I was very scared to first listen to this album after botm because I thought MIKE would miss, but I was wrong. His most complete project to date here with not a single skip throughout the 24 tracks. The production is really soul touching and MIKE drops some of his best verses here.
don’t really understand the disrespect given to this project, I love the atmosphere it creates and although there are 1 or 2 skips, it’s a good listen.
very good debut album as 17 year old, there a few skips but apart from that the album is a good start.
top 3 MIKE fs, album is up there with tears of joy in terms of production, listening to this album was genuinely an enjoyable experience and concrete is MIKE’s most underrated song and beat imo.
this album and folder 3 are his best solely because he’s the only producer on it
some of the smoothest, most soulful beats I’ve heard in a min alongside some solid verses.
two soul-touching loops + two meditative verses from jdn. really makes you wonder the potential he’ll reach in a few years time
song reminds me of navy blue and jadasea, introspective lyricism and soulful production
