While there's a good amount of samples in where they just use the MOST ARBITRARY SAMPLE and attempt to make it work with their goofball ass breakbeat to a midpoint or little avail, the mixing on all of the songs are undeniably great. A good amount of the samples synergize with the beats, and some of them even synergize to the point where the emotion displayed fits perfectly within the song.

Although I am NOT putting this shit on the aux.

Drop the fucking album on DSP AND STOP PLAYING RECORD CONTROL DOWNTOWN RECORDS.

This album is amazing through and through. With really tight production and Mos Def being just as lyrical as he was back in the 90s. Although I have some gripes with the mixing choices on a few songs, this is a great album and definitely a standout amongst his solo catalogue.

I'm never spiritually recovering from this.

11.

I am never emotionally recovering from this.

BITCH YOU A SQUARE YOU ROBLOX 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️

Slide, Promotion, River, 530, and Forever Rolling are stand-outs and are ranging from really good to great.

the mixing on some of these songs are absolutely mediocre and a terrible excuse for somebody of his stature to have.

AI usage is literally depressing bruh, it's sad to see one of my favorite artists turning out like this dawg..

Not a very pleasing first listen.

Fire production with Ty carrying the fucking song.

local british band gets political. ends up making a groovy as fuck album with some really great songs.

if eating meat pisses off morrissey though im gonna enjoy tonights taco bell 10x more.

that's a pretty cool fish vince, and this is a pretty cool album.

First half was already great enough but MAN that second half.. holy shit.

DPAOTB is actually fucking peak bro holy shit. The guitar work throughout the entire album was done amazingly, hats off to Peggy for once again dropping an amazing album to self diagnose myself with being mentally disabled to.

Edit: 91 >> 97
I may be just be slightly neurodivergent.

I am once reminded again that the british are exceptional at rock and that this band & the lead singer in specific leaves me in shambles knowing the album is actually great with a dogass human being

buddy is not a charming man but this song sure is.

Exceptional album from Lupe. Some of these songs haven't been able to get out of my head recently. Literally never heard an album from this guy before but this is a great start so far. The lyricism is great and so is the flow & melody on all of these songs. The Nujabes influence in these beats are really noticeable as well.

This is nigh perfection in my personal opinion. The vocal ability displayed in this album is absolutely outrageous, this dude literally dropped an album of this caliber and got snuffed out too soon. Long live Jeff Buckley, and rest in peace.

Literally depression at its rawest form.

This album has convinced me that I am schizophrenic.

Iconic album. ZERO misses. Two Words is my favorite on here.

It's okay. A lot of mid songs but there's certainly enjoyable ones. Mixing is just ass especially evident on KING and CARNIVAL, that's all.

Fuck you, Kanye Omari West.

This album in MY HUMBLEST OPINION has no skips and its an actual fucking tragedy it got bagged for JIK. Could've been generational but "Jesus did the laundry" 💔....

I'm definitely getting fucking banned from the aux with this one.

This shit is straight banging tho...
