Viper – You’ll Cowards Don’t Even Smoke Crack (2008)

December 10, 2021

YOOOOOOOO!!!!! This shit right here be the 2000th Lines In Wax post. I don’t really know what to say other than “thank you” to anyone who is still reading this shit for some reason. Cheers!

Here’s a lil something for you bustas. We were recently talking to Viper about doing a UK/EU release of this thing and talks are ongoing, but yeah – anyways, it reminded me I hadn’t done an entry for it here on LIW. But… what can I say? The Soundcloud / mumble rap world is one thing, You’ll Cowards Don’t Even Smoke Crack is another. Is Viper fucking with us? I still don’t know. And its great.

Vocally, this shit is a travesty. Of course, this is what makes it so much fun. However, the beats on this thing are unironically amazing, especially in the first half. The bass on the title track is heavily reminiscent to me of Masato Nakamura’s soundtrack for “Winged Fortress Zone” on the Sonic 2 game, if I could be so bold to make such a comparison. Yeeeeeeeeaaaahhhh. Uh huuuh.
