Sucks that he doesn't know what the title actually means according to his Hot 97

Its actually an amazing idea as far as "do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law", people interpret it as like do whatever you want but what Crowley was actually talking about was following your "true will" which is basically like your destiny, what you were meant to do on this earth, not necessarily do what you wanna do and fukk everything else, its almost the opposite of that.

Crowley was an interesting guy :ld:

As far as the album goes, im gonna give it a listen later but not gonna lie, aside from Control System I've never been a big Ab fan

Yea I noticed that. He didn't know what the hell he was talking about.

Crowly sympathizers. No, he was a guy that wanted mans animal nature to be at the forefront and not something we should be trying to surpress.

Which isnt good.

Whats his next gimmick, the Necrmonicon?

:camby: He needs to stop playin with devil shyt because the devil gonna get his due. :ufdup:

No I'm not a Crowley sympathizer! If you would've paid attention you would've noticed I was talking about the fact that when Ebro and Rosenberg asked him what his album title meant AB SOUL DIDN'T KNOW HIMSELF. He gave some bullshyt answer. He kept fumbling to come up with a meaning.

This is a dope album, definitely better than These Days. But as someone downthread said, Ab-Soul has really fallen behind KDot and Q when it comes to thinking about a whole album conceptually. Doesn't really seem like he has a strong vision for this one. But track for track I'd say this is pretty strong. shyt like Lonely Soul is next level

He really has because there's some truly :what:-worthy verses on here. Might have to concede TDE having the best in-house production right now. The production on Isiah Rashad and this so far is immaculate
The one where he said he's finger fukkin mother earth had me like :wtf:
