I've always loved odd time signatures, since starting out playing the drums when I was 12 years old.
Ten years ago, very few rappers were even attempting 3/4 rhymes (usually more like 6/8), let alone anything as weird as 5/4 or 7/8. To this day, although three and six have become less exotic, still no-one does the crazy stuff. People don't even make beats on that tip unless they're DJ Shadow, and even DJ Shadow's not DJ Shadow anymore.
I mention ten years ago because that's when I made this song - "Cinqo de Mayo" - chopping samples into a 5/4 beat and doing my damnedest to rhyme smoothly over it. How's my driving? Let me know!
