Im gonna say it...

i think it night be a underground classic :manny:

Boldys caught fire off this and the Griselda signing has caught peoples attention

Alchemist production is top notch :banderas:

Give it time and if Boldy and Griselda keep growing...can see it happening

Random point but to me TPOTIC is every bit as good as Pinata/Bandana...both viewed as 5 mics heavily

I think it might be an underground/cult classic too. I didn’t love it right away and I don’t love it as much as Piñata or Bandana but it’s fire. This is probably the definitive Boldy project. I still prefer the production on M1CS (arguably my favorite Al batch so far) but Boldy as a rapper then as compared to now isn’t even close. He’s twice the emcee now.

Dude has definitely elevated

No doubt Pinata and Bandana are both great albums and borderline classic to me

Madlib consistently has Al trumped in creating a cinematic soundscape for his albums

However the stand out tracks on here are a level above to me

For some reason I think it's Al but I'm not sure. I need that track, it's not on any project and it came out a little before Boldface EP

This is pretty much how I feel about Boldy.

His energy is way too low for ALC production, always sounds like he's barely awake. But that's my opinion. I copped the album for the beats. And I'm not ashamed to admit that, lol.

It was hard for me to get into this album do to his monotone bland delivery. Heard him on Gunns new album and decided to give it another shot. Surf and turf goes.

He’s not an anytime rapper but in the right mood and especially driving at night? The album is incredible. Definitely gonna be an underground gem. Classic goon music.
