I'm leaning on 'Reloaded' being in that special realm.

I can't stop running this back. This minimal New York shyt is so motherfukking perfect sounding. Roc & Ka are as exciting as Black Hippy IMO. Exciting may be the wrong word given their styles....


do not for one LA minute think NYC ain't ready to scorch ey'thing.


and Alchemist is involved in it all peripherally.


Roc sonned Action Bronson something awful too.

Yeah, this is a very special album. It's funny though. The critics that are praising don't really seem to even get it. It's not more of the same. Way different than Marcberg imo, which was also incredible. The level of rhyming on this album is ridiculous and the beats are innovative. "Wee Ill" is one of the illest songs I've heard this year. I'm really surprised there hasn't been more discussion on the album.

Roc improved on this album and the production is different, but as a whole it's not THAT different from Marcberg.

Dope album.

Album is shocking. I was concerned by the snippets but this shyt is amazing. Only song I can't get into is Deeper, due to the vocal sample

Its such a weird little awesome album. Im amazed that Roc was able to stretch the concept into a full album that evolves all the way to the end

I was never able to spin Marcberg fully even tho there were gems, this ones way more interesting I find

Not to begrudge Marcherg, because that shyt went, but this is what a follow SHOULD be. This isn't some step backwards sellout shyt like IWW (Rocs favorite album).

This truly may trump Marcberg.
