I thought it had moments, but that they couldn't be redeemed by what I considered negative qualities (f.ex. that piano based song where the guy at the end talks about ****ing for two or three minutes).
So far, I've found a few albums that I consider listenable, but wouldn't purchase for myself or listen to regularly.
- Eternia & MoSS - At Last
- Dalek - Absence
- Buck 65 - 20 Odd Years
- Beast - Beast
- Why? - Alopecia
I like instrumental hip hop, and I love trip hop. The one album closest to hip hop in nature that I can say I love through and through is Gorillaz - Demon Days.
So, any hope for me?

I would check out Company Flow's 'Little Johnny From the Hospital'. It's a very diverse, instrumental hip-hop album that could fit your criteria.

As for myself, I have a few different genres I really dislike. So, I might be back later when I decide the direction I want to go in.
