Albums Killer Mike - "Michael" (Discussion Thread)

[Buddy]

Who did the mixing and mastering on thi I don't like it. shyt sounds dirty. The beats aren't near their full potential

 

[Motife43]

This album is ATLANNA, texture of the album is like some Conscious Rozay

I been listening to Mike religiously since like 2006-07, when his 2nd album got shelved, he had just left Purple Ribbon, was lightweight beefing with Big Boi and just putting out mixtapes for the most part.

This might be his best album, he has a budget, good producers and good SONGS. He didn't have a full album like this one in that 2006-2012 period. It's crazy that it's been 11 years since RAP Music, which I put right next to this one.

Talk'n That shyt had me in my garage like

Mann I find that hard to believe, hopefully Mike got him inspired though.

[Playaz Eyez]

Mann I find that hard to believe, hopefully Mike got him inspired though.

I hope he’s being inspired to make an actual rap album and not Love Below 2/Gnarles Barkley

[Ghost Utmost]

Listened to Down By Law.

Killer Mike has a decent pen.. but he has a distinct cadence he sticks to, and a fairly narrow range of images and schemas that he draws from.

Certainly not bad and sounds like a genius compared to contemporary rap.
