There are a lot of rappers out there, there are a lot of comedians out there too. A few brave souls decide they got game in both and double dip. It's absolutely refreshing....
...Lil Dicky is the hip-hop spirit animal of comedian David Andrew Burd. His first record appropriately named Professional Rapper has sleek beats, smooth flows, and light-heart comedic relief (heavily) peppered in. The way Lil Dicky takes
what you might typically hear on your local hip-hop station and makes it his own is worth the $7.99 on iTunes (Amazon & Google Play too). Not to mention catching his set at Euphoria Fest 2016! When I gave the album a first run though it was background music while I made dinner. Soon I found myself bopping and chopping to the beats. His flows are quirky which isn't surprising being he is part comedian too. Flip the repeat switch and notice how relatable his rhymes actually are. We aren't all rap stars pouring up in the clubs every night (or never). Instead he flows about the everyday life of awkwardly trying to pick up Honeys to the embarrassing conversations with the parental figures, he's got it covered. If I have to be honest, I think I enjoyed his mix-tape So Hard equally as much. Check it out on Sound Cloud for yourself and don't forget to mark your calendar. Lil Dicky is taking the stage at Euphoria Fest 2016 on Sunday, April 10th. He's shoving his way to top of everyone's radar, all with a smile on his face not a scowl like most rappers.If there is anyone out there trying to down play his credibility as a rapper, ask yourself, does your title track feature the one and only Snoop Dogg?
