Manic D is a Portland based rapper, and more currently a comic creator, who is perhaps best known for being the rapper half of the duo Newspeak. Today's post is an early self-titled 3 track EP from the man, though I'm not sure as to the exact date of release.
Manic D displays an early playful, nerdy, West Coast inspired delivery on the EP over a handful of jazzy boom bappy beats. The main theme on the project is a painting of his life as a struggling rapper, though there are some hints of more introspective themes (topics that he dives into much more currently, especially in his comics.) You won't be blown away by anything on these 3 short tracks, but, for an old relic, it's certainly worth the 10 minute listen.
If anyone knows when this was released or the titles of the tracks (I have the cdr, but it contains no such info,) please let me know.
