Um dos sites de referencia para mim, no que toca a musica é o pitchfork.com, muito completo e sempre muito independente. Gostam, tal como eu de fazer listas dos melhores disto e daquilo. Amanha ira revelar as ultimas 20 musicas de um top de 500 que são a escolha do staff para as melhores dos ultimos dez anos(2000-2009). No numero 27, ja revelado, encontram-se os meus queridos Clipse, e este é o (quanto a mim excelente) texto que 'ilustra' a musica, que tal como as outras pode ser ouvida no site, que vale a pena visitar :
'It's one of the great triumphs of counterintuitive pop thinking that the 21st century's definitive hip-hop yayo-chic anthem sounds so sparse. It could be because Pusha T and Malice put themselves on the supply end of the chain rather than the blown-out, hubris-loaded demand that fuels traditional coked-out musical excess. Besides, they're more concerned with milking charisma out of a profession whose afterthought clients, for all we know, could be anyone from day traders to destitute single mothers. It's all strictly business anyhow, fodder for some ingeniously cold wordplay ("I move 'caine like a cripple") and visions of Benz wagons and Gucci Chuck Taylors. That the Neptunes set it to a beat that sounds like car-door slams rearranged into a minimalist, clap-accented drumline only makes it easier to feel complicit in their trade, and if it wasn't so damned nod-provoking one might start asking some troubling questions about why we're bobbing our heads to coke rap in the first place.' --Nate Patrin
