MODERATORS
I never really sat down to listen to this album start to finish, only random songs before... but having done so now I truly get a sense of why other rappers have taken inspiration, cues or straight up referenced his style in their own productions.
Personally, when the lyrics cause the listener to reflect on themselves or the world around them it takes the song to another level. I don't mean in a deep philosophical way but even if it makes you go "yea something about that clicks with me", it's like having a conversation with the music yknow?
And this album does that for me, real pleasurable experience.
I actually had a similar experience with this album. I first heard some of the tracks back in like...2010ish? Then finally listened to it all the way through in 2020 during COVID. I thought it was crazy how it managed to take tracks I like and, in the context of the whole album, make them even better.
