Aesop Rock - Bushwick (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) '2017

Tracks list

Building on the rapping style of eccentrics Kool Keith and Del the Funky
Homosapien, Def Jux headliner Aesop Rock became one of the hottest MCs in the
post-millennial underground. After a pair of self-released LPs (Appleseed, Music
for Earthworms), he recorded Float for Mush in 2000. The former Ian Bavitz then
issued a pair of singles -- Coma and Boom Box -- for another underground rap
label paragon, Definitive Jux. His second full-length, 2001s Labor Days, earned
positive reviews and featured production from El-P and Blockhead. The Daylight
EP kept his name in the papers, and his Def Jux follow-up, Bazooka Tooth, was
released in September 2003. A seven-track EP, Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and
Knives, followed in early 2005. 
In early 2007 Aesop Rock composed a 45-minute piece for Nikes Original Run
series, a continuous track meant to be listened to while jogging (other artists
included LCD Soundsystem and the Crystal Method), and by September his
much-anticipated full-length, None Shall Pass, which included guest appearances
from El-P and John Darnielle (from the Mountain Goats), came out. A year later,
Def Jux would be put on hiatus by label head El-P, but Aesop would remain busy,
producing major works like Felts 2009 effort Felt 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez
and working on a collaboration with the Moldy Peaches Kimya Dawson dubbed the
Uncluded. He would return to his solo career in 2012 with Skelethon, released by
the Rhymesayers label. The album featured a guest appearance from Dawson along
with Rob Sonic and Allyson Baker of Dirty Ghosts.
