40Love - Think Too Much
Artist: 40Love
Producer: Mikos and The Whooligan
Album: Dreams Don't Sleep
Label: Unsigned
Think you Think Too Much? I feel your pain. Unfortunately, there’s no known cure for excessive introspection; in fact, even pondering your affliction is guaranteed to make it worse. Your only hope may be to channel some of that frantic mental activity into an artistic pursuit. The San Francisco natives who make up Booth-newcoming crew 40Love, for example, chose hip-hop as their creative outlet—and, whatever the effectiveness of the treatment, heads are sure to appreciatee the results. An exclusive world premiere, this record finds DJ/producers Miko and The Whooligan layering synth squeals over a minimalistic rhythm section as emcee/vocalist Miss Haze and rapper G-OFF put their gray matter to work on the mic, sharing their reflections on everything from Apple’s secret political views (“I think my iPhone is homophobic, ‘cause when I type ‘syke’ [it’s] autocorrected to ‘dyke.’”) to the nature of God. Has this brainy banger whet your appetite for more? Further food for thought can be found on the crew’s Dreams Don’t Sleep album, dropping July 24, and featuring guest appearances by such underground notables as Zumbi of Zion I, Black Spade and The Park.

They def have a unique sound. This is not something I would regularly listen to, but I am still a fan of this record.

A few seconds into the record I thought I would hate it, but after several listens it really grew on me. I like the hyphy-influenced production elements and funky sound. This isn't exactly the re-invention of the wheel, but I could hear this on the radio. That hook is Cool Kids fresh, yo.

This was different. I like the production by Mikos and The Whooligan. 40Love has some mic skills but something is missing from this one...
