Lil B - Choices and Flowers (2012)

After a lengthy hiatus, I’m back and so is Lil B. Hot on the heels of his last mixtape, Trapped in Basedworld, Lil B returns to his much missed new age, spoken-word territory and drops a digital album of ambient compositions and is preparing to release a mixtape which will reportedly consist of all Based Freestyles. Lil B once asked in a song if he was even a rapper anymore. That question remains to be unanswered. What is certain is that by sheer creative force and steadfast individualism he has superseded the genre’s boundaries with his own artistic vision. He’s colored outside the lines to the point where the lines have been obscured. Is he a rapper anymore? Does it even matter?
