Underground Fossils is run by Dimxsk and often by Trylemma, who is on a hip hop spiritual journey in the Himalayas and may not be back for a bit. Posts are every Friday, usually some quality old sh*t but sometimes promotional posts or "reviews". We do all we can to make sure we don't post stuff that (1) You can still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You can reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You can download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asks us not to for any reason. Rips will include our own personal rips, old scene rips, and random web rips.

Mellow Drum Addict - Corner of Broadened Mind (2009)

 

 

 This week, after doing a few longer review posts in a row I feel like taking some time off. Not much of that lately. Luckily for you that means more fossils this week, starting off with this gem from Christian rapper Mellow Drum Addict.

Corner of Broadened Mind is a beautiful piece of work. It should appeal to secular rap fans (such as myself) as much as it does to those of us who listen with our religious convictions in mind. Employing a boom bap style with jazzy melodic samples and a voice built both for singing and rhyming, Mellow Drum Addict raps about life, himself, music, and of course morals and values although the preachiness is notably absent here and the emphasis seems to be on creating great hip hop. Mellow Drum Addict is here not a Christian rapper but a rapper who is Christian.

Anyway, that's it for now, enjoy!
