This is one of the most underrated albums of all time. One of my all-time favorites; I rarely see anyone discussing this project. As such, I wanted to give it the attention I believe it deserves. This album is about the perfect monotony in life. The quiet, beautiful moments. Walking outside on a warm spring day as the trees have flowered. Feeling the brisk breeze as the bright sun shines down. Every aspect of life is another building block. Waking up every day to work things out, for better or ... read more

Enough of forcing myself to say negative things; the quality on this album is phenomenal. Energy is great throughout, and it takes time to feel the quiet moments while bringing the power when it’s needed. It’s a fierce display of musical capacity and a staunch criticism of today’s society, ... read more
Fun rap project, didn’t blow my mind. Probably won’t be revisiting any time soon, but I’d consider some of these songs as playlist worthy.
