New Era Hip Hop Lyricists: Chiddy Bang and Mickey Factz Part 1

Real, raw beats.

Playful, ingenious samples.

Thoughtful, clever lyrics.

They're pretty much amazing.

Part one will be focused on Chiddy Bang, a duo that met as freshmen at Drexel U.

Chiddy on the vocals and Xaphoon Jones on the beats.

99/100

This one samples MGMT's "Kids".

Chiddy Bang - Opposite Of Adults

100/100

Hip hop most certainly is not dead. It can't possibly be. Not with songs like this.

"You think you got it tough just cuz you live in the hood?

Negative.

....

Yes I'm guilty of being privileged.

While I'm in the booth, my cousin is in the village."

Chiddy Bang - "Sooner Or Later"

100/100

Disgusting. Real.

Chiddy Bang - "Dream Chasin"

100/100

Chiddy Bang takes a shot at Tinie Tempah's "Pass Out" beat.

And kills it.

Several times over.

Bonus: Chiddy Bang freestyling to topics from the crowd.
