Dom Kennedy - Addicted to the Underground (Discussion Thread)

Not to sound morbid, but I listen to Dom the way I listen to someone’s posthumous unreleased music

 

[Droopy]

it's ok....what happened to dom man he was one of the ONES
like he got bored with the game.

 

[CarltonJunior]

This isn't as bad as some of y'all saying, but Dom has no energy behind his bars anymore. I don't know whose in his circle who hasn't told him that but that's all he's missing.

That monotonous tone of voice is what's throwing people off.

 

[AMcV'88]

first joint gave me false hope.
how he waste that Oasis beat like that man ?

that said, its about as enjoyable Dom tape you'll get post Get Home Safely mainly because the production front to back.

Morbid? Probably.

Accurate? Definitely.

 

[blizzard man]

checking this now

the production sounds solid

but something still sounds off about dom

lyrically its straight, but the delivery is just lacking something, its just slightly off

i cant call it, but ima finish out this project

whatever dom ot goin on (if anything) i hope he can make it past it

or figure out how to adapt and update his flow as needed

overall tho, i dont have no issues with it, other than just that slight twinge that gets me cuz he sounds slightly diff

honestly it could be as simple as getting a different engineer to mix it down

 

[ManBearPig]

playing it now

 

[blizzard man]

this joint made me go back and play 'By Dom Kennedy'

so far its not as bad as i remember, and he still sounds like the energy is there

but i'm hesitant to re-spin LA is not for sale

i even been goin back thru to check interviews and release dates and shyt to see if dom disappeared from general view for a good period of time, but it doesn't look like he has

i feel like maybe he just lost a step naturally with the flow somehow, maybe its like anything else, if you dont sharpen the iron continuously, it becomes dull

and i dont see dom like doing 40-50 songs per album and then keeping the best 10

but who knows

 

[EASTATLJERU]

Why tf is this only on soundcloud?
