Ab-Soul - Constipation
Artist: Ab-Soul
Featuring: Jay Rock , Kendrick Lamar
Producer: Sounwave
Album: Long-Term Mentality (#LTM)
Label: Top Dawg Ent.
I know what you’re thinking: with all the fiber-rich granola consumed by your average flower child, how could a crew called Black Hippy be anything but regular? Oh – I was the only one wondering about that? Awkward. Thankfully, Constipation has more to do with Ab-Soul, Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolboy Q being the sh*t than any trials and tribulations involved with taking one. The latest leak off Ab-Soul’s forthcoming mixtape, this cut finds Sounwave superimposing Spaghetti-Western horn and guitar riffs over a rolling breakbeat as the Top Dawg labelmates demonstrate that, despite their penchant for peace, love and patchouli, Black Hippy most certainly ain’t nuthin to f*ck with. Appropriately for a joint with a pronounced retro vibe, the collaborators amp up the old-school party ambiance with a little lighthearted line-trading: “The reason why the chicks always fallin’ on this?” “Two n*ggas getting’ high.” “Flying objects!” Hoping that Black Hippy’s more than a one-time deal? Speak up and make it happen! In the meantime, you’ll be able to find Constipation and much more on Ab-Soul’s Long-Term Mentality (#LTM) , set to hit the ‘net April 5.

The TDE movement is in full effect these days and its no surprise why. Hip Hop music has had me constipated for years, but the Black Hippy's "Constipation" provides much needed relief. Did I go to far with that?

This definitely has a real 90s vibe for me, like Tribe meets Onyx meets Das EFX. Great to see these guys continue to build their movement.
