JoHn Muir is indeed a highlight, classic rider anthem with crisp live drums
You gotta admire the man's dedication to the capital "H" meme

i don't know what i think yet, it did sound aimless as i've seen said, but strong, likely a grower
― j., Sunday, 17 July 2016 21:49 (seven years ago) link
I felt like that at first, it is deffo a grower and has a lot of strength in depth.
― calzino, Sunday, 17 July 2016 21:59 (seven years ago) link
good album imo

this sounds great on first listen to me
can't tell if there's anything as good as 'man of the year' or 'collard greens' but there was a huge gap between those 2 and the next best track on oxymoron, this is way more consistent

Yeah this was my feeling as well

Well I'd put "studio" up there but more for bj the Chicago kid
"John Muir" is a serious standout for me

I can't believe how much better than Oxymoron this is, replace THat Part with the Black Hippy remix and drop the (sadly ignorable) Miguel collab and it's even better

amazing video

Amazing track as well, it sits easily amongst his finest work

the (sadly ignorable) Miguel collab
oh that's why that guy seemed so familiar
― j., Wednesday, 14 September 2016 01:58 (seven years ago) link
um, album of the year?
― gospodin simmel, Saturday, 12 November 2016 17:42 (seven years ago) link
I can't believe how much better than Oxymoron this is
is it possible that oxymoron is not as bad as it seemed
― j., Thursday, 1 March 2018 15:26 (six years ago) link
I like all his last 3 albums, none of them are perfect but they are still totally ace.
― calzino, Thursday, 1 March 2018 15:32 (six years ago) link
blank face is kinda perfect to me
― gospodin simmel, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:02 (six years ago) link
Was just blasting out JoHn Muir and thinking: another new Schoolboy Q alb badly needed.
― calzino, Thursday, 30 August 2018 21:27 (five years ago) link
How popular is he? I really like him but I feel like he ain't talked about as much as A$AP Rocky or anyone from the mumble crew.

new album out today--it felt like there was a weird lack of hype for this one, idk why.
― mourning joe (voodoo chili), Friday, 26 April 2019 14:52 (five years ago) link
gave it a full listen this morning. feels low-stakes and fragmented compared to Blank Face. some good moments and cool production but weirdly unambitious. some grating hooks, too.
― Simon H., Friday, 26 April 2019 14:57 (five years ago) link
yeah, i figured from the pre-released tracks that it wouldn't be as ambitious or eclectic as blank face, but whatever, every artist reserves the right to make minor works every once in a while.
― mourning joe (voodoo chili), Friday, 26 April 2019 14:58 (five years ago) link
I don't think he's charming enough to coast through bang average material or something. what a disappointment :(
― calzino, Friday, 26 April 2019 15:17 (five years ago) link
yeah, this is pretty listless, with a couple exceptions (5200, Numb Numb Juice, maybe the Cudi collab).
