Black Though more comfortable revealing more of himself.

One consistent thing is BT is dope but more technical than emotional or personal. Of course there have been exceptions over the years, but it pretty much hold true. But listening to this newer work, I get a better feeling for his mindstate, struggles, and emotions, while sacrificing none of the technicality.

The simplicity/repetition of the beats really gives room for the lyrics to shine. Whenever Thought stops rapping, you hear how much of the energy is coming from him and the the beats. Works here. This is dope listening.
