Killah Priest - Rocket To Nebula (Discussion Thread)

[deimoz]

soundz like he's "story-telling" over instrumentalz that werent crafted for actual rap verses ...

itz a cool concept ... sumthing different from sumone whoz been in the game for yearz ....

but not what I would expect after listening to "The Psychic World Of Walter Reed" ...

 

[Barney Rubble]

The rapping on this is insane. Priest sounds much sharper than on his last couple of albums.
And I absolutely loved PWOWR and Planet if the Gods.

Secret Anticipation is an early favorite:

Beautiful.

 

[Brayden]

Yeah lyrically this album is definitely on point. I really miss the drums though, but the lack of them helps me to focus on the rhymes so maybe thats what he was going for. Its an album I have to be in a certain mood to play.

 

[NormanConnors]

I get why Priest went without drums

That shyt for the mind only


With drums this project would have been outstanding, still dope though, lyrically this is robust and a lot of the drum less beats work

Starring directly into the sun

KP always been a beast. Definitely fathered a lot of styles.

 

[mobbinfms]

Priest is spitting crazy over these drumless beats.
I’d love to hear a KP/ALC album. Or KP/Madlib album.

 

[newworldafro]

Gone need a DJ to add some drums to this shiit.

KP in my Top 10, and I respect his creative license, but I need drums ...

 

[Billy Ocean]

Priest spitting on this. This woulda been really nice with some drums. As is it's pretty cool.

 

[Mtt]

Up on Spotify and Tidal. There are barely any drums on the entire album. Its different, but I'm really liking it.

Thanks.
He also has this podcast YouTube channel he talks to interest guests.
Dude always been super lyricsl

Really like the album, but the cover is mad corny to me... Something out of an 80's fantasy movie with bad fx.

But maybe I am missing something here? Why is a troll in a tree fishing for a small rocket? Why does the tree have a face and a heart saying the album title? And Priest's face is upside down in the clouds? Where are we anyway? I can't make much of it...


He could have kept it simple and showed an actual rocket going to a Nebula in space, and it would have been ill.

 

[Eddie Brock]

One of my all-time favorites. Gonna check it out now thanx OP.

 

[god shamgod]

Starring directly into the sun and the arrival home dope

The album cover look like it could be a children’s book tho

 

[b33lz]

Time to check this out.

 

[TrifeGod]

Edit You should a buy link in the OP

 

[Newportbox]

I fux with Priest, but I will never listen to this joint again.
