Gottdamn this song is hard. Whether it’s a late pass or second listen, “Rare Form” is too dope be lost in the shuffle. Locksmith is talking that shit,and flexes the skill to back it up. Sure there is a line or two for shock value (Kanye!), but amidst the slaying he’s actually spitting with substance. Be on the look out for his debut Frank The Rabbit (huh!?).
Hip-Hop in its rarest form applies double for today.

I was always a big fan of the Frontline stuff, but I like the idea of a locksmith solo…with e-a ski beats like this.
question for the heads, what’s been the best battle rapper album?
Best battle rapper album would be KRS One ‘Return of The Boom Bap’.
Nice.
Dude sounds/looks like what would happen if you locked Evidence in a room with steroids and a bunch of Eminem CDs. He’s too light skinned to be that angry.
yay areaaa!! Frontline is dope, but i am also looking forward to the Locksmith solo. I guess it’s pretty evident what a UC Berkeley education can do for your rhymes.
link???
All “Rare Form” is missing is a Bun B collabo.
Similar to Canibus…hope its not the same result.
i liked that a lot. Thanks CB. EASki makes fucking bangers.
Whatever happened to E-A-Ski’s Earthquake album? According to them old Source ads, it was supposed to be the greatest collection of music in the history of mankind.
Eh. the flow has been done to death. And to much better effect. I wasn’t impressed with this. I kept thinking about what a better rapper or someone with more personality could have done with this track.
Reminds me of Chino XL.
E-A Ski?
The most overhyped underrated producer on the West.
I woulda actually copped that Earthquake album back in the day.
I’m feeling this shit. For real..
This fool is out Frontline? I don’t remember them being this lyrically sharp..
Wheres the link for the Rare Form track? Or am I missing something
