Or as New Yorker music critic Sasha Frere-Jones put it, “Another way to revive rap… take away the music.” What do you think? How long before he’s signed? [via Sasha Frere-Jones]

oh i dont know, maybe another hour? lol that was really really good. where is the kick from though? is he kicking something under the table?
A better percussionist than a rapper BY FAR. No voice, and it's just another crack-ghetto-ho rap if you understand the lyrics. Good musicianship though!
BTW, there are lots of hip-hop multitaskers–look up Killa Kela and Flutebox, for example.
wow. agreed that the percussion is more impressive than the lyrics, but STILL.
I sense a Bic pen endorsement in his future!
Looks like he is doing the 'kick' with his right-hand wrist bone. That right-hand does most of the work.
Even more than just rhyming, the kid would make a great producer. Innate rhythm monster – and his lyrics weren't bad, I've learned not to expect the world from the kids – gotta give them something new to express yknow?
