The album is cool for an ambient/new age joint. Should of released this next and not during the 50 anniversary of HipHop

After a few playthroughs i’m fukking with this.


This is a GREAT album to listen to when i’m writing scripts or doing research.


My favorite track is the Ghandi, Dalai Lama song. Dre did his THING on that one. Reminds me of Pharaoh Sanders work.


He’s for SURE going to be nominated for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album at next year’s Grammys
You tried. Tried hard.

I don’t get the “troll” narrative at all. When has Andre 3000 EVER been a troll type of artist. This is the man who made Hey Ya a multi week number 1 smash hit and then stopped performing it because he was bored with it. Dude has always done and not done what he feels. He’s not going on an entire promotional run for this album just to troll.


Hey ya while premise is a troll record.

Roses is a troll record.
Outkast entire career is based on trolling with gangsta rap. Then trolling gangsta rap as alternative.



Dre3k would definitely troll with his music.

How are you this forgiving about sellout style rappers.

I admit I am curious why he did so many guest features. My guess is that it was a little bit easier for him than doing a full solo rap album to whereas it would take more of a mental toll on him considering the fact that he’s not really wanting to fully commit to it.


Guest features are easy because its just one verse, and he’s comfortable with partnership having been in a group his entire career. I bet doing feature verse is literally like child’s play for him

My honest opinion,

I'm legit wondering if this is a troll album. I normally wouldn't seek out this kind of music and only listened because it's 3 stacks. I went in and didn't know what to expect. First 3 tracks were a chore to listen to. Once i realized the whole album was gonna be like this, i just let it play through in my headphones while working. It's not that bad as background sound when you doing stuff where you gotta focus.

I probably won't be listening to this outside of work. I probably would have said this is bs if it was someone else. Hell im not even sure if i like it. Also, i might look for other albums/playlists similar to this for work. I hesitate to call this music. Seems like "sound with musical ideas sprinkled in" which i guess can serve it's purpose.

Still feels like a troll album, lol

This is absolutely at troll album.

This is a fukk you for following him around harassing him.

Big middle flute to y'all.
