Charles Hamilton is the TRUTH
Ok, when i first saw an interview he did with hiphopgame.com i knew the kid had the personality to make it thru the clutter, but i when i heard his music for the first time i didn't understand what all the hype was about. BUT NOW I GET IT. This multi instrumentalist/emcee has TALENT yo. The past couple days i've listened to a couple of his mixtapes, My Brain is Alive, and My Ex Girlfried Worst Nightmare, and both of them are genius. Producing and writing everything for himself. For first time listeners you may be thrown off by the wierd mix of the production, but this wierd panning of samples and extra thick drum kicks is done on purpose by Charles. It definitely gives him distinctive Dilla-like sound. His lazy delivery does get a bit monotnous at times, but sometimes his lyrics shine thru and the flow becomes hypnotic. If you know good music, you'll see why his latest projects are worth consideration. I can definitely see this cat gaining a strong cult-like fanbase over the next few years...
