If you're looking to sci-fi material for your next rap album, you could probably do worse than Firefly. Sure, Star Wars may be more famous, but the rebels in Firefly are actual bad ass smugglers rather than a princess and a farm boy with a weird genetic disorder. Basically, everybody in Firefly is Han Solo. And you know what's more awesome than Han? A ship full of Hans.
Apparently, the "internet's foremost comic book rapper" Adam Warrock agrees with me, because his recently release "Browncoats" mixtape is all about the Joss Whedon sci-fi western. The entire album is written about Firefly and all the samples are taken from either the show or the movie it spawned, Serenity. I wouldn't say Warrock is the best rapper I've ever head, but he's easily the best Firefly rapper I've ever heard. Download the mixtape here or watch the video below to take a listen for yourself!
