Madvillian's "Fancy Clown" Appreciation Thread (The-Coli Version)

[Aje]

For those unfamiliar:


I've loved this track since the album dropped. Unfortunately, I played the part of Viktor Vaughn in real life back in '06 so the song had even more meaning. I recall dating a chick who lived in the east village and found out she was f*cking some other dude. I listened to this song on repeat from 2nd Avenue and 5th Street to walking to the 9th Street PATH to Hoboken Terminal to taking the LIght Rail to my spot on Congress Street in Jersey City Heights. That's like an hour of travel right there.

only criticism: too short of a track.

Real rap. I love this fukking intro. So soulful. The outro too. "Her butt ain't big as mine anyway". LMAO That part always gets me.

Madlib is a genius
