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.

soso - Poor Man’s Survey (2004)

 


 

Thanks for tuning in again folks, and as promised I've upped my game and delivered some fresh music on time. 30 minutes or it's free, so send me money. Just kidding.

That important bit out of the way, what we have here is a collection of some beats by someone who is probably one of my favorite musicians as well as rappers. I don't really weight what he does against any other rappers to be fair, because his level of originality, compositional ingenuity and absolutely brutal emotional songwriting puts his music on a level that's almost it's own genre.

soso's album Poor Man's Survey is a collection of  instrumentals, mostly songs with fellow prairie rap god Epic made 'as a companion piece to soso's 7"' according to a Discoger. It's pretty damn good, soso's production is absolutely fantastic with or without lyrical accompaniment. It's stark and dark and somehow sums up what I imagine a Canadian winter to sound like so perfectly...

Why am I sharing this today? Because I'm so f*cking stoked to be hearing a new vocal album from the man himself, with super producer Maki out at the end of the month. Go ahead and preorder it here if you're in the State's and here if you're not, or want to get a physical. Check out the links at the bottom of Mism's page for sources.

Enjoy, soso is peerless and I guarantee you'll love some of this at least.
