didn't i - darondo (slowed)

Didn't I

Originating from San Francisco and born in 1946, Darondo performed throughout the 1970’s, his music still held in high regard today from lovers of the soul genre.

Releasing just three singles in the early 70’s, Darondo mixed low-rider soul with blues and R&B with a sound described by the man himself as, “a little bit of everything, there’s a little jazz and a little soul, I got Latin flavour in me so there’s some Latin in it too”. 

With his career in full motion Darondo had begun opening shows for the likes of James Brown, but after the release of just three 45’s he decided to stop recording.  According to his biography on the funk and rare groove label Ubiquity records, Darondo claimed his reasons for this “..was mostly me, I was just having a good time with a real good hobby, it wasn’t about money but about having fun. Something I just liked to do. Maybe your dream is to be a James Brown or Frank Sinatra but those were just mostly dreams to me.” 

It’s a crying shame that Darondo gave up recording so early on in what promised to be a fruitful career, but what he did release is a credit to this rare artist.  His classic sound has more recently received well deserved attention thanks to Radio 1’s Gilles Peterson playing his 1973 single, “Didn’t I” on his show, (a fantastic track which was also featured in Breaking Bad!).  Today’s song was released in 1972 and is titled ‘The Wolf’, listen above.

!!! PREVIEW !!! Nothing To Me Mix

"sample" - Darondo - Didnt I
Fear of the soul, mind control.
Poppin pills just to see where your mind can go.
When im eating cereal, is that high or low.
Soprano got me with the honey combs.
Im dated, but not in the sence that I made it.
No one wants a no one who cant take it.
Who hates it, the facts of life cant change it.
Hes a favorite, to no one that dont exists.
He persist, but with a fake smile, behind mist.
Try out a scheme, with a fever dream, with no team.
Little steam, as if you thought youd be seen.
Whats this thing, whats the point in a fling.
Rap seems a pocket just to take it out of.
My mind thats trapped inside of, a sack of slop,
not what you thought of, off the cuff, its 
monstorous whats made of shtfdfsd

My mind thats trapped inside of, a sack of slop,
not what you thought of, off the cuff, its 
monstorous whats made of the stuff.
Whats between, those ears, nothing it seems.
A void in cream, left out to rot, curdled fiend.
He means well, bent on hell, cant take out the smell.
The stains, ingrained, bring pain when youre out the shell.
What i fell? Ive always been down the well.
No rings, not even on the finger, nothing on the pinger.
Not even a faint whisper on the tip, fat lip, past 
the far side. Near sided thats why you cant hide.
and whats the vibe? whats the feeling, whats right.
Trap it, cook it, serve it and then slide.
Wheres the end though, a benzo or a bullet hole? end permanento
