Born-and-bred Queens rapper Big Baby Gandhi is one of the most promising dudes in Himanshu Suri's Greedhead wheelhouse. His penchant for gruffness is displayed on "Blue Magic" from his upcoming tape, NO1 2 LOOK UP 2. Gandhi's first release Big Fucking Baby was an entirely self-produced effort and pretty lo-fi, but this track is much more polished. Das Racist appear as guests, Kool A.D. interpolating Boogie Down Productions' "Criminal Minded," Heems referencing Kanye West's "Two Words". Gandhi gets deep into his verse, half-yelping the last few bars. To get a real feel for his charisma, see Gandhi live—New York can check him out opening for Main Attrakionz at Glasslands in Brooklyn this Sunday, March 4th. NO1 2 LOOK UP 2 (tracklist below) is out on March 30th.
