I think it's safe to say that Timbaland's "Timbo Thursdays" has been incredibly disappointing. On the surface new releases from one of the best producers in hip-hip history should be epic, but instead Timothy has given us so much warmed over music I stopped even caring about a month ago...until today I saw that new release "Slow Down" featured Blind Fury. I don't think I'm alone when I say, who the fuck is Blind Fury?
So I did some research and it turns out that, as you might have guessed, he's a legally blind rapper who also just so happens to be a pretty good battle rapper. Seriously, check it out:
Well then. Now I'm secretly fascinated with Blind Fury. As for "Slow Down" it's not that dope, but he'd be far from the first battle rapper who couldn't make his flow translate to singles. Plus he does a hell of a Timbo impression. Yep, that's him on the last verse too. It may not be saying much, but this is by far the most I've cared about a Timbo Thursdays release in a minute. Thanks Blind Fury.
And if you're like me and feel oddly compelled to find out more about the man, here ya go.
