Durag Dynasty & ALC - 360 Waves (2013)

[TheDarceKnight]

yea, man.. with these bonus tracks.. this just took it up whole 'nother notch..

easily, my favorite release this year so far..

Man, 9th Wonder and them released GQ's album today, Death Threats and Love Notes.

He used to be a point guard for UNC (Quentin Thomas). This album is really good too. Not to derail this thread but dude can rap his ass off.

You can listen to all of it here:

Listened to this shyt like 2 times thru already. I'm not liking it the same way I didn't like russian roulette. only 1 song is DOPE. that's "bigger u are, the harder u fall". that song is SICK tho!

That's so truppy. i hated, hated the Durag leaks from last year/early 2013. i thought this album was going to suck. My friend that's a pretty well known producer loves ALC, but hated Russian Roulette too. He thought he'd hate 360 Waves, and loves it. It's so crazy to me who hates and loves what. A lot of people love Rare Chandeliers. Not me. I think it speaks to the crazy variety that Alchemist is doing with his beats now. I WANTED to like Russian Roulette, but I really don't.

I respect it, and it's creative, but not my cup of tea.

There's a new one he's doing with all Israel records. This one is actual chops and drums though. Less drumless loops.

"I'm not sure exactly how I'll do it, but it's more beats chopped up."

exactly... i think alot of people weren't up on the premise of the project, so it through em off a bit..

he dropped a really dope mix on a radio show weeks before RR, where he was just going through a little over a hour of samples.. damn.. i need my external..
