El-P: “The Full Retard” from Cancer for Cure (Fat Possum, 5/22/12)
With one of the year’s best samples over a massive, fuzzy bass line, El-P and his brand of science-fiction futurism are front and center on “The Full Retard,” and it’s boom-bap at its finest. Special shout-out and “pump this shit” sample in tribute to Camu Tao (RIP).
Pretty cool list of songs for 2012.
