The West Coast resurgence is not limited to LA and the Bay. Producer Lee Bannon, hailing from Sacramento has been grinding for a couple years now, working with a host of rappers including Curren$y, Sha Stimuli, Saigon Talib Kweli, and numerous others. He fancies himself a rapper as well, and while that facet of his game could use some work, his beats certainly bump.

As he readies for his upcoming original album BigToyBox2 in a coupel weeks, he’s dropped this new mixtape, appropriately titled Bannon For Dummies to get the unfamiliar introduced to his work. The work features 20 tracks from the period 2008 to 2010 and features a nice range of what he is capable of musically. Here it is for your listening pleasure. His beats don’t all sound alike, but he can use some work behind the mic. At the very least, he’s got enough guest stars to remedy that weakness for now. The entire tape is produced solely by Bannon.

Take a listen and get yourself hip to Bannon. Maybe you will hear something you connect with. 20 tracks is too long for me, but with that high a number and the skip button you’re sure to find some thing to connect with. Enjoy. Bannon For Dummies. I’m sure you’re smart enough not to take it personal.

Peace
