How did you discover Aes?
I used to download random tracks off Limewire to listen to in WMP. When I was 9 or 10 I saw "I'll Be OK (feat. Slug)" and liked the name Aesop Rock so downloaded it.
It wasn't what I was expecting at all, I thought it would be rock. I hadn't heard anything like it before. I knew of a few rap and hip hop artists from radio and previous downloads but I felt this was next level. It was like the world opened up for me.
I downloaded the rest of his discography at the time (I've since bought them all so im not complete pirate scum) and fell in love. Downloaded a DOOM track a few weeks later and that was another wormhole I'm glad to have fallen into.
I'm 32 now and he still amazes me. So thankful that track popped up randomly.
