Mr. Muthafuckin eXquire & ShowYouSuck: "Carne Asada"

Transformers masks await.

I first found out about Chicago's ShowYouSuck when he tweeted something angry at me. I listened to his music, thought he was pretty cool, and then sort of forgot about him. Next thing I know, he and Mr. Muthafuckin eXquire are showing up in music videos together, and this is pretty phenominal. The pair is rapping over the sort of lurching, open-ended drill-inflected beat that allows a creative rapper to bend it to their will, and both eX and SYS do it right. The video is casually ominous in all the right ways, both rappers dipped in Mishka and someone wearing a Transformers mask into a chicken spot. The track itself is from eXquire's The Man In The High Castle mixtape, and will also show up on ShowYouSuck's amazingly named One Man Pizza Party: Rest In Pizza, due out soon.
