Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous (Big L, 1995)
Enjoyable snack-like satisfaction, but nothing inspirational. Big L's a lot different than I expected. I love the brief periods he double-times, wish we got to hear more of that. I found the hardcore crime stuff a lot more intriguing than the battle rap side of it. Also Jay-Z has a cameo which gives me all the more respect for Reasonable Doubt, it's incredible that this was just a year before.
Choice cuts: All Black, Da Graveyard, Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous
Akran (Richard Myers, 1969)
Intermittently annoying in that unique way experimental films seem to have a monopoly on and brilliant. Keep it a hundred, kind of a slog for me too.
