[Trace]

on reflection he talks about being 6'5''

do you really listen to music or you just skim through it

i am tall though lol.... gotta acknowledge and support my fellow beautiful tall human beings!

To be honest I only heard one project and some features, so that's on me. I'm about to check this out though to see how it is.

New interview with Ebro droppin later but I agree with the statement in this clip. Damn shame this thread still isn't upped when this shyt is better than every last one of those albums that dropped on the same day.

Never gave Mick Jenkins a proper listen until now, but sure glad I did. Low-key with a boulder-sized chip on your shoulder, it’s melodic, but still bar-heavy like the bread scheme on Rug Burn is fire. Airing out frustrations on an intro that should be fearless and flipping “lost in the sauce” into something worth wishing for. The back half of the album eventually alternates between the dark liquor and clear water vibes more frequently or distinctly, finally facing your demons and not letting them become you.

 

[LevelUp]

Yeah this is solid.

 

[Ensi]

Dope album

I don't know.... I'm not feeling this too heavy. Outside of Contacts, I'm not running this back as much as I'd like to for a Mick Jenkins project

 

[bordeaux]

on first listen, feels alot different than the circus. i think that was stronger, i really loved that project. i do like the production here. not really sure what i could compare it to. i feel like i need to sit w/ it more to really form an opinion.
