Listen to Kendrick Lamar Freestyle over TNGHT’s “Higher Ground” and some assorted Flying Lotus News

Kendrick Freestyles over a TNGHT beat….Captain Murphy raps over a TNGHT beat….Captain Murphy is Flying Lotus. What the… That’s it! Einhorn is Finkle! Finkle is Einhorn! Einhorn is a man!

I’ve been looking for an excuse to put some TNGHT stuff up. Today Kendrick Lamar gave me one with a short freestyle over their “Higher Ground” Monster, and I do mean Monster of a beat, but we’ll get to that later. Earlier this year Kendrick Lamar released Good Kid, m.A.A.d City and its being touted as one of the best rap albums of the year — if not ever. With this short freestyle clip, and this particular freestyle isn’t even that good for Kendrick, but it shows why he’s got so much hype – It’s his flow control, his next level word choices, and his ability to keep pace — or set his own pace to any beat…the kid is that good.

Now on to some TNGHT stuff, as I said before “Higher Ground” is a trap monster, but so is everything on their self titled EP. Dirty bass, and some clean snares and claps…ohhh sooo trap. Here’s a few select songs to fuck with.

Bonus: Captain Murphy (revealed as Flying Lotus lastnight in LA) on Bugg’n’. DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE CAPTAIN MURPHY DELUXE MIXTAPE HERE!! FlyLo appropriately named the mixtape Duality.
