Mick Jenkins - Pieces Of Man (Discussion Thread)

[GoldenGlove]

Straight riding music, his stuff also always reminds me of Isiah Rashard's music for some reason who I wish dropped this year but I digress. This album is hard and one of the best this year for me.

Makes me wish I owned a fly car like a low rider or Cadillac or some shyt v The lyrics are sharp, the production smooth as silk and I can see myself playing this back for month at least. I might have to cop this off itunes in fact.

Some things I noticed:


Grace and Mercy's Flow reminded me of this...


Dot Dot Dit Dit Dot Dot Dash is from Gil Scott Heron, Gil Scott Heron also has an album titled Pieces Of A Man too

He's been building off that Heron dialog for a minute for this album

Interesting, what if he reordered it and put the Connie Bailey Rae song with the skit at the end as the closer instead

I wouldn't of been mad if Understood was the last song. Or... What Am I To Do

Why don't you and your trash box take a walk

Because you don’t know a lot about MF doom. You can suck a dikk bytch.

Anytime he sings it’s pretty horrible

The only song he's singing on is Plain Clothes and that's clearly one of the stand out records on this album.


You might want to revisit this piff breh.
