he's one of those rappers where i don't catch some lines until years down the road. just like gza. and like ka too, more recently.

i'll definitely be buying the most expensive deluxe edition of the album. (haven't checked the pre-order page yet).

His best work since his first two albums imo.

Love the single. I was hoping he'd go in a similar route he did with the Li(f)e album where he worked with bands and a lot of live insturments, because beat-wise that's the only album I've liked from him from front to back. But his latest mixtape had a lot of good production, so maybe this will too.

BUT FUCK MY ASS, I'M AT WORK AND CAN'T LISTEN TO IT TIL I GET HOME!!!


2886851, Very good

Im not sure it's as good as Li(f)e which was one of my fav albums of 2010 (and my fav sage album), but it's only been three plays. Production is very good (which was always an issue for previous Sage albums before Li(f)e).

"Grace" is intense. And "ID Thieves" has some pretty hard shots at Macklemore. "Make em Purr" "Thank You" "Vonnegut Busy" "Over Under" "Dead Man Float" and "Once Upon a Blue Moon" are all early standouts.
