Whose Line?
Wayne Brady was a guest on Shade 45 last week and before chucking the deuces, DJ Wonder put him through the 5 Fingers of Death. Quiet as kept, Brady’s rhymes are better than most rappers. UPDATE: Brady was back on the show recently and did it again. He still got it.
During last night’s Hip Hop Inauguration Ball, Wayne Brady covered Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” while Doug E. Fresh beat-boxed. Only thing iller than this would be longer footage.
Wale, in this track, shows once again his ability to blend different genres. He doesn't limit himself to hip-hop, but enriches it with R&B nuances, creating a familiar sound. This fusion is not only an exercise in style, but serves to intensify the emotional impact of the song. And then there is his ability to rap. Wale is a master at playing with words, creating complex rhymes and modulating his voice to best express his emotions. In 'Blanco', his rap part is an explosion of words that intertwine with the melody, creating a hypnotic and relaxing effect. His ability to go from moments of pure energy to moments of deep introspection is what makes this track so engaging; it reminds me of when you would slow dance, hugging your woman.
