And for you clowns that want to listen and judge it based on a quick playthrough, YOUR POURING JELLY ON YOURSELF!

Ab soul is a very deep lyricist and his lyrics are usually chock full of double and triple entendres. This shyt is like a fine wine. It needs time to marinate.

I fukks with Ab HEAVY but he ain't THAT deep, honestly he raps about a lot of things where he has no full understanding in.

"I don't be in no pain, I just like how it feels/I close my eyes and follow beetles in strawberry fields/munchy munchies Welch's fruit snakes and Ms. Fields/Wicked as Aleister Crowley you nikkas know the deal!" - Just Have Fun

But I overstand his perspective. But at the end of the day he is heavily in being "dualistic." You can't be Wisdom Body but use Aleister Crowley to describe how you feel when on drugs, let a lone do drugs of such that would compare to Crowley. And as far as I know Crowley fukked himself into bliss heavier than taking drugs. It is what it is.

So..
After the first listen, "Hunnid Stax","Dub Sac","Twact","Closure" and "Sapiosexual" are the songs dangerously close to bushes status.
I'll need a few more spins before I formulate my final opinion, but so far this is a clear step back from Control System. I came in with low expectations and it seems those preconceptions were valid. Lets see how I feel in a few weeks..
