it probably is his best project. he is a guy that can rap over basically anything but he sounds perfect over these corroded beats like "cherry raindrops". his weed carriers suck. also, not a lot of rappers (read: no rappers) in 2013 will name a song "noble drew ali". good stuff

He really found his sound on this. Though he paranoid as fuck, he's such a great viseral lyricist: mixes really grimey street shit with clever witicisms and space travel shit. Also love how a lot of the beats sound (as some one above said) corroded but they slap.
Only a couple of listens in but this falls right behind Chance and Tree for me as far as mixtalbums go for 2013.

the story telling, clever and grimey punchlines, imagery, flipping of flows and styles over very progressive and spacey yet boom-bap production makes it one of the most over-looked albums all year.
Kismet and the Zombies Better of Dead are the two best things to come out of NY this year, add UA's Indigoism and Joey's Summer Knights and NY looking pretty damn good IMO as it relates its new/young rappers
