Evidence - Weather Or Not (Discussion Thread)

[TheDarceKnight]

Yeah, same with me. This was the first album I bought this year, and it's still going strong. It's filmed in Duisburg, Germany this it the spot right here

Damn that's dope. It almost remind same of a staircase version of a roller coaster, which is another layer since he already shot a music video riding a roller coaster. Dualities.

He did a lot of videos for this album yeah? I wanna say like half the album has a video for it.

Yeah he dropped at least 5-6 videos off this. He mentioned on IG that this one was the last one to close out the year

Little late for the one year anniversary but:

Also, the new album in progress. He's doing most of the production on it.
"I was aiming to make it all myself, I don’t know if that’s gonna happen. My biggest thing now is to decide [on], do I make two albums? One that I do myself, and one with my favorite people, or do I blend the two? I been talking to a lot of other people, trying to figure out what the sound and the shape of the record is. I don’t want to make another weather record, I’m just trying to figure it out. I have three or four songs that I’m using as the way to shape it."

Cool to hear his perspective, I couldn't imagine what he's going through losing his girlfriend with a young son.

Hopefully we hear some Dad raps on the new album. A double disc would be dope, one fully produced by him and the other outsourced.

I agree. This isn’t the first time he’s talked about producing for himself more, but he makes a good point here, that’s he said elsewhere too. Which is, “if I have so much access to guys like Alc, Preem, and Nottz, then I feel kind of selfish producing everything myself when I know I’m not as good as them.”

I think that’s a cool perspective. He also said he wants to drop the album quick.

This should start at 30:49 and was filmed near the end of 2018. He also talks in depth about Throw It All Away at 29:12.Apparently he re-did the 2nd verse several times and hadn't heard the Madlib or Apollo Brown versions.

Looks like his lady dying is just making him want to keep his head down and work.

Tough Crowd is the next album title. Expect him to produce at least half of it himself.

 

[mobbinfms]

His wife died?
I couldn’t even begin to imagine.

Ev is the man. Guy has continued to ramp upward over the years.

I know man, especially with a young kid. Peeping his Instagram it looks like he's on his Dad game heavy though which makes me respect Ev even more as a person.

Be interesting to hear the content on the next album, he's always such an honest and open rapper on his solo joints.

Tough Crowd is the next album title.

Dope interview

Ev catching Adam22 juelzing over whether he fukks with new rappers was

Also, he made a good point about these top 50 lists. You can't make a top 50 for a genre so vast, it makes no sense. You need to have sub-categories at this point
