I really dislike the opening lyrics of this song but once I get past that the rest of the song is great.

I doubt it but if the chorus is inspired by those album covers, place that MC on mt. Rushmore. That's fukkin genius. Still don't get the song.

He tweeted out those album covers himself when "Adoration..." came out as a single so that part isn't even up for interpretation; he definitely wrote that hook w/ those album covers in mind.

Watching this shyt the other night literally blew my mind, made me think to myself "this motherfukker is the best lyricist ever"

Which is hard for me to say because I'm an Andre 3K stan:to:

Same dude/dudette that did Mural actually. I can only guess he's got more on the way, there definitely should be a "Prisoner 1&2" one at some point.


LUPE THE KILLA' :damn:

Granted, I haven't enjoyed the album through my first few listens, I like seeing the breakdowns.

I've supported the man (:smh: bought all the album cept LASERS) and appreciate the work.
