I'm Up ( The Drug Song ) from Aris Jerome on Vimeo.
That's right partner, this blog ain't dead.
Nation friend Mister Wheeler hit me off with the links to these new Roach Gigz videos, directed by Aris Jerome, who seems to be keeping busy these days. Though he was just trying to be a nice guy, he has really thrown a fucking wrench into my understanding that Lil 4-Tay is, in fact, female, despite all evidence to the contrary. I was willing to believe it not really having seen him/her all that much, but the above video for "I'm Up" with Roach Gigz really suggests that Lil 4-Tay is a dude. Barring some sort of stunt double situation (unlikely), I really have to say Lil 4-Tay sounds and looks like a dude. He/She also raps about "pussy and pills" and how there's no "pussies around here". The latter statement, taken literally, would suggest he is in fact a he.
The point is ultimately somewhat irrelevant but I felt, for the first time in about a month, like I should dust off the old blogger account and commit some words to internet. The blog isn't dead; I'm busy. It's a nice exercise to post short things like this and realize what a small time commitment blogging about rap truly is in my life. I'm sure I waste more time on Twitter. How sad. So, expect to see this blog continue to bring you the best and worst of Bay Area rap. So long as I'm not too busy.
Below is the video for "My Bitch Look Better". Props to Aris and Mr. Gigz for hardly leaving Fillmore for either video shoot.

my first thought aswell when i saw lil 4tay was in a video was of course to fast forward to his/her verse and take a good look.. it really seams it's a dude..
One of the kids I work with went to middle school with rappin' 4 tay's son. I don't know if it's the same person, or how many kids big tay got, but I would assume she was talking about this one. Maybe I'll ask him next time I see him around the neighborhood.
anyone else think that in a lot of jerome's videos (roach gigz videos aside) there's a token shot of one white boy?
see: "i said" and :it's just the mob"

Watch this documentary. It will confuse you further. I still got money on Lil 4-Tay being a chick.
Didn't 4Tay Sr let his kids rap on some of his records? I sort of remember hearing his daughter when she was a kid on some album... Around the time e40 let his son rap on The Hall of Game.. This could be a clue.

Listen to Ugh we kick em out
4tays verse has a line that says "son of a player"
Done. Its a he.

Lil 4-Tay could be a trans guy, as in a biological woman who identifies as male.
You people are fuckin retarted. Look at dudes myspace. Hes obviously a fuckin guy.
Wheres that Drought Season 2?
anyone got mp3s for these songs?
I just got confirmation that Lil-4-Tay is a biological girl. Here in SF, cross identification is very open. This generation of teens have a pretty enlightened view on gender identification. From working with the group I got now, I'm not surprised at all.
Way to keep the blog updated bro!
anthony - i think both of these mp3's were posted on digitaldripped.com
good luck!
Lil 4tay is a girl! even roach gigz says it in this interview
