If you have ever walked into RSWD and paid close attention the music that is playing you will notice that there is a wide range in genres that we support. From the RSWD greats like The Smiths and Kurupt to the newcomers such as Kid CuDi and the The Virgins. Then there are artist are staples in our daily rotation. Journey, Kanye, Al Green, Tokyo Police Club (the latest to be added to the routine) and Devin the Dude.
Devin, if you are not familiar, has been held as an underground artist for a while now but is internationally known. Since his self titled debut in 1998 (a cover which may still be the best CD cover ever) he has blessed marijuana heads across the globe with the finest melodic atmospherics while flying high. Songs like "Lacville 79", and "Doobie Ashtray" speak volumes to the genuine pothead. Then there are those like "Boo Boo' n", "Cutcha Up", and She Used to be" that speak to even the everyday family man. He even does song for his fellow peers in songs like "What A Job". Listening to a Devin the Dude CD can take you places, it helps you tune out everyday worries, he is the mans man subconscious.
Today I give the cover of his newest piece of work, Landing Gear, which promises to be excellent in taste based off his track record alone. Salute the greats.
Peace
