Finally got around to listening to it in one sitting. I ran the whole thing back 4x. I really enjoyed it and I think it’s gon be one of those albums I can play, on a whim, in ten years and still enjoy it. Dude 38 years old and mellowed out and the music reflects. When the “I’d die for this shyt like Elvis” line hit me and laughed irrationally hard lol.

This is dope one thing I REALLY like is that he's not doing the high pitch voice. Which I normally can't listen to on the regular and only in bursts. He's spitting on this jawn and the production is great too. I'm copping this for sure

To me this is the realization of all his potential. He released some frustrating projects through the years that had good material but were not quite there production wise or had annoying hooks etc. On this album you've got 11 thoughtful, funny songs with dope and creative production.

I'm gonna go back and reevaluate Atrocity Exhibition. I pretty much ignored it at the time but this has got me excited about Danny's music again.

I had to take a minute to sit with this. I liked it a lot. It took me a sec to catch onto where he was going with some of the joints but the Q-Tip moments are :wow:

Combat and Best Life are :blessed:

The title track sounds like some 'Kamaal The Abstract' era type jam and it wasn't one of Tip's :leon:

I fux with it.

New album is super str8. He def went bac to basics....this sounds like an updated version of The Hybrid:ehh:
Anyone expecting some crazy avant garde shyt can stik to Atrocity.

Im just happy theres No EDM/cac festival music here and he not doin the hi pitch voice much at all:blessed:

@hustlemania @Barnett114

Stikky this jawnt
I think this album is every bit as avant garde as Atrocity. The energy is different but like Atrocity the production is moving in a direction that I don't think will be appreciated for a while. Both album got some weird, ambitious ass beats

As far as the voice with this album I think Danny found a happy medium between his normal voice and the high pitch comedy voice. I think Dirty Laundry is a good example of what I'm saying

I remember bein wit Danny sum years back

And we both spoke about our kids x fam ,I could tell back then he was sayin up his rap persona and doin white lines

He hit a kouple bumps after but he was reflective even then
..I remember him sayin I need to take a break and just be dad ..was good to see him.prioritize that side of tings

Music x shows dont kome before his personal life
