K-Beta is the “Paperbag Writer (Freestyle)” (Listen & Download)

142 emcees have stepped inside the DJBooth to spit an exclusive freestyle for their ongoing series, but almost no one has done so as creatively as DMV representer and RefinedHype favorite K-Beta on his trippy "Paperbag Writer (Freestyle)". On a production tip, Beta takes the Radiohead track of the same name and flips it into a vocally chopped but always smooth hip-hop joint, dropping references from everything to pandas to snitches. It take a brave man to go over some Thom Yorke, and apparently Beta, like Bonecrusher, ain't never scared.

Oh, and is is just be or does this somehow sound kind of Jurassic 5-esque?

I feel like you can't truly appreciate this joint unless you hear the original, so for comparison purposes here's the Radiohead version. Download links and player are underneath the video.
