I enjoyed the Never Forget album too.
I was extremely busy in my life when that came out.
I need to check that out as much as I am checking this out!

What are your thoughts on the album as a whole?
Personally I'm loving it
Lyrically he's bringing it, the production is actually quite good, I'm happy for his son!

I feel like making another thread, it's crazy that those that I consider the most talented hip hop artists are also the one's that speak positively. And that those who speak positively are also often the most talented lyricists.
What the hell is up with that relationship? Why is it like that?
Seriously, this is quite discussion-worthy.

Anyway, this album will pretty much be monopolizing the month of December!
After that I need to check out never forget better than I did as well.

No doubt, do that bro.

Yeah I'm fukking with the album, I only listened twice so far but am feeling it. I like the rawness, the styles and its lyrically sharp with dope content too. KRS is 1 of them brothers that really goes in content wise about issues directly and deeply into issues others may shy away from and he also has that MC element to his music, like that Sound Man joint, that's a live performance song lol. He normally always showcasing what a good MC he is and dope meaningful content. I'm very glad to hear new KRS and I really enjoyed it. The production is pretty dope, it can put you in that energetic hyped kind of vibe, I was vibing to the album like I was at a show when I heard it lol.

On your point I think intelligence is linked to positivity quite often, at least depth so you are more naturally inclined to speak positively and not fully ignorantly if you are an intelligent dude, KRS is highly intelligent, worldly and spiritual, he is the most misunderstood person in Hip Hop by some in my opinion, of course he gets huge respect but some don't get it..... Yet.. They may do though but may need to go on a path of their own self development before they realise the greatness of KRS. KRS is amazing and 1 of the greatest artists in music history to me, I put him up there with anyone, and better than nearly everyone.

Definitely need some threads on some of the albums songs too to bring attention to it. Hopefully this is sticked for a healthy period and gives peope a chance to check it properly. Great thread.

He got some good checks in his life.
