15. "24 minutes of raw dusty loops and bars" In response to In response to 0
this guy's patterns are unreal. he's definitely not as wordy as he's been in the past and he's slant rhyming more but i think that gels well with the very naked loops that he's rapping over. dialing it back a little and letting more space in his flows makes his words a little more easier to pick out amidst these dusty and muddy loops. and he's still conversational and presenting full images to the listener while rapping in these long form patterns. AND he's rapping in unconventional time signatures on a few songs. there are occasions when i think no one is better than earl and he causes me to feel that way several times on this album
