One thing I found listening to it yesterday is that it's not really the type of album that you can fully appreciate while distracted by other things. You need to immerse in that shit and pay close attention to the lyrics. A lot of the bridges and outros didn't make emotional sense without understanding the lyrics.

I love how focused it is. One of those albums where you can tell every sound was chosen to match the greater purpose of the work, but it still sounds incredibly fluid and unforced.

The verses are all amazing. I can't think of a single "wtf?" line. Black Thought's verses sound especially personal, some of his best work.

Hoping to buy this on vinyl soon. Anyone have word on that?
