I like the tracks but can he chill with the same fake vinyl sample on every song? Like it's cool when you have a vinyl sound in a sample naturally but to overlay that sound over the top of the full length of every song is bordering on obnoxious.

Apollo Brown is that dude. Only thing I haven't felt from him is the Guilty Simpson album.

Really? I thought that album was dope.

Dunno, it left me kinda cold. Same with Guilty's album with Madlib. But I'm fukking with this new Guilty album tho. shyt is hard.

I know Alchemist has gotten more recognition but low key Apollo Brown has had a recent run that has been VERY impressive. Off the top...

The Left - Gas Mask
OC - Trophies
Ghostface - Brown Tape
Rass Kass - Blasphemy

that's just from the last few years. And don't sleep on his album with Hasaan Mackey brehs :wow:

:blessed:
