100dBs & Ryan-O'Neil - Wait a Minute
Artist: 100dBs & Ryan-O'Neil
Producer: 100dBs
Album: Tea & Spliffs
Label: HiPNOTT Records
In the contemporary consumer society, identity is one more commodity to be bought and sold. Whether you want to blend in with your peers or assert yourself as a unique individual, that style can be yours for the right price. Regardless, Booth newcomers 100dBs and Ryan-O’Neil aren’t about to let hip-hop become one more fashion for hipsters to try on now and discard later. On new single Wait a Minute, dBs creates a head-noddable, boom-bap backdrop for his mic-rocking partner’s iconoclastic dismissal of all store-bought personae: “Call me a critic, a cynic or f**king rigid, but I won’t give into any subscriptions / Not part of any scene, not part of any crowd / but my sound pounds loud, so you know what I’m about.” DJ Far East completes the picture with a titular sample from Public Enemy’s Shut Em Down, as well as borrowing some kitschy passages from How to Speak Hip, a comedic spoken-word album from 1959. For more, check out sophomore collaborative set Tea & Spliffs when it hits record stores and online retailers November 27.

100dBs & Ryan-O'Neil released one of my all time favorite albums in 2007 with The Adventures of the One Hand Bandit and the Slum Computer Wizard. I'm ecstatic that the duo are back together for a second album and that they've asked me to be a part of it. This is the Hip-Hop that I crave!!!

Really chill style by all. I like the flows, but the deliveries was a bit dated overall... 100dB's made a cool beat with tight DJ cuts in the chorus. It's cool.

Really dope flow on this from 100dBS. It reminded me of one of the Odd Future rappers. Really chill beat to flow on.

The flow delivered on this track is dope. Feeling the beats and the overall old school feel. Lyrics are nice as well!
