Local Hip hop duo Grand Invincible's single from their 2008 debut Ask The Dust. Early 90's golden age revivalist hip hop at its finest. As Kevvy Kev said, play it early, play it often.
FCCs: 1, 3, 4
1: Slammin' guitar jazzy beat with some nice horns, classic drums. Luke Sick spits the truth as usual. Dope shit, play this.
2: Instrumental of Track 1.
3: More unconventional beat, eerie plodding bass. Very Madlib-y. Luke Sick shouts out Palo Alto! Not quiet as tight as track 1, but still cool.
4: Badass piano chords, pretty sure Dilla sampled this. Nice drums, old-school rhymes, wicka-wickas, all bases covered. Not great, but solid.
5: Instrumental of 4.
6: acapella of 4.
