    This is a bit difficult for me to form an opinion on at the moment. I do really like it, but it is so lyrically complex (like all earl projects) that I feel like I need to go through them on genius to get a full understanding of the project. I also like how calm and understated most of the beats are, makes for a good chill listen and lets the verses sit front and center. Definitely going to revisit this more than the new Cordae

    honestly I think this might be a top 3 earl album. Although I wasn’t the biggest fan of SRS, this album is basically almost everything I wanted from an earl album. It has an amazing flow and stays consistent, and it also contains some vintage beats that reminds me of SRS (which was one of the things i liked from the project). I’d give it a 9-9.5/10.

I just think the production got in the way of his rapping, but the content in that album was absolutely amazing. But this album the production was beautiful, his verses was Al away on point.

    I feel like Earl has a thought, writes a couple bars about what he’s feeling, gets an alchemist beat and then calls it a day on that track then just slaps it on an album. Half of these tracks seem like snippets more then full songs… seems like they were literally put together in 10 minutes.. there’s no structure to his shit.. most of these “songs” are just whatever to me.. nothing is calling me back because he raps for like 40 seconds on a 1 and and half minute track.. the fuck am i supposed to do with that?
    I actually like Earls writing and the things he says I just wish he expanded more on these ideas.. I love Doris and IDLSIDGO but idk this ain’t it.
    tabula Rasa with Armand Hammer is great I’ll say that. 2010, Visions with Zelooperz and Fire in the Hole are cool. That’s it, over-all it just whatever to me.
    Idk man if you love this type of shit, more power to you!

    Earl Sweatshirt is a good lyricist with great production and insightful themes. But I have to say he has one of the most boring voices in rap, at least in my opinion. Tried to get into his last two albums and stopped after 3 or 4 songs. I wanted to get into his discography given the good word that surrounded it but found his vocals too monotonous.
