I’m perpetually a sucker for videos that channel the bargain-basement grit of the vintage Yo! MTV Raps days. The clip for “Get It Right Now!” the lead single from Del’s free give-a-way, Funk Man (The Stimulus Package), amounts to little more than him smoking blunts in a squalid apartment, and black and white shots of him mean-mugging in a fur-trimmed hoodie. It’s awesome. I haven’t listened to the full album yet, but judging from this single, the best advice is to get it right now.

You had me at “amounts to little more than him smoking blunts in a squalid apartment”. Also, keep that fur trimmed hoodie talk on the low before hipsters get word of it and make it their own. (Not that it belongs to anybody or anything at the moment)

I completely agree–very smart and salient points. There is no way Del should be making the 9th best album of the quarter.
