Company Flow - Little Johnny From The Hospitul (1999)
Little Johnny from the Hospitul is Company Flow's second album, which was released in 1999, soon after the group disbanded.
Little Johnny From the Hospitul is an instrumental album and a dark affair with slowish textured beats. These aren't your average hip-hop beats, with basic drum loops and DJ scratches thrown in; it's obvious that El-P and DJ Mr. Len spent considerable time constructing the songs. On "Suzy Pulled a Pistol on Henry," the kid from "Bad Touch Example" (on the Funcrusher Plus album) gets revenge on the person who molested her. Other standout songs on the album are "Gigapet Ephany," "Worker Ant Uprise," and the always addicting "Shadows Drown," which features the distant sounds of water to distorted voices to the sounds of electronic locusts.
