New School incarnation of Living Colour vocalist Corey Glover a little something.

The Game Shits on "White Rapper Show"
He basically said what every black person who ever saw that debacle was thinking. And lame ass John Brown or whatever the fuck his name is actually made a response to his comments, but who fucking cares? He sucks. "King of the Burbs". Corniest shit ever.
