Cage- "Nothing Left to Say" (prod. El-P) x "I Never Knew You"


I didn't like the track at first, but it definitelly grew on me. Big time. I'm posting this with the track on loop in the background, so give it a listen. Actually, give it two, just in case you don't feel it the first time, because I assure you that you will the second time.

"Cage isn’t rapping about scalping motherfuckers anymore, and he’s lost a certain devil-may-care shock-rap joyousness in his transition to freaked-out adulthood. But “Nothing Left to Say” still drips with catharsis, partly because of Cage’s own spittle-flecked intensity but mostly because of El-P’s beat, which starts out as an ominous synth-tone wobble and turns into a disorienting industrial clatter. If and when Shia LaBoeuf ever gets around to making that Cage biopic he’s been kicking around for a while, this one might soundtrack some sort of hitting-rock-bottom montage."

UPDATE:So apparently Shake got the wrong link, the above song is actually called "I Never Knew You". Personally I like "I Never Knew You" better, but who cares, two is better than one.

Props to Shake
