Like I'm an AL stan just like most people with good taste are... But the shyt is confusing to me like...every since he started doing these collab albums with more “well known” artist I feel like either he or the artist box him into the “real hiphop” sound and that results in this ambient music ass shyt that sounds like something you'd hear on an elevator.… its like he's been typecasted to only one sound when he’s too dope to be put in that box.… he was always avant garde when he was in his early prime...going left when all the other producers were doing glossy 106 and park music... But its like his shyt has stagnated now and people are doing his style better than him…with the same artist he works with
Like where has HNIC 2 AL gone
THIS is that Alchemist shyt I need
That unorthodox shyt
Where is Cookbook alchemist at? That grimey atmospheric sounding shyt that he perfected.
Like this nikka used to make shyt that sounded spooky.…shyt that played in lucifers layer.… now its like all we get is the “I gave my life to god” Al
The last time I heard him get wild like this was maybe on that Red Death track but W$G is musicophile who knows that back catalog and could get him in that zone...but we need more of it.
