Artist: Quasimoto Album: Yessir Whatever

Music blogs, and underground hip-hop sites began exploding over the past couple of months because a rumor began to spread that Madlib, had finished his latest album under his alter ego, Quasimoto (also known as Lord Quas) . Quas is known for the raised pitch of his voice as if he was inhaling helium.  He didn't like the sound of his voice  so he decided to slow his recorder down, rap slowly, then speed the recording back up to produce Quasimoto's distinctive high pitched voice.

One of the main blogs that I tend to check, is potholesinmyblog.com, which is a hip-hop based blog that really does a good job of mixing up reviews and news into one blog. It goes through both mainstream and underground hip-hop but is a great source if you are looking to see what is new on the hip-hop scene.


I decided not to write a review for this album, but let you guys look at the review of the album from this blog!

I think this review is a very clean and straight forward look into what exactly Quasimoto is as an artist. He uses all kinds of influences in order to create his beats and also draws from various different sources in order to make his lyrics. I agree with the reviewer when they say that Madlib(Quas) is not afraid of  releasing music, and most times his music can be somewhat disappointing, but this release is not. 

Check out the review and check out the album, well worth the listen.
