This one I'm not feeling but don't hate, I think I'll have to take it within a first more listens. If anything I appreciate that The Roots make music for repeat listening. Rising Down is the only album that I'm not able to listen to fully since their Def Jam switch. Not for everyone but does anyone thing that they're trying to get a radio hit with this one. I think they know that train is long gone and that they're really just making music to build their legacy as one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the soundscan era. They've definitely gotten to the top tier of hip hop discographies imo
