Boldy James & The Alchemist - My 1st Chemistry Set (October 15, tracklist, cover)

[DaveyDave]

I think the following MCs would benefit great from the ALC treatment:

Cam
Devin
Jada


I'd like him to work with some legends. I get he's spotlighting younger talent but they just aren't as good as the bigger names.

i read or saw an interview a few weeks ago where Alc was saying he basically just made his crib the drop house. any MC can come in & chill, make music if they want, shyt's just going all the time that's how he has all these projects going all the time. because he lives in LA there's a lot of young up & coming LA talent coming through as well as anyone else who just happens to drop by.

If I had a dollar every time Mike mentioned he doesn't like the lack of drums on Russian Roulette and Rare Chandeliers I'd be Bill Gates status

that style is hit & miss for me. with the right MC and the right samples it's dope but sometimes it just seems like he was blunted as fukk and looped up any old thing. i wasn't feeling Russian Roulette too much (i do have to give it more time IMO) but i like Rare Chandeliers

[THE 101]

Russian Roulette is ill.

I like how it's much more thematic and conceptual than the usual Alchemist project of give a middle of the road rapper a bunch of dope instrumentals.

So your ALC catalogue don't have "Chemical Warfare", "Return Of The Mac"... or even "Rare Chandeliers" and "No Idols"?

 

[Danie84]

I heard all of those albums except for Chemical Warfare(gotta get up on that). ALC's the GOAT, but I'm don't just put everything on the Ipod. Only classics and great albums goes on it it

 

[BlackMagnus514]

Alchemist needs to finish and drop that Devil's Palace joint with Freddie Gibbs. I been fient out for that since Scottie Pippens.
