You're right, its a totally different type of album and sound.

 

[The next in line]

WTF at 10 years.

This album is when FE became FE in my opinion. I still prefer Connected, but I think most Little Brother fans probably do, because that project was more of a bridge between the LB sound and the later FE sounds, and was at least 50% a hip-hop album.Phonte and Nicolay hadn't even met when Conected was recorded, and so much of it was random. Phonte wasn't even on the first two tracks of Connected.

Leave It All Behind is when FE started to grow into their own entity. This album was fantastic though and I have a lot of memories with this album. It also paved the way for a lot of rappers to start signing more.

Connected is a personal classic of mine

Me too. Connected leading into stuff like Leave It All Behind helped shaped my taste in to what it is today.

Gonna give LIAB a spin to commemorate the anniversary.

 

[Kenny West]

Great album

 

[brownsugah]

One of the greatest albums of the past 20 years. It still sounds as fresh as it did when it dropped in 2008.

 

[Mindfield333]

I need to peep the last 2 FE albums. What y'all think about them? I personally loved the first 3

 

[EA]

Classic R&B album. I still remember when this first dropped and I was super confused when Daykeeper came on because I was expecting a continuation of Connected but by the time Take Off the Blues came on, I was all in
