things fall apart was the first time i paid attention to them. i might have heard some of their stuff before but didnt know it.

the song is so beautiful. its kind of a culmination of their work up to things fall apart. they mastered that sound right there.

song gives me the feels every time.

then double trouble hits. just when i think aint sayin nothin new is what all hiphop needs to sound like you get this ode to old school hiphop that sounds fresh. thought and mos just going back forth. yes!!! i remember thinking why isnt there more stuff that sounds like this?????

this is hiphop!!

the transition into the love of my life is just too perfect. the love of my life is probably top 5 song of all time to me. when i first heard it i couldnt comprehend that people still made music with so much care and it sounded so new and it was hiphop? i did not know hiphop could sound this beautiful.

i need to find a way to get these three songs to play together all the time lol
