This nikka fire af, and this whole tape is fukking insane, been going thru all his tapes with Alc

Boldy's an incredible emcee. Glad you're enjoying the music

I made a dope playlist on tidal with all their music minus the first one. I remember brehs on here weren’t feeling the kid when My 1st Chemistry Set dropped I’m happy he’s getting his props.

Tecmo Bo is probably my favorite

New stuff they got in the chamber. Should get a new album from them in 2024.

KA would've been perfect for 'Grey October'...

I know he would've strangled the hell out of that beat...

Listened to this on a flight today. Cot damn. Flawless album. Modern classic. The sequencing on this is so fire. You couldn't put these 12 songs in a better order

This is def the project that convinced me Boldy was Alch's muse (and vice versa), the same way Prodigy was for Alch. Their chemistry is amazing and this project really started a stunning run.

“Slow Roll” is a heater. Sounds amazing in the whip

Very late on this but this album is great, took me a few tries over the years to "get it", but it finally clicked. Been bumping pretty much nothing but this and Mics for a few weeks, guess yall can welcome me to the club



My favourite song keeps changing. Fukkin with speed demon freestyle heavy right now but surf n turf and scrape the bowl are probably my favorite songs off this. The boy can flow

The amount Boldy drops, I can't fathom why he and Alc haven't released anything since 2021

I’m curious too. I’d never have thought we’d have to wait 3-4 years. There’s a decent amount of studio footage on Twitter of them making songs the past year. I think we’ll get another one this year. He had a white board posted last month of upcoming projects and “boldy james album” was written on there along with Mobb Deep, Alfredo 2, etc.

Slow Roll might be my favorite. You ever hear Bernadines off the deluxe edition? Similar vibe.

Still one of my favorite Boldy/Alchemist songs
