Evidence is dope on the rhymes and beats but Alchemist hasn't been so good in the beat department lately but it's his rapping I don't care for and his voice is even worst; I just hope Alchemist sticks to doing the beats on this and a few hooks but no rap verses.

The impression I get it this is their "group" album, both rhyming. Anything else they've done as Step Brothers has both rapping. My guess is that it'll be heavier on ALC beats too.

... was Covert Coupe to be honest. I felt dissapointed by the Action Bronson projects and hell even the Albert Einstein joint w/ P was a little lack luster.

No, he's not dropping like astronomical bars but in the context of sounding dope, being on beat and having occasional potency, Chocolate Boy Wonda works.

22. "Dunno bout the raps..." In response to Reply # 21
Only caught the 30 sec. each snippets! But beatwise, Ev came thru and crushed... With the Dilated joint, Rakaa solo joint, the Apathy joint and these, Im def. hopin for a prod. duties split on the Stepbrothers thing...
Some Delilah, Love & War vibes from Ev - Some Red Carpet, Chase The Clouds Away vibes from ALC. Mix those styles and youd have a serious album.

In an interview earlier this year or late last, Ev says he produced one beat on SB,. The rest, Alc.
Im sure itll be dope anyways, ALCs still an amazing beatmaker even tho he did venture a bit far away from what made me dig his work in the 1st place...

dude just sounds like he's trying too hard to posture whenever he raps. even when his bars are okay, his flow/approach just puts me off. his beats, however, have been impressive. i dig his diversity/experimentation with layered samples. his drums have really improved from those plodding patterns he used back day (those beats were still good though).
ev though, i think dude can really rap. some may disagree, but his flow/lyrics have improved greatly since the dilated peoples days. also, he's an ill fucking producer who knows how to craft a sound for a project.
definitely will look out for this project, but hoping i don't hear too many 'chemistry verses.

Less then a month away and no real promo, pre-order or any lead up. Usually Rhymesayers give a pretty big push, Fifth Element exclusive pre-order, etc., and there's none of that. I hope I'm wrong as I'm really looking forward to it but I feel like we'll have to wait a bit longer.
