Evidence - Unlearning Volume 1 (new album) discussion thread

[TheDarceKnight]

Only tangentially related but I was listening to an old Lootpack joint from '98 and Evidence said, "2020 no doubt will be a strange year"

Never heard that song. That’s crazy.

It's been great seeing Evidence get better, one of the few MC's who improve year to year, great beatmaker too, crazy when I think back to hearing him on Defar's 1st LP, time fukking flies.

I've said this half a dozen times on here, but I used to really dislike him as a rapper. Like, he was easily one of my least favorite emcees on the underground scene in the early 2000's. He bored the fukk out of me, and I only listened to early Dilated albums for Rakaa. I'd never guess in a million years that he'd end up being one of my favorite artists in the game, and as a solo artist at that? And that Rakaa would have basically just retired quietly? No way.

Life is weird.

EDIT: And the crazy shyt is that Ev's entire movement and solo career was inspired by Big Pooh from Little Brother and his Sleepers solo project. @old boy

Not familiar with a couple names on the tracklist. Interested to know who the producers are as well, I remember he wanted to produce the bulk himself but fir joint is Alc.

Hyped whatever happens as Ev only drops piff.

[Middle Finga U]

I hit the pre order on Bandcamp for the FLAC. Ev is one of the few artists that will get my hard earned paper

 

[Apollo Kid]

Been bumping Cats & Dogs this morning in anticipation for this album. My personal favorite Evidence album

 

[mbewane]

Ev always drops solid stuff.

 

[NYK Loyalist]

I just copped 2 of the t-shirts on the pre-order

 

[ShaDynasty]

Alchemist's work ethic is nuts. I don't know how he can do so much without needing a break at some point. Still, should ge good, Ev & Alc have great stuff going back years.
