Buck 65 - Pants on Fire

Hi, I’m Sherwin and I’m going to play you something from my homeland of Canada.

Just kidding, it’s just me, Max, but I really am going to play you something from the Great White North. Buck 65, one of the artists I listened to during my “fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me” phase (black was my preffered color of clothing and anything sufficiently angsty and/or creepy was on my massive 128MB Wal-Mart mp3 player) is an MC from Nova Scotia and has, what I think is, a fairly unique style of hip hop. Unique enough to little goth Max to enjoy it.

I never had a complete album of his, so when I downloaded Man Overboard this week and listened to it from start to finish without any real low point, I knew this was a good choice for Soundboard this week. So put on some Y2K era headphones, roll out a blanket, watch the stars and let the angst waft over you. As usual, you’re welcome.

Runners up:

• No Doubt - Settle Down (very close 2nd place)
• Atom and His Package - The Palestinians Are Not The Same Thing As The Rebel Alliance, Jackass
• Duologue - Crave
