"I seen the end, they don't wanna start with us
It'll cost them an arm and a leg
The other leg, the other arm, and his head"

The arm and leg reference spells out "Allah" meaning you'll lose your life and your God....bars I say, BARS:whew:

First time listening to him, is this his best project?
He's got a strong catalog so it really depends on what you prefer. The Waters tape is what really put him on the map. It's somewhat of an underground classic at this point. Check that out then check out The Healing Component and Elephant in the room. Really great albums. Then check his other mixtapes. The circus. Waves. All of em have some gems. Even his SoundCloud tapes.

He should be way bigger than he is. He's got the tools to be a star. He got the voice. The mic presence. The hooks. He can rap over boom bap. Can rap over trap. But he's always said he doesn't want fame and he's happy being unknown and living the simple life. He talks about it in his raps. Personally I think he's got a stronger catalog than Cole. I'm actually surprised Cole never tried to get him on dreamville considering he's really cool with JID and earthgang and even toured with them.


These are a couple short tapes he dropped on SoundCloud a couple years back






These are a couple classic songs from way back when he first hit the scene. Off his Trees and Truths tape which was also dope.

Nas stans furious that I called this album of the year :pachaha:


And it still is:yeshrug:


I was listening to a new Mick interview and he said he considers this album as his beginning. Said everything before this album was half assed:ohhh:.....said he got himself in a bad deal and only owned half his publishing so it was hard for him to get inspired for work he didn't fully own. But now we're getting greatness every time:wow:.... you can definitely tell the difference in production value. This album sounds epic.

Not gonna lie, the album is good but starting the album that good I thought I was about to listen to a modern classic.

Michelin Star is crack and might be the best song on the album
