I dig it. It's pretty much what I expected from Earl.

He's kinda been a little lifeless with the flow since he's been back though. He used to have more energy with his shyt. That's the only thing I can't get with here. It'll probably make me listen less. But the album is dope though.

Domo is definitely the nicest out of the crew. I think he showed that on "No Idols" with Alchemist. Him and Earl are serious.

Album is trash. Earl sounds dead. What happened to him in bootcamp? Did they try to beat the devil out of him? I guess he still had a little bit left.

So I finally heard the album (pre-ordered on iTunes)

And it's the best project I've heard this year. This and yeezus are it. Earl has a lot of lyrics and word play that catches me when I think of em. Dude is ill. Him and Kendrick are fighting for the crown for these young rappers. The beats are crazy. It reminds me of yeezus in fact that this album makes you listen over and over again to catch all the little changes and sounds and witty word play. My favorite cuts

Chum (great song)

I hate Tyler though. He raps like we suppose to already know he's dope. He comes off as a know it all. But earl is my favorite rapper of these new guys.
