The beat on soft landing is incredible! The way those guitars melt together to create such a psychedelics sound is so fire...Fantano is tripping for that one.
@@filesjofficial The whole production on the album is otherworldly. It reminds me of (bear with me) that one youtube lofi girl, a dark, dingy alleyway, and a warm cup of tea at the same time. But I might just be tripping.
I don't really remember track names, so when I went back to the album to hear which track this was I was baffled, Soft Landing is possibly my favorite song on this thing.
maybe you’re noticing a similarity in the way I describe his rapping from album to album because I’m noticing a similarity in his rapping from album to album.
my favourite song 💀 that’s why it’s important to not take melons word as gospel even when he shows you a lot of cool music because with it being his opinion you’ll find that sometimes he’s right on and other times you’ll be left scratching your head
Because fantano never gives any positive opinions about rap music that isnt “experimental” , “agressive” or “energetic” there is no point even watching the review of most things cuz his taste in rap is shit
Eveey song is amazing, and yes, Soft Landing is still the best song. I swear Fantano picks the best song and puts it in his least favorite just to troll people or something.
Billy Woods has to be in the best of all time conversation now. He’s incredibly consistent, been at it for 20 years straight, is incredibly talented and is very recognizable
@@royalwarlord2342 I literally blast the shit on my speaker when I'm biking lol but yeah it's hard to even get my closest friends into billy woods. Like one told me he was put off by the beatless tracks and the nihilistic vibe on the older shit, but I'm like cmooooon man. Imma have a talk with him about getting him to listen to Aethiopes cause that's a 10 in my book
@@TheShankPimp lmao yes he has a big fanbase the internet is pretty big 😂😂😂 settle down there bud im just poking fun but this shit niche af. My buddy keep trynna put me on and i just cant with this ☠️
This albums deserves a strong 9. In fact Billy Woods never deserves lower than a 7. He’s broken the threshold and is only being compared to himself in other moments of his career.
@@zeno6169 I’m aware, which is insane. I’m pretty sure Fantano would acknowledge that any Billy woods album is better than every lil pump album yet he game one a 7. I think Fantano gets in the habit of hold certain artists to a very high expectation, and when they don’t reach it he ranks them against the ones that do, leaving them with a lower score. But I’m reality, they are much better albums than others he will give higher rankings to.
@@ndenhalter enjoyability comes into factor though. You might recognize if an album is well produced or if the lyrics are decent, but if you don't enjoy that much then it's fine to give a an average or even below average score. It's personal how you connect with music at the end of the day. Nobody should feel pressure to give one album a good score because everyone is enjoying or else it wouldn't be authentic
NYC Tapwater to me is about woods returning from his tour after missing home and still feeling out of place, because of the slow creeping gentrification in his neighbourhood. That ties in so well with the story at the beginning with him attending a dinner party at a wealthy white neighbour's and turning into a bit of a monster figure. The thematic thorough-lines really take this album to another level.
"Sooner or later it's gon' be two unrelated active shooters / Same place, same time / Great minds, Tesla and Edison" holy shit, when I heard this line I had to look up the lyrics to make sure I heard it right, absolutely insane
@@angelom.7892 Hip Hop sense. Great minds making a living on the streets and ending the great potential of one another by crime (Jail and murder). The competition of great minds thinking they know the right way when they both do in a way and are partly on the right track but focused on a competition for survival rather then their own genius. Humans / History is always looking for a winner. That my interpretation after reading the line.
To me he's commenting on mass shootings in America, saying that with how common they've become he wouldn't be surprised if he saw that there were two unrelated mass shooters in the same place at the same time. He sarcastically compares them to Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison.
Imo at least a 9. The line "I don't go to sleep i tread water till i sink" just fuckin hits so hard in the feels. Those Danny Brown and Aesop Rock features were sick as fuck too. Production was on point!
yet another stellar woods album only receiving an 8, he’s arguably dropped 3 records deserving 10s in the last 5 years. and how could you not have soft landing, rapper weed, or agriculture as favorite tracks??
Billy and Kenny do not miss. I still remember when you reviewed History Will Absolve Me, and that’s when I started watching this channel! Much love Melon, this is AOTY so far for me.
Can we just acknowledge that Billy, JPEGMAFIA, and Danny Brown are some of the most consistent rappers in the game, and have quietly dropped the two best rap albums of the year so far?
Soft Landing is my favorite track off the LP😭 Such a sorrowful instrumental, works perfectly for woods. Reminds me a lot of All Jokes Aside or Pollo Rico from the vibe alone
This is at least a 9 for me. It's the best album billy has dropped thus far (imho) I have played it front to back at least 7 times already! billy & Kenny are a dream team and I hope we get another one down the road.
This album is so good its actually insane and as always he says so many things that make me think but laugh at the same time. When he said got caught lackin like 9/11 I lost it.
Soft Landing is one of my favorite instrumentals on this album. I do think The Layover sounds like something off Dour Candy or Known Unknowns tho, so I see what he means when he says it sounds typical for woods.
Didn’t hit as hard as Hiding Places for me but these two are 100% still one of the best pairings of rapper and producer in the entire hip hop game today
Really enjoyed this one! Billy is quickly becoming my favorite. Love hearing Quelle and Danny on this too, they're some of my favorites when it comes to artists who feature frequently
i saw billy last year and it seemed like he didnt want to be there at all. it was aweosme 10/10 great show bought tickets again for end of this month on maps tour
His writing has improved massively. This, Brass, Haram and Aethiopes are just as good as Hiding Places, if not better. Which is pretty insane because Hiding Places is one of the best hip hop albums of all time.
I did see Billy live and I was standing right next to earl and alchemist before the show I looked up and earl was 5 feet away staring at me and I should’ve said something but I pussed out
Didn’t really enjoy it as much as Hiding Places but that’s only really because Hiding Places is one of my favorite records of all time. Great project and i’m very happy the two did something together again. They just have a perfect chemistry between each other that only comes around once in a blue moon, like Doom and Madlib
Awesome review Anthony. thank you for always reviewing Billy woods, because when it comes to underground hip hop he's only had like one miss in the last 5 years. Which was church but I even still liked half of that album. So as you can probably tell from reading I am a fan, and with that being said this album is just what I needed. Kenny Segal was the perfect producer for him to hook up with they fit each other like a glove. Plus pull the best out of each other in my opinion. Because good lord the beats on this thing nasty, the bars on this thing super nasty. Plus imo every feature did there thing and not one of them missed. All around awesome album.
Highly disagree with you saying it's an improvement over Hiding Places. That album's untouchable with masterpieces like SpongeBob, Spider Hole, A Day in a Week in a Year etc. But of course, Billy is super consistent as ever and this album is just another great addition to his incredible run. And I can't believe you didn't like Soft Landing, that one's just like a classic Billy song to me. You misspelt "Waiting Around" in the description!
yo i think that crocodile tears bar is also in reference to the track of the same name off of "history will absolve me". (fucking incredible album btw) the album that was supposed to be his final but ended up jumpstarting the leg of his career were all familiar with now. it came out in 2012 roughly ten years from when he probably was recording the verses for this project.
I've been listening to Maps repeatedly since it was released and it's crazy how some of the lyrics stick in my mind along with their unique flow. They don't necessarily rhyme but they do border on poetic in how billy strings them together: "Colorful packaging, pack 'em in Fly like gold on Africans Cover my tracks with backronyms If the track slaps, in the back, you can almost hear the black cackling" and also "God bless this sweet home, my beloved heart 124 bluestone crouched on thin haunch While I get dome from the living Conch fritters crispin' in the kitchen Grew gaunt in prison My own warden, celly, and superintendent Flaunt flagrant disassociation Dissonant cadence Free political dissidents from they cages But leave 'em open We got lists of names, pages and pages Wouldn't want to waste the space the previous regime gave us This message is to inform you your service will be suspended For non-payment Midnight ravens Head in the loud clouds, both feet on the fuckin' pavement"
I literally ASCENDED reacting to blue smoke and year zero. seeing soft landing in the least fav tracks made me sad tho ngl. and rapperweed and agriculture not in the fav tracks those were literally insane
I dont know what it is about this album but Billy woods had never clicked with me until this one. Every previous album ive tried ive bounced off after a few tracks but this one hit different for some reason (I have zero idea why). I wanna go back and try his older output again.
Oh there it goes another eight for billy woods ain't even gagged I'd be more surprised the moment that anthony scores billy with something lower than a seven
Hey Anthony, i don't know if you were already planning to do it, but today the band Lovejoy just dropped their new album called "Wake Up & It's Over". I did listen to the album and i think that it's pretty good, so it would be cool for me to hear your opinion on it. I also think that some songs sound like the songs on the self-titled debute Weezer album, which is pretty cool.
i saw armand hammer live and they played some from this (soft landing was beautiful live). i met billy after the show what a down to earth and real guy, even got a photo with him

