Diamond District - Something For Y'all (Prod. by Kev Brown)
"Something For Y'all" showcases emcees Oddisee, X.O. and yU trading verses, rapping to their audience, and trying to upstage each other. The track has a distinctively old school vibe. This old school spirit is one of the attributes that has made Diamond District's debut so hotly anticipated. While you won't find any Kangols in the vicinity of Diamond District (though Oddisee has been seen recently sporting a cardigan onstage), the track boasts a heaping serving of formative hip-hop flavor, and soul food. "Undefeated on my feet / when I'm dishing out defeat / like a plate of soul food with swine meat from Texas."
Unlike many boastful choruses, Diamond District are absolutely right when they rap together "We got something for y'all / the hardcore / something people been waiting for such a long time... we're down for the cause." That cause- real hip-hop- has been awaiting torchbearers as deserving as Diamond District for quite a while.
