Absolutely floored by what a brilliant masterpiece this is. Completely mesmerizing. 5/5 unassailable.

Sometimes the albums that you absolutely love surprises me.

The level of Brockhampton love in the past was a bit of a surprise to me, even though they're great.

Would be interested to know what hip-hop OH dislikes, can't think of time I've seen him talking about it where he wasn't praising an artist or album.

I’m sort of luke warm on frowny’s Shabazz Palaces.

I think To Pimp a Butterfly is boring. ADHD is the only KL I like.

As for Kanye his early Golddigga single and his new gospel record are the only ones I like. Twisted bores me to tears.

I think I’ll probably like “Ye” when I revisit it.

I don’t think I’ve liked anything Eminem has done since his second LP and this new one. I hate that addiction recovery record that Bat likes.

I love early Tribe but their comeback thing was sad iirc.

It’s looking like Fetish Bones was a one off.

Saul Williams has made some very bad music.

Oh yeah... I remember being bored silly listening to Lupe Fiasco

***I reserve the right to change my mind about anything or to just be plain wrong or to contradict myself

New hip hop artists like Billy Woods and PEGGY have finally broken
the minstrel show model and have discovered ways to be entertaining post Biggie without catering to white suburban wankoffs to black on black violence (citing examples to contradict this theory won’t impress me)

Ja Saul Williams should stick to poetry.

I’m glad you left SP comment alone. We’ve gone around (a round?) on that one

No point in that

Fair. I like Shabazz Palaces but they're a bit overhyped for me too.

What exactly is it that impressed you so much with Em's new release?

Also I think it's relapse you're thinking of that Bat likes. It was the album after Recovery. And it's ****ing awesome.

It’s great

Some of the verses he spits are so virtuosic that it seems almost supernatural

That doesn’t mean I’m saying he’s the best or anything but he has a certain dexterity that is truly his own

Rap is more than that but it’s still mind blowing

Plus the album is creepy as hell really unnerving

This album fucks.
