Isaiah Rashad - The House Is Burning (Discussion Thread)

[mbz]

Only heard the singles. This man gave y’all Cilvia Demo and Sun’a Tirade. If he just wants to make shyt to vibe to he can old nikkas

Nobody asking him to bring in them Ras Kass bars. His previous albums were better lyically AND can be vibed to.

This is def more of a mood than anything but that’s one thing I always liked about his music anyway.

On first listen I can def see myself coming back to it just for the vibe. Good for what it is and there’s some excellent tracks in there too.

I know I’m a fan. Haven’t been a fan as long as y’all cause he went under my radar. Times have changed I can see why he wants to dumb it down. It’s a vibe, I don’t want him to be Lupe status. I want him to be more popular

 

[Nero Christ]

yea...production is cool even though I think it's more generic sounding than his previous efforts but lyrically, nothing here is gonna make me want to relisten. I get tying an artist to their debut and it choking them, but CD had a dope sound with very good lyricism

 

[Mortal1]

Dope album on first listen

If you only listened to the singles, you would think this is bad. But as a project flows, the songs sound better & the transitions are nice.

Then just enjoy the shyt. Clearly capable to have bars but he wanted to go a different route. I can see why.

The singles are good y’all nikkas old. nikkas listen to Pooh shiesty, babyface ray, peezy, icewear vezzo, etc. Zay deserves the spotlight

 

[Professor K.]

I feel like anybody mad/disappointed at this really doesn't understand it yet

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Three tracks in and I'm floating like a Spike Lee montage camera shot.

This is bopper music for the vibaz, not the aggressive youngins. Old heads on the porch discussing Pokemon cards with Blacks in the mouth.

Real Hip Hop heads need not to apply

Breh I've been listening to it all day, doesn't mean I can't levy any criticisms.

nikkas getting the prongs and test kits out for Zay but for other artists they using kiddy gloves. Y'all "real hip hop" oldhead wack. This album is a vibe and better than tirade.

WAY better than Tirade but not fukking with Clivia but close runner.
