Ab-Soul Drops 16 Bars On 'The Boombox' + Interview

Ab-Soul comes through with some hazy raps for the latest installment of The Boombox's '16 Bars' series. The Black Lip Pastor makes quick business out of excavating the anthemic blapper provided and runs through some of his more subdued verbal treatments, shouting out Chicago and Mac Millerin the process. After all is said and done, Ab dash sits down and waxes on the first bars he ever wrote, chalking one up toTwista's "Emotions" for providing the bones to those early lines. He goes on to describe his process and shoot down the notion of there being some formula to good lyricism. We're on board. Ab-Soul's sophomore record These Days is out now and can be copped via iTunes today. Peep Ab-Soul's '16 Bars' session below.
