WOAH... Brother Ali is back... Mourning in America

[FAH1223]

Nah, they don't. It's just that the trolls noticed the thread when it got bumped.
They started reading and saw no hating going on. Since the trolls dont accept threads with no hate in them here on Coli they had to do something.

Some of em is even trying to hard.

Ignore the trolls and keep enjoying the good music.

PS. Listening to the deluxe version of the album (dont remember what version we had up here on coli) and noticed the first verse on the sway in the morning freestyle is of the last song 'dreaming in color'.

how can anyone hate Brother Ali

dude is mad humble, one of the coolest dudes I ever met

 

[A.V.]

Son got skills.

 

[FAH1223]

gave the album to my brother and kid can't stop listening to it

it resonates with the average person

 

[Turenne]

One of the best LPs this year. Jake One's beats have greater staying power and replay value than Ant's stuff imo.

forgive me brehs i was sleepin a friend of mine told me to check this album out at first i was like but i gave in i put the album on an so the journey began

Letter To My Countrymen - love this track felt that first verse especially this part

"We're up against an ugly trend
Everybody's hustling don't nobody touch their friends
No group singing and dancing
No anthem nobody holds hands, and...
Instead they give u handheld
And make you shoulder life's burden by your damn self"



Only Life I Know - that entire second verse was just
Mourning In America
Need a Knot
Say Amen
Fajr
My Beloved
Singing This Song

im not familiar with his music is all his work this good? if so tell me his best project i would think it would be hard to have a doper album then this...but if so let a brotha know...

there was some dope albums this year such as
killer mike - rap music
skyzoo - dream deferred
lupe fiasco - f&l2
nas - life is good
kendrick lamar - G.K.M.C
even the soundtrack to The Man With The Iron Fist theres a couple more but i typed those to say this...

i never would have thought a rapper named Brother Ali whom i've never heard of made the best album of the year (IN MY OPINION ) so far at least years not over yet
but i cant stop playin this album

 

[K-Deini]

work everyday is my shyt.

"People stressing, here’s the question
How they get people drinking tea in a recession?
It’s deception, how absurd is this?
How are so many poor people conservative?"

"You’re staring in the sky with dollar signs for eyes
The blind right wing of a bird that can’t fly
Just a peacock with a poked out gut
Who’s too fat to fly so his ass just strut"

 

[The_Hillsta]

Jake One laced this damn album....Props to Brother Ali

This that sh1t right here

 

[FAH1223]

I Need a Knot brehs

im not familiar with his music is all his work this good? if so tell me his best project i would think it would be hard to have a doper album then this...but if so let a brotha know...

Check out his whole history breh... his last album, "Us" is a classic

 

[The Ruler 09]

The All I Need joint from this album was dope, so was My Beloved, good album.

 

[TillWeDie]

subs

 

[Big Mel]

Good album and all but I didn't really feel like Jake brought the same level of heat he did on Stimulus Package, White Van Music and that TruthLive album.

 

[The Ruler 09]

This was very good.

 

[Monoblock]

I need to go back and listen to this.

 

[The Ruler 09]

I need to go back and listen to this.

Was dope, was just listening again now, no less than 4 mic album, arguably 4.5. Some exceptional work.

 

[The Ruler 09]

I enjoy the album even more now than when it first came out.
