Shawn Chrystopher Is 'Not Really Here' But Sam Sparro Is

 

shawn_sam.jpgThose of you who peeped my Top 10 Picks of 2008 know that I stan a bit hard for some Sam Sparro. While I will give love to whoever produced this track for the synth-laden groove (the high-hat was a nice touch by the way), Shawn Chrystopher's rhymes were a bit lacking. That may be the point of "Not Really Here" though. Taking its title from the refrain of "Black & Gold," the original track on its own is pretty hard-hitting and succinct, while its spawn has a slower tempo that lends itself to feeling a bit more spacious and atmospheric. Make up your own mind below.

OH MY GOD! What did that guy do that song? Nay verily!

Nice track, wack MC though. Big Pooh would have laced this joint.
