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 was just saying the other day that I'd love to hear Devin the Dude do more with Alchemist. I need more tracks like this :

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.

It's in my top three of his favorite projects. There's something refreshing and immersive about Russian Roulette.

:patrice: Alchemist is my goat but there's something about this project I don't fukk with at all. I'm getting sick of these lackluster rappers man. This dude has some clever lines but he's just so fukking boring to listen to.

I actually wanna kinda cosign this. Not saying I don't fukk with it, but something is different. Like I said, the beats are in my top 3 collab projects easily. But I haven't played the album at all this week. For me I think the songs are too long. Boldy doesn't suck, but 50 mins is a long time to listen. I think it'd like it more if a couple verses were cut and it lost about 10 minutes or so.

Other than Consideration, nothing on this project stands out to me. I don't know why it's just missing something.

Nothing is fukking topping the Covert Coup shyt. NOTHING. M1CS is incredible and I have it in my rotation, but listening to Covert Coup for the first time in a few months just brings it back so strong. If they pressed Covert to CD and Vinyl, I'd cop both 2 times - One pair in the lockbox, one pair in the rotation. It was completely unique to me. Ventilation :ahh::ahh::ahh: and Success Is My Cologne :noah::noah::noah:

Man, the only thing that was disappointing about that entire album was the it wasn't pressed for retail.

That's still the best to me. Even over ROTM actually.
