Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut release from the Los Angeles underground mainstay immediately established his notoriously complex, hyper-speed vocal delivery. 'Memoirs of the Elephant Man' brilliantly matches Busdriver's manic, highly humorous, and technically dizzying flows with deeply eccentric, jazz-inflected experimental hip-hop production.