Eveey song is amazing, and yes, Soft Landing is still the best song.
I swear Fantano picks the best song and puts it in his least favorite just to troll people or something.
Billy Woods, Run The Jewels, & Denzel Curry are all in a heated race to see who can score a 9/10 first
fr, this is Billy's eighth 8/10 now. (History WIll Absolve Me, Known Unknowns, Paraffin, Hiding Places, BRASS, HARAM, Aethiopes, and now Maps)
Aethiopes deserved a 9 easily. RTJ2 is a personal 9/10 for me and Denzel got close with TA13OO
"Love Again" from RTJ2 is a pretty weak song, and I don't see any album with it as deserving a 9/10. Aethiopes did deserve a 9 though
Aethiopes and RTJ4 both deserved 9/10
Aethiopes should easily be a 9 in my opinion.
Billy Woods has to be in the best of all time conversation now. He’s incredibly consistent, been at it for 20 years straight, is incredibly talented and is very recognizable
People who put MF DOOM in their top 10 MCs might be inclined to put Billy Woods in the convo. But other listeners wouldn't.
@@traplover6357 I think they don’t put him there simply because of Billys lack of popularity, they just don’t know how good he is

9

10/10

Def not the best but it’s up there, top 15 perhaps

So nice seeing you really show off the Death Grips and Richard Dawson in the background over the last few reviews. Thanks Melon!

Billy Woods is without a doubt the most underrated rapper right now
Genuinely love to see experimental rap in such a great place currently
I had a minor freak out when I realized the chorus on Soft Landing has the same lyrics as Nina Simone - Feeling Good
Crap! I forgot I bought this on Bandcamp before it came out!! Glad you liked it... Going to download it now like the old man I am.
I don't have any issues with the beat on Soft Landing, it's just a mesmerizing track.

i saw billy last year and it seemed like he didnt want to be there at all. it was aweosme 10/10 great show bought tickets again for end of this month on maps tour

Fly like gold on Africans
Cover my tracks with backronyms
If the track slaps, in the back, you can almost hear the black cackling"
and also
"God bless this sweet home, my beloved heart
124 bluestone crouched on thin haunch
While I get dome from the living
Conch fritters crispin' in the kitchen
Grew gaunt in prison
My own warden, celly, and superintendent
Flaunt flagrant disassociation
Dissonant cadence
Free political dissidents from they cages
