Felt like a throw away project.

shyt is good to me… when you listen to music without assuming what it’s gonna be you get different results. My gripe is that the songs are short

Your boy sounds like someone that listened to 3 Krit tracks total
This album made be revisit earlier Krit stuff and I’m glad I have his music on CD, laptop and the datpiff app, cause streaming has really tanked his previously released music. So many tracks either have samples entirely removed, instruments randomly inserted where they weren’t before, or instruments that are there replaced by different versions of that instrument. “1986” is missing the last 20 minutes of the beat switch and in ruins the whole song. I listened to Krit’s music a ton in real time, so all of these changes painfully sticks out like a sore thumb. It’s like the horns taken off the hook of Biggie’s “Ready To Die” track.
Krit's 'Digital Roses Don't Die' highlights his vocal abilities. The fusion of his singing and rapping simply float, whereas other artist would recruit other artist. It's a smooth project; it feels good.
Krit's entire NPR 'Tiny Desk' was wavy, but below are two points during Tiny Desk where Krit sings live 'Bury Me in Gold' and 'Where I Wanna Be' as a child. [just press play; the videos are timestamped]

The project sounds great. It has great sounds and rythms. Just seems to lack raps.
it seems krit has moved past trying to out rap the industry and would rather make melodic music.
which is fine to me. He has shown that he can lyrically compete with the greats and theirs enough of that to last a while.

But yeah i feel you on the instrumental aspect. but that's what happens dealing with samples these days.
I agree with Myke on this one.

This mirrors me and my friends and I was the only person who liked it also. Similar to Myke I also have a broader musical palette then the rest of the crew.

This is good music, but this is my least favorite K.R.I.T. album. This album is basically all negro spirituals and gospel music.
This is a natural evolution for someone as soulful as K.R.I.T., but I miss the dirty south bass thumpers.
