Today, we give thanks to Frank Leone for dropping one of the most enjoyable minutes-plus of hip-hop that we’ve seen in some time. “Walnut Tableture,” the latest tide-me-over as we wait for Frank‘s Enter Wild LP, finds Frank rapping over “igital_Short” from Chuk Le Garcon‘s EchoLocation tape, found here. In just a few releases, Frank has already displayed immense variability, covering moods ranging from dark and disturbed, to jittery and slick (to sunken malice), to now, jazzy and light. The bars are among some of Frank’s strongest, particularly in the tongue-twisting and name-checking department:”So gon and prove nothing and hope that it don’t stick / Stop living on the Innanet you ain’t like Vic / Gadd Mic Vic Vicious onna Mic roll a swish and wish.” A further testament to the young Chicago talent’s many abilities: he’s responsible for the album artwork too. Enjoy “Walnut Tableture” below.
