"Y'all sound like old Jay; y'all sound like old Nas/ Y'all sound like Coldplay; y'all sound like Oprah/ Me, I sound so dope, brah. Money out the chocha/ Bet you wish you was hot, don't ya[?]"
Ahh, what would Hip-Hop be without self-aggrandizing punchlines? Those cited come from Greedhead Entertainment artist, Big Baby Gandhi, who appeared on my radar when Diplo's label, Mad Decent, released his first mixtape: Big Fucking Baby. Overall, it was an average mix of dubious production quality, but the opening track, "Gandhi Mandhi Mandhi," (on which he rhymes to a sample with no beat that ends in a smooth-as-hell horn solo) was too good to be ignored.
Now, Big Baby Gandhi returns to prove he's no mediocre MC with a second mixtape, NO1 2 LOOK UP 2, and as many ego-boosting lyrics as there are stars. Gleaning contributions from other producers on this joint (BBG produced every track on Big Fucking Baby) could account for the noticeably tighter lyrics. ... And I don't mean to say that the beats (especially Gandhi's own) don't shine in their own respect, but rather that this effort is so on point I now anticipate a proper album release from Big Baby Gandhi.

... But first check out the track "Boogie Nights":
