Nah, this album was GOOD, but it's nowhere near Control System level. It may or may not be better than Longterm 2

Just a few days ago I was thinking about creating a thread asking what are some of the best "rebound" albums. You know, a dope album that comes after a disappointed or bad one. These Days was trash IMO. I wrote Ab off after that...almost skilled DWTW until a friend I trust cosigned it. Listened and it was dope.

:ehh:

Production still holds up, lots of standout tracks...it's just a good album. Daps to Soulo

They’re at least on the same level

Do What Thou Wilt is the most cinematically sound album he has. The production is top notch, and Soul is at his peak as far as lyrics.

I don’t see how if this dropped after CS anyone could say it was a step down in quality

Lonely Soul is one of my favourite hip hop tracks I've listened to in recent years

Before the whole world eyeballed Top Dawg
They wouldn't even give this cat a rack to perform
Sure Alori was more than empathetic with the 700 I got

I severely slept on this album. It's up there w/ Control System to me.

This album got more burn than anything besides Tetsuo & Youth and even then I'd say I played it more consistantly. I studied this fukking album bro...I'm gonna need to get back into it soon. I really hope he drops another project along similar lines.
