2685080, Literally nothing about the album warranted high levels of attention

Beautiful album, like 5 tracks are little 1 minute instrumntation sesssions. It's what, like 7 actual songs on there?

I love this shit

Lets be real though, this is NOT the kind of album that's built for sales or attention. Hell most Roots albums have that one catchy poppy/radio type joint, and that was nowhere on this one. There's no "Here I Come" or "The Seed" or "Rising Up" or anything remotely in that vein.

Great album, but not built for the kind of attention you want for it.
If you're jaded by a tepid response to a great album that made zero attempt at garnering that sort of attention, I dunno what to tell you
