One of our favorite cool-n-smooth local rap acts is the Animate Objects. Wanna get beyond Common and Kanye? The Animate Objects' latest EP is available for a free download on the group's Web site. Like what hear? There's more — a full-length album, "Riding in Fast Cars With Your Momma," is available on iTunes, plus the boys will be live at 5 p.m. today on the New Music Binge show (listen at fearlessradio.com).
Not all rappers are Animate Objects
