With Danny Brown’s much anticipated debut album Old expected to drop any time this year, he visited Tim Westwood’s BBC Radio 1 show earlier today and give him the first listen of his latest joint “Kush Coma” which previously dropped earlier this year sans A$AP Rocky.

Bam Bam crashed Danny’s London show at Scala, much to the delight of the crowd (I dunno about the security guy, though…) to perform “Strictly 4 My Jeeps” from his recently-released Saaab Stories.
During my daily-travels around the internet, I came across an open letter DJ A-Trak penned for HuffingtonPost that revolves around hip hop’s current obsession with drug usage. While he doesn’t partake himself, A-Trak has worked with artists who glorify their existence (Juicy J, Danny Brown, etc) and offers up a fantastic discussion-opening piece that I suggest everyone that visits the site digests.
I don’t know anything about drugs. Never tried them. Yet as I write this, I am trying to sign a group with a song called “Bath Salts” and an album titled “D.R.U.G.S.”. Danny Brown, my record label’s marquee artist, calls himself the Adderall Admiral, openly does interviews high on Molly and raps, “it’s a miracle I’m living.” I happen to think he is one of the most enthralling artists out. How do I reconcile my respect for Danny and the fact that so many of his wildly creative and entertaining songs revolve around drug usage?
