Seen that a few years back on a festival after If There's A Hell Below dropped, one of the best hiphop shows I ever seen. Enjoy fam.Gonna see him in concert next week with the Nat Turner band. Relate with live instruments is gonna be
Also posting to remind myself to listen to this, I'm on a holiday and between sightseeing and being with my girl I don't really have the time to listen to a full album. Also I feel like Black Milk projects don't really mesh with the holiday vibe, just because while dope it's not 'easy' music. I really gotta get in the vibe of his albums to enjoy them, that being said I know this is gonna be fire.

I'm surprised no one has spoken on how BM's lyrical content has grown over the years. On his first three projects, he was on a whole different vibe - fukking bytches, poppin bottles, etc.
Now he's addressed everything from inner city struggles, politics and relationship/trust issues on the last few albums

This. I said it somewhere recently but dude went from a producer/rapper that ended up becoming one of the most interesting and most well rounded artists in the game. He was basically a lower-level version of Dilla, both in production style and in rhyme style. I don't mean that as a diss. I still love his old material too. But Out of all the producer-rappers that popped up in the mid 00's, especially the ones that had a lot of Dilla influence, I did NOT expect Black Milk to transform into what he's become.
One of the most self-contained artists in the game and has truly leveled up to heights I never would've imagined.

Tronic definitely occupies a special place with me.

before the gut reaction to what I'm about to say (especially brehs like @iamduval that don't like Tronic) but it really reminds me of Dilla's Ruff Draft EP. Ruff Draf is one of my favorite EPs of all time, in any genre. I'm not at all saying Tronic is as good as Ruff Draft, but when Ruff Draft was kind of my first real exposure to Dilla, and some of that music sounded like no hip-hop I'd heard before (especially The Dough, Nothing Like This, and Reckless Driving).Tronic sort of had a similar effect on me where I hadn't heard hip-hop that sounded like that before. Especially after I was expecting something more like Popular Demand again. So the whole sound of Tronic really bugged me out and I thought he steped his pen game and flow up a lot on there. Not to mention the dope features from Royce, Sean P (RIP), and Monch.
Whether you prefer his music pre-Tronic or post-Tronic, it can't be denied that it stands as a landmark in his career and to me it's a very, very dope project.
