I regret writing this now, because I'm out of my BossMan Dlow phase: it started when this album came out and slowly died when Dlow published some uninteresting (imo) songs in 2025. The tracks in this album actually make you feel like a successful person, even if (like me) you're broke af 😂; Dlow's rapping is sometimes funny, with brief puns here and there, and other times vigorous, but the songs overall don't have much to offer.
The beats are pretty basic and don't ... read more

Rag'n'Bone man was, in my opinion, the perfect choice for the chorus: his powerful voice compliments well the melancholic and thoughtful instrumental.
Danger Mouse and Black Thought have put out another masterpiece which hints at a sequel to the acclaimed "Cheat Codes", whose track "Aquamarine" blew my mind, as I was still new to hip-hop at the time.
Perfection in every sense.

A throwback to the 2000s, while still sounding fresh and up-to-date.

Finalmente l'inno perfetto per noi fuorisede 🎉

Hope they get more and more popular in the future, they absolutely deserve it. Enjoyed the album until the last second. I like its theme which reminds of the French Ancien Régime.
Favourite songs: "Shy Girl", "Freaks".

"The Romantic" makes a great album for the summer, which is coming in a few months, even if some of the tracks are pretty basic. Bruno's iconic voice and the refined production make it a good listen, which I overall recommend.
Favourite song: "I Just Might".
