Before cats start b!tching up again, DO understand that this album is supposed to have a nice, intimate lounge act feel. NO...it's not supposed to sound like Supreme Clientele. No...it's not supposed to sound like Ironman or Fishscale. Ghost last few albums have been collaborations/concept albums with live instrumentation. His last official SOLO, SOLO album was Wizard of Poetry and that album was dope and criminally underrated (mostly because Ghost tried to give fans some grown up music). More collabs are coming (Wu Block 2, 12 Reasons 2, possibly Doom Starks...). Just enjoy these projects and appreciate them for what they are, until his REAL solo drops (Supreme Clientele 2). What Ghost is going to do in 2015 is EPIC. Sit back and enjoy greatness and stop crying.

I heard this album, although I couldn't really pay great attention to it my initial thoughts were very much 12 reasons to die ..... live instrumentation driven, old school, cinematic themed. It sounded slow paced. Ghost sounded consistent with his previous 2 albums.

I can already imagine the coli backlash from the feedback of 12 reasons and 36 seasons on here.

Hopefully I'll get the opportunity to listen to it later where I can pay more attention.

Sounds like a video will drop at some point today.

Always got the drop on the projects I have high interest in. Props, Cali.

And yea, I see how the reception is going to go for this album already: The general music listening community (hip hop included) will love it and than there's going to be some dudes on here that's gonna hate it, and claim Ghost fell off, because it's not the Ghost album they want. Put money on it.

I don't understand all the hate for 12 Reasons to Die, but at the same time I think I know why people be hating on these live instrumentation/more "musical" albums. Its people downloading/streaming poor quality mp3 versions of the albums and listening to them on their iphones through stock apple earbuds and shyt. Real music with dynamics, image, and depth to it needs to be listened to in AT LEAST CD quality through good headphones or a good system, and through a source with a quality digital to analogue converter (DAC). Most laptops/tablets/cell phones/ipods have inferior digital to analogue conversion and require and external DAC to begin with, throw a poor quality version of the recording and shytty headphones/speakers on top of that and of course "real" music will sound like shyt. Beats made with FL Studio that are overly compressed to make them loud and consist of mostly computer generated electronic synths and bass lines can still sound similar to CD quality in the abovementioned scenario and wont suffer as much.

The thing is, I know there are people who love music on here and if they were to experience quality recordings through better listening methods they would absolutely notice the difference and start appreciating albums like 12 RTD, 8 Diagrams, A Better Tomorrow, 36 seasons etc. The problem is, much like myself only like a year ago, they just don't know any better :mjlol:

Sorry for coming off as an elitist..........:shaq:
