This album is amazing and still like the third best Killer Mike album. Another one for the latepassapedia

i forgot about this "underground atlanta" thing -- my interest is perked retroactively
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:00 (fourteen years ago)
this album is better than big boi's, i'll say that much
nah prefer Big Boi's, only because BB has the gift for picking weird sounds and giving T.I. a better moment to shine.

that underground atlanta comp mike did was TERRIBLE. really bad if i remember right
― littledotheyknow (D-40), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:15 (fourteen years ago)
ha, really? shit.
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:16 (fourteen years ago)
Huh, weird on Spotify desktop the real album shows up, but only the clean version shows up on my phone. Unless I'm doing something wrong, which I probably am.

it was kind of whatever iirc - good pill song and a couple other ok joints but other than that it sucked
― twittering spinster (k3vin k.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:38 (fourteen years ago)
also iirc was like 30 songs?
oh ha what d-40 said
this album is a banger
― Snowqueen's Icedragon (crüt), Thursday, 31 May 2012 23:40 (fourteen years ago)
Bit more of a chitty chitty bang bang. Especially next to Schoolboy Q who is exceptional.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Friday, 1 June 2012 00:08 (fourteen years ago)
you are trolling me.
― Snowqueen's Icedragon (crüt), Friday, 1 June 2012 01:35 (fourteen years ago)
Not at all. I just don't like the album that much, no need to take it personal.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Friday, 1 June 2012 01:47 (fourteen years ago)
apparently his next album is gonna be produced by burn one. should be dope.

nice

didn't think to check if there was a thread; been loving this since it dropped and the single is a MONSTERwith a very Driver influenced zombie video that i can pass onbut likely track o' the year material; best bun b feature i've heard in forever

New video for Big Beast is pretty cool and very NSFW

oh man, that video.

album gets better with each listen
― President Keyes, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 00:55 (thirteen years ago)
It's really good, but while half of it feels natural, another half feels like producer + MC. I've been obsessed with Mike since I first heard him. My ranking:
1. Pl3dge2. pledge 13. rap music4. ghetto extraordinary5. pledge 26. monster
― paulhw, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 01:11 (thirteen years ago)
kinda need to see this live i think

i think the last two tracks are amazing.
― pvmic bellvm (goole), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 03:00 (thirteen years ago)
The whole album is impressive, but I think the back half is stronger.
― to welcome jer.fairall, pie is served. (jer.fairall), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 03:13 (thirteen years ago)
just getting around to hearing this. awesome stuff.
― alpine static, Wednesday, 15 August 2012 21:01 (thirteen years ago)
maybe my fave album this year

"Willie Burke Sherwood" is my jam

I've deliberately avoided everything with El-P's name on since someone on ILM conned me into buying 'Fantastic Damage' 10 years ago and while I like this a lot there's something profoundly unfunky about most of the beats here. Obviously Mike himself slays and the production makes up for its clunkiness with sheer force but in practice I don't really want to go back to it that much.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:25 (thirteen years ago)
it is kinda of cramped
― goole, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:26 (thirteen years ago)
it had really rapid diminishing returns for me, was initially really into it but already could not care less
― lex pretend, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
'kinda of' ha whoops
― goole, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
i think this record is pretty inconsistent & wish i'd read what felt like a very honest piece on it because it also has some great songs

I will stand up for everything but Anywhere but Here
― "Batshit crazy," the foam clog tycoon said. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 August 2012 17:39 (thirteen years ago)
"Jojo's Chillin" for me.

aka the best song on the record

It's an impressive record that's short on replay value.
― Vagelis (The Reverend), Thursday, 16 August 2012 18:41 (thirteen years ago)
Yeah. I listened to it a lot for a couple of weeks, haven't felt any need to play it ever since.
― Tuomas, Friday, 17 August 2012 10:34 (thirteen years ago)
i have similar feelings about it - something about the beats is just exhausting, too trebly, too harsh for headphones
