Pitchfork Best New Tracks on Das Racist
6 months agoDas Racist: "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell (Wallpaper. Remix)"
It's just a couple of dudes on cell phones trying to meet at a 2-for-1 Yum! Brands franchise-- "I'm at the Pizza Hut," "No, I'm at the Pizza Hut," it pretty much goes on like that-- but somehow it's going to be one of the songs of the summer. Reactions within our staff have ranged from "I'd like to punch these guys in the face" and "this was sent here to destroy my interest in music" to "Harold and Kumar existentialism" (this wasn't me) and "a critique of...a href="http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/11301-combination-pizza-hut-and-taco-bell-wallpaper-remix/">more at pitchfork.com

Das Racist are best known for effortlessly rattling off line after line in a way that sounds like they've simply edited down a casual conversation. On "Power", one of the high notes from their proper full-length debut Relax , they prove themselves just as adept at rapping with urgency. Here, they're joined by underground rap pals Danny Brown and Despot ; everyone sounds like they chugged energy drinks (or something much less innocuous) and attempted to out-rap each other. They all come out in top form, but the barky, manic Brown wins: "I tell my hoes what they wanna hear like I'm a psychic/ Don't like young hoes/ Them bitches can't cook/ I eat an old hoe like the Big Bad Wolf", he raps over a Dash Speaks -produced beat that sounds like a tense, industrially-geared retooling of the "Return to Innocence" production he provided on Sit Down, Man . If it's true that you're only as good as the company you keep, Das Racist have chosen wisely. [from Relax ; out now via Greedhead Music ]
