I tried to explain Lil B as a new version of Ol' Dirty Bastard. He just speaks from the heart and has his own voice that people have latched on to. People know the real thing when they hear it and he is an original. I think if he is independent and has Koch as a distributor (think I heard that) he makes a larger share per album sold than other people. I used to know stuff like this, so help me if I'm wrong. But he stands to make roughly $5-10 per record whereas the average artist makes $1 or less per record from a major. Cam'ron and Jim Jones talked about this back when him and 50 were beefing. A Koch artist might sell 50,000 records but make more than an artist selling a gold as long as they front their own money in production. I'm probably undershooting his numbers. Plus, just from listening to strippers and comedians, if he is touring 40 weeks/year, he is easily making 6 figures. Which is huge considering he is a solo act and is supporting himself plus travel arrangements with no huge stage show to support. I wish I had saved all the stuff I read back in 2009 about this. temple fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Jan 19, 2012 |

fwiw he apparently hasn't made his first million yet cuz he's still rocking those same vans in his latest video so lil b ain't quite a lowkey millionaire or anything edit: explanation cuz i realized that probably doesn't make any sense unless you're a huge weirdo lil b fan -- he has said (on his twitter, in interviews, in songs) many times that he's gonna wear that same pair of filthy falling apart vans until he makes his first million. then, and only then, he'll get new ones.

My favorite tracks on the new mixtape would have to be Im Down 4 Hire and Les Misrabel, both of which were produced by Lil B. The beats are really good and the delivery is very real and emotional, really good stuff. Also Surrender To Me is great.

In case you've been waiting for a computer generated Lil B music video in which he is a reprogrammed ninja robot with two katanas made by some dudes who make Tom Clancy video games, here it is.

I used to hate this guy and thought he was a joke. Turns out he just may be, and that's why I now love him. Like most, "I'm God" sold me but songs like "We Can Go Down" tells me he could market himself if he wanted, and "T-Shirt & Buddens" showed me he can flow when he gives a poo poo. I wish mainstream media would go back to supporting original, daring artists like this. TYBG for the Internet. With that out of the way?... How can I get White Flame and Rain In England?

Don't know if the links are still around but he gave away I'm Gay and Rain in England for free. Most of this other stuff is on datpiff though.

I just can't get over the fact that he named it "Rain in England." That phrase (and image) conjures very intimate emotions for me and I think the basedgod shares them. edit: I guess its probably not the same if you actually live in "england" the black husserl fucked around with this message at 00:51 on Feb 18, 2012 |

What do you think the best Lil B mixtape is? For me, it's still I'm Thraxx. DOR is the hardest song ever, Go To Dumb is an amazing dada 80s throwback, Rawest Rapper Alive and I'm on my Grind make me so happy, Respect My Mind has the best beat close runners up are Angels Exodus and White Flame

Blue Flame is my favorite. It's the only mixtape I've heard where the drops actually made it better. "drat Son, Where'd you find this?"

6 kiss I think is my favorite, it's got I'm God for one, and it's really a pretty laid back mixtape. I will still throw Evil Red Flame on for a fun rear end time.

I will definitely agree that Blue Flame is bomb. I love BasedGod http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAAU92s7imM "Goddamn, I'm hot. Niggas, mad. Bitches, not" That poo poo just gets me too hype. I reaaaally like both the Bitch Mob tapes though. I can go dumb to them. Goldhouse had crazy rotation during January for me. I think we can all appreciate how well he can transition from dropping Bitch Mob Vol. 1 to Illusions of Grandeur, Goldhouse to White Flame to God's Father. What a range of sounds and attitudes. Thanks, Based God.
