Hear Young Nigga's track, "Come Threw Looking Clean", over at Odd Future's website. His album is apparently called Expensive Pasta. The "new artist" sounds eerily like Tyler doing his best Lil B impression. Oh, Friday hijinx.

As reported back in April, L.A. rap crew Odd Future have started their own eponymous record label under the operations of RED Distribution/Sony. The label was initially positioned as a means through which the members of the group would release their own music. But today they've announced that they're welcoming a new rapper named Young Nigga to the imprint.

From an official statement:

While our original intent was not to sign anyone to the label we simply could not pass up the opportunity to sign somebody this talented. Young Nigga embodies the DIY ethic and persona of Odd Future along with a commercial appeal that transcends demographics.

i thought this was going to be an onion article

young nigga is probably the greatest rap name in history

either that or crunchy black

they should just use up every rap variation with nigga in it by now

big nigga
lil nigga

how come nobody has named himself after the movie boss nigger and gone by boss nigga
the first single could sample the song from the trailer

odd future is turning into no limit for hipsters

this is a joke track so that's not much of a comparison and its not like everything on no limit was bad

would probably be the the best collab ever

produced by boss nigga

my very first tape label was called "boss nigger". no joke. it lasted about 3 months before i realized i really needed to change the name (coinciding with needing to start a blog about it).

that be SKELETON FINGA ON THA TRIGGA

sean do you wanna start the real life Primetime

we should make this happen

also i thought this dude was just one of tyler's personas

i don't know shit about these guys but that part is obvious to me even

Yeah same here. rateyourmusic.com seems to have this guy listed as an alter ego of Tyler the Creator.

i'm considering the amount of merch and albums they crank out with obscenely low production value

i've heard of that i think they callit DIY

there's a difference between DIY aestetic and low production value and it's about having good taste

there should be but there isn't. why NOT release a song or an album if that only means burning 50 cdrs or whatever? the cons of DIY have always been (and always will be) a flood of releases with "low" production value. quality control isn't as much of an issue when you're doing a run of 25 cassette tapes not 25,000 LPs.

just because they aren't "properly funded" releases doesn't mean they can't or shouldn't exist as documents in time. in more cases than not - these documents fill in the gaps between properly released albums.

why am i having this conversation with you of all people?

tyler released an album in 2009 and an album in 2011
mellowhype put one out in 2010 that a label released in 2011
earl in 2010
i can't keep up with all the members because i generally don't care enough after them but all told theyve really only released one album a piece and a group mixtape and they plan on releasing a group album next year
how is this cranking out albums at some ridiculous pace with "obscenely low production value"
maybe their production values seem low because, you know, until this year they were unsigned teenagers making beats at home

i don't even like them enough to be getting into this

yep
