Yeah, The Many faces of Oliver Heart is probably my favorite Eyedea album. He really comes into his own lyrically and production is excellent.
I think I heard a remix track Danger Mouse produced with MF Doom called "Somersault". It was ill beyond words. Here's the site, I heard it on the radio thingy.

Finally, I bought a MF Doom and a Madvillian shirt a few days ago from TheGiantPeach. I might post myself wearing one of them since this is the hip hop thread. 😉
I used to have a cool NWA shirt a couple of years back, it had a big road sign saying COMPTON on it with loads of bullets holes and lil pictures of Eazy and Dre on the front, and ''dont **** with this N.W.A.'' in red on the back, but I could never wear it out cos I'd be greated with shouts of ''git that off ya damn cracka!'' 🙁

I really like the Perceptionists album, Lif and Ak are a great team and complement each other well. They also choose topics that i find interesting and approach it from a down to earth point of view. Stand out tracks for me are "Black Dialogue", "Career finders"(funny as hell) and 5 o'clock. My one problem was the album was too short.

It said Public Enemy and had their logo with the world and a crosshair, and it said Fear Of A Black Planet in huge bold letters... on a skinny white homeless guy. I wanted to take a picture but I didn't wanna be rude.

i just d/led the Swollen Members album, and im not buying it. THe production might be great, but the lyrics are soo...like...mainstreamish. Moka Only is incredible.
look at these lyrics by manchild.
[Mad Child]
My motorcycle rings are flooded
I’m star studded
You mother****ers not going to be able to cut it
Listen *****, I'm a tuff act to follow
Suck my dick, and here's a nut sack to swallow
Wanna get personal, close and intimate
Listen kid I’m a whole different instrument
Mental I’m not sentimental
I’m intrakit, its impossible not to get into it
My intent to vent is not innocent
I’m guilty of being real filthy with these meniscent ways
It's time to finish ya faze
I’m proof that raw adrenalin and energy pays
