Bobby Creekwater - Pardon My French
Artist: Bobby Creekwater
Producer: The Invisible
Album: DJ Greg Street Presents: Back to Briefcase 2
Label: BGOV
One of the great hip-hop myths is that you need a major label deal in order to be successful. That may have been true twenty years ago, but in the internet age an artist can find all the creative and financial success they want far away from the major label spotlight. Case in point Bobby Creekwater, the former Shady Records emcee who’s now getting his independent hustle on and dropping tracks like Pardon My French with regularity. A lyrically-centered cut built around production from The Invisibles, who combine swirling synths with sharp percussion (more cowbell!), Pardon My French is first and foremost a forum for Creekwater to refuse to apologize for his often outspoken nature, mixing socially conscious lines and outright obscenities into a flow that could only come from one man. Bobby Creekwater fans should find plenty to celebrate in 2010. The emcee reportedly has at least three major projects coming out this year, starting with his DJ Greg Street Presents: Back to Briefcase 2 mixtape, dropping right here on DJBooth.net February 8.

His lyrics are great here, but i'm not feelin the instrumental, I don't think it matches his flow right. Any thoughts on that?

Nice production match to Bobby's vocals. The lyrics are always on point, as is the delivery, but we could have used a bit more energy. Maybe that isn't what this song calls for, though? Not sure.
I do know, though, that BC will be just fine without Shady Records. I am looking forward to his new project (out this Feb).

@The 149th Hmmmm...I don't know if the flow and the production match perfectly, but they do work well together for me. Maybe you were expecting something a little dirtier? I could see that - personally I enjoy my BC a little harder.

I think the production was a good match, but it was a bit too plain for me. It was very relaxing, but maybe too much so. His lyrics and flow were nice, though. I think his flow was a tiny bit too energetic for production like this, but maybe that's just me.

Back in 2k9 this would've received an overall 4* ratings. I think this is a product of the phenomena I like to call "BRING IT 10X HARDER" than you would've last year. Not to say in anyway shape or form this a bad track but he could've come harder.

I find nothing wrong with it, but nothing special bout it either. A good lyrical-driven joint, that's just what it is.
