Sour Soul cover
Released

Kinda stinks that there’s not a more comfortable place for this kind of live hip-hop. BADBADNOTGOOD developed as a sort of catch-all flypaper backing band reproducing a dozen different funk and soul styles sampled in hip-hop, and here Ghost raps over their filtered version of the original records RZA chopped up for him. Danny Brown and MF DOOM both show up here, and there’s not a bad track.
