[the cool]

Little Death and Blur My Hands too a while for u?..Little Death is one of those joints that I thought everyone would fukk wit right away...that beat is so ill to me...those are some of my fav tracks...

Blur my hands and little death I skip every time

 

[nairdas]

Yeah my favorite song on here is Definitely TRON. The beat, the flow, the lyrics, and Troi killing the hook... Only downside is Ab-Soul. I would have much rathered had another Lupe verse.

"Redacted vision through these dark shades
Bad dreams through the screens of an arcade
Hanging on to joy like residue of heartbreak
Park full of art, arteries full of parkey"

I love the way he spit those bars.

So is it safe to say Glasses Malone murdered everybody on Chopper? "I'm bout dat I'm bout dat that Bentley out in my drive way cost more than my house did fukk land I'm fly today."

That verse goes hard, so many ratchet quoteables throughout it


"iPhone in my baby name"
"Stripper pole in my bedroom... but I'm a kill my daughter if she twerk"
"Side bytch saying she pregnant, but I ain't claiming shyt but the game"

 

[the cac mamba]

deliver

 

[Versa]

Blur My Hands slowly climbing into my top 5

"Now me and words, we made a deal, that I'm gon' keep 'em real
And they show me their secrets, I can even cop a feel
Victorious
Can't match wit, with warriors
I match wig with wits
Similarly can't mix matchsticks with forests"

Too much.

Talking about how amazing this album is pretty much repetitive at this point. Nothing else to say other than its the best album I've personally heard and I can't wait to see what he does next even though I'm only 40% done breaking down this albums many layers.

The key to its replay value is its depth and how fun the songs are to listen to while uncovering that depth. It's not abstract of "cryptic" (like that other thread calls it) to the point of being impossible to be understood. It's all very tangible and just takes time. The album wouldn't be as special if it was just surface level rhymes of don't beats. This is next level shyt.

This is everything his fans wanted and more, and it's everything hip hop needed.

maybe it's just not for u fam?..it's cool but I love that song...lol

Yeah definitely just him. Both those songs are great.

Not liking Little Death should be punishable by death

Damn, little death is the only song on here I don't like. It's the least entertaining to me. Slow hip hop type songs bore me.

This video has me looking forward to some more of her music. I haven't looked myself, but does she have any projects out now?

She's got champagne water......look it up

I understand. A lot of people can't rock with slow tempo songs like that

But the production & hook on Little Death are immaculate and Lupe's flow so effortless

That's Nikki Jean breh... I was referring to PJ

Chopper makes me want to go out and buy my first gun
