Here's a dirty little secret: The best stuff Das Racist has ever done has never gone on sale.
With all due respect to 2011's Relax, Heems, Kool AD and Dap have been at their best on mixtapes or away from the group. Heems, the group's entrepreneurial figurehead, has consistently struck gold with material released through his blog. In "Womyn" and "Computers," he's well-intentioned and bumbling; in "Swate," he's gravelly and nimble; in "I Want It Bad," he pulls off a great impression of the late Heavy D. Yet all the while he's charismatic, smart, self-aware and beguilingly tongue-in-cheek. --Charlie Kaplan
