Homeboy Sandman

Anjelitu

    Produced by and featuring Aesop Rock. “I wrote half of these songs when my energy was either headed in the wrong direction or already there. I wrote the other half while my energy was moving in a direction I’m more excited about, that I find to be more enriching. They’re all still my songs though. My mother, and lots of my relatives, used to call me “Angelito.” Little Angel. The taijitu is the symbol for yin and yang. Opposites that make a whole. Given the dualistic/duelistic nature of the songs on the record, put it all together and what do you get, Anjelitu.” - Homeboy Sandman

    'Anjelitu' sees hip-hop legend Aesop Rock produce and MC to great effect, tempering Homeboy Sandman's sometimes frenetic wordplay into a brilliant juxtaposition of energy and groove. Pieces like 'FYI' are one of the more soul-led examples of Sandman's production, while the whacked out proto funk of 'No Beef' erfectly displays his ability to get super weird. It's a testament to the skills of both Sandman and Aesop Rock that these pieces can come from such a polar selection of pieces and maintain their composure and flow.
