Chiddy Bang’s “The Swelly Express” Mixtape (download)

text: Colin McLaughlin

In a few days, one of our writers is going to tell you to buy this, but since it’s a mixtape you don’t have to, I’ll just give you the link.  I’m talking about Chiddy Bang’s The Swelly Express and it’s really good. Need more? How about it’s accessible, they have a song with Passion Pit, Black Thought’s on it, they rock a variation on MGMT’s “Kids” beat… c’mon, just trust me and click right HERE. And if you don’t like it, remember that free is a great price and the least risky.

    I had to. You showed me the goodness that is this mixtape. And just when i thought i had my top ten hip hop list under control, this gets thrown at me. Love the Sufjan Stevens “Chicago” usage on the last song too!

    with this and tor’s mashup, perhaps 2009 is the year that sufjan finds his true calling: hip-hop producer.

    this is the best hiphop group ive ever heard.

    money mark: do you like them better than other groups like Outkast, Clipse, UGK, EPMD, (insert other classic group here)? If so, what is it that makes them the best?

    How can you complain about free? It also helps that the music is good too. I really like track #10.

    Hi Colin,
    I could not get to the download link, it’s not active. Couldn’t listen from this page too. Do you have any other links where I can listen the tracks from?

“Mindkilla” is awesome. I’ve got this music video last week and really impressed through watching every performance particularly “Glass Jar”. Thanks dude. :)
