Sir Jarlsberg - All's Faire (feat Aesop Rock, Kimya Dawson, Blockhead, Lateef, Jon Gibson and ALL CHUMS)
I can't recall exactly when I discovered Sir Jarlsberg. I was most likely diving into a YouTube or Soundcloud rabbit hole for Aesop Rock material I had never heard before. I stumbled upon the Sir Jarlsberg - All's Faire video which had the subtext "THE MOST INSANE POSSE CUT IN ALL OF HISTORY!". I knew I had to immediately dive in.
All's Faire may indeed be one of the most insane posse cuts I have ever heard. Jarlsberg used to go by the name Jer Gibson when he was with the now defunct label Definitive Jux and transformed himself into Sir Jarlsberg which is a comedy rap group that raps about dragons, archery and the like.
I'm not sure what the most insane part about this song is, the song itself or the video. Either way enjoy and feel free to follow along with the hilarious lyrics on Rap Genius.
Have a great weekend.
