4.0 excellentyoss33 | March 3rd 20

Show me on the doll where the album cover touched you... anyone giving this a 1.5 and under you're in the wrong genre or wrong art form for that matter.

Guest MC's names speak for themselves and do solid job for the most part. This is his best since Private Press to my ears. Instrumentals vary from serviceable to great, though a couple i don't care for. Shadow is more in his element than last few releases imo, straight hip-hop that goes down smoothly and MC's on point lyrically as well; but I guess Julian Assange references, meaningful, well delivered lyrics are passe, freedom of press/free speech conscious hip hop and so forth isn't what kids like these days.

Copped this for 10 bucks which is essentially a double lp so great value on top of quality production. Nothing overly innovative ala Endtroducing, just competent and inspired work. Welcome surprise tbh I had doubts based on the overall rating but turns out it's due to the volume of hypersensitive pussies who keep a constant vigilant lookout for something to be offended by.

Not sure what people's problem is with this. Enjoyed the vast majority of the material on here, though Endtroducing is my only other reference point for him.

3.5 greatGoldenGuy444 | January 1st 20

Not the expanded follow up to The Mountain Will Fall that I wanted. But the vocal half of this album is solid. Production is interesting and lyrics, while leaning more towards melodrama, do what they need to. The instrumental section of the album though (W/o Firestorm, We Are Always Alone and Rosie) are at times awful. With some tracks (Beauty... and Juggernaut specifically) sounding likes absolute wastes. Beauty... just goes off a cliff with a terrible synthline and Juggernaut being a wasteland of vocal cuts and sparse synths.
