The latest from Los Angeles underground hip hop hero and Project Blowed's most eclectic emcee, BUSDRIVER. An eighteen-track mental supernova of lightning-quick lyrical flow--delivered in a high-speed style of jazz scale rhyming that leaves his audiences mesmerized and wondering how someone who speaks so fast can always be so articulate and on point--and brilliant grooves featuring guest vocals from LA all-stars ACEYALONE, 2MEX, XOLOLANXINXO, RADIOINACTIVE, and RHETORIC.

On the tenuous fringes of what can be deemed "rap" there lies the reviled LA maverick, Busdriver, who for years has been wowing unsuspecting audiences with his patented visceral onslaught of rants, rhyming and displaced musical sensibility. Whether sitting-in with such unlikely cohorts as Islands, Daedelus, Z-Trip, TTC, Boom-Bip, 2mex etc., or plowing through his enthralling solo sets, there is a distinct brand of showmanship employed by Busdriver and at least a handful of concert-goers who are maladjusted    [ read more ]

"Possessing a hyper-literate, intellectual style of rapping augmented with dizzying elocution that would tongue-tie even the fiercest auctioneer, Busdriver is eclectic and eccentric enough to cite vocalese jazz singer Jon Hendricks as a primary influence. Born Regan Farquhar, the Los Angeles MC was introduced to hip-hop culture early -- his father wrote the screenplay to one of the earliest films focusing on hip-hop, Krush Groove.

In the most cohesive work of his career, Busdriver turns his razor-sharp wit on his place in the music industry with Fear of a Black Tangent, the follow-up to his career-establishing release, Temporary Forever. Songs about small-club touring, independent music promotion, and the barrage of uninspired hip hop releases on the market all contribute to the album's theme of trying to break as a emerging artist.
