For more than a decade, the great underground rap veterans Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman have been getting together for a series of EPs called Lice<\/em>. Those guys bring out the absolute best in each other. When they get together, they always sound like they’re having fun without compromising the hyper-referential density of their styles. Whenever we hear about a new Lice<\/em> release, it’s a good day, which means today is a good day. <\/p>\n Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman released the first Lice<\/em> EP<\/a> in 2015, and they followed it with 2016’s Lice Two: Still Buggin’<\/a><\/em> and 2017’s Triple Fat Lice<\/a><\/em>. That means we haven’t gotten a new Lice<\/em> EP in a long time, though they did drop the beautiful one-off MF DOOM tribute “Ask Anyone<\/a>” in 2021 and the one-off 2022 single “Catfish<\/a>.” Also, Aesop produced Sandman’s 2021 EP Angelitu<\/em>, and it had a song called “Lice Team, Baby<\/a>.” I’m delighted to report that they’re back at full strength with the new EP Miami Lice: Season Four<\/em>. <\/p>\n Miami Lice: Season Four<\/em> has eight songs, which means it’s the longest Lice<\/em> EP. (They’re calling it an EP, but I say eight songs is long enough to count as an album. If Led Zeppelin IV<\/em> is an album, so is Lice IV<\/em>.) Aesop Rock produced the entire record, and he put a whole lot of lively, funky bounce into these tracks. I’m on my first listen right now, and I’m sure that I’ve missed about a million intricate lines while typing up this post, but I’m already having a blast. There’s one song that’s just them guessing about the secret ingredients that they put in burgers. This is just good music, and we should not take these two guys for granted.
