Chiddy Bang

Chiddy Bang is probably within the future of rap. It's a group of two people, Chiddy (rapper) and Xaphoon (beat maker) They could be considered Hip Pop in a lot of ways, but I think in the future Chiddy's rhyming skills will get better. Right now he tends to go off topic in his songs and say a bunch of shit that doesn't even go with the title. But none of the less he comes up with some crazy analogies and similes that are genius.

The more underated beat maker Xaphoon is the one with perfect skills in his department. Rediculous beats. Better than any I here. If I were to pick one person to make my beats it would be Xaphoon. It's a shame he doesn't exactly get the credit he deserves. When I first heard them I thought it was just one person named Chiddy Bang. He is a genius on the beats. I think he could go off by himself and become a top rated techno DJ.

Chiddy Bang is more of a mix tape group considering that they only have 2 albums on iTunes, one with only 6 songs. And all the songs on their albums are on their mixtapes first. If you want a good listen for them, either listen to "Air Swell" or "Peanut Butter and Swelly" (my favorite)

I like Chiddy Bang because even though it has a lot of elements of Pop in it, it has some great sounds that make you feel different. Really good to listen to if you want to listen to something fun.

Their most famous song is one where they took a sample from MGMT's "Kids" and remixed the beat making "Opposite of Adults"
My favorite song by them is either "Cameras" (they took a sample from Matt & Kim) or "Talking To Myself"
