The CunninLynguists - Never Come Down

CunninLynguists - Never Come Down

Producer: Kno

Album: Strange Journey Volume 1

Label: RBC Records/Bad Taste Records

Some smokers use weed to decompress from the daily grind, others find it enhances their creative abilities, and others simply enjoy the social rituals that accompany its use. Me? I’ve learned to avoid it entirely, because—I’ll admit it—I just can’t handle the stuff. One puff, and I’m transported to a place where normally-innocuous things like guitars and children’s cartoons are incredibly confusing and scary (don’t even get me started on how much Pink Floyd freaks me out), wondering, “What if I Never Come Down?!” On this new track, Kno, Deacon the Villain, and Natti of the CunninLynguists find themselves in a similar situation thanks to an unexpectedly potent batch of THC-fortified brownies—over Kno’s euphorically catchy classic rock instrumental, the Southern-rap vets chronicle their attempts to deal with the stratospheric high, packing their verses with hilariously discombobulated lyrical gems. My own unpleasant high school memories aside, this spaced-out cut is sure to earn acclaim from Booth regulars, whether stoned or straight; fans can find plenty more mind-altering jams on the ‘Lynguists’ Strange Journey Vol. 1 mixtape, released this past Wednesday.

BDF44 Tastemaker Total Ratings: 2281	Rating: BDF44's Top Rated Songs The CLs are a solid group. They unfortunatly will always be stuck in that underground field, because of their unwillingness to "sell out" or conform. It's good to see hip hop sticking to its guns in this case. I like this track, not really something I'll be listening to often, but its decent track.
