CunninLynguists - 3 tracks that hooked me recently

[chiasmus]

I don't know how many people have heard of these guys...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CunninLynguists

I searched on this forum and there wasn't too much written about them. I only first heard a bit of their stuff fairly recently, and boy are they talented. Some of the hooks and melodies on their tracks are amazing, this is mainly down to a dude called kno, who produces their albums. If you're a fan of Eminem, there's a high chance I reckon you'll like the sound of this group. I should shut up now and you should give them a listen, here's links to three of their tracks that really hooked me when I heard them recently...

'The Distance' feat Tonedeff (also very skilled, he usually has at least one collaboration on every CunninLynguists album) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3tZMkdYk2k&feature=PlayList&p=88A39054D2103883&index=15

'K.K.K.Y' This one has a wicked beat, it's a Southern anthem! Before listening to it, I would have had no interest in this type of culture at all - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npSFbmmKImo&feature=PlayList&p=88A39054D2103883&index=18

'Don't Leave' This one is deep, lyrics and beat are incredible - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmpc6vqUyO0&feature=PlayList&p=88A39054D2103883&index=16

If you like the sound of them, give some of their other tracks a listen, they've serious talent man...

And one final track - 'Linguistics' - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l26QXDO8XFY&feature=related This one's mainly for the beat. It will grab you from the opening 5 seconds, guaranteed.

Let me know what you think, and lastly, anyone who's heard of Fort Minor, don't you think they sound a lot like them too??
