Songs about potheads always get me listening for the same reason songs about gangstas do: because I ain’t one. And coming from somewhere near Oxnard, California (word to anyone who’s never been there: the name don’t sound street because the city ain’t), I’m betting Quas, the heliumized alter-ego of Madlib, isn’t a gangsta either. But the man can freak a funky beat like the shit was in a blender set to Negativland. Don’t worry if you don’t smoke the doob — Quasimoto’s doing enough for all of us.
Sounds and has the general flow of MC Frontalot. But in my opinion, Frontalot has a little more polish.
Quas, one of the most diverse MC's there is next to Del Tha Funkee Homosapien (Deltron 3030).
Formed by The Lootpack MC Madlib while on a nasty Mushroom trip this sinister alter ego has gotten a firm grip on the underground hiphop scene and has got my respect.
