I don't know how are going to top this. Without exaggeration, this is one of the greatest meeting of the minds ofthis whole SP1200-abusing, dusty record-digging, notebook rhyme-tagging era. arguably at his amoeba genius prime, mixed with the unpredictable stoned aesthetics of ? Kids in Germany are going crazy over this! has always been soft-spoken and classy in their marketing (which I respect them for), but with this they need to pop in some "boo-ya's!" and "fo dat azz's!!!" Silliness aside, I'm here to tell you that this album lives up to the billing, reading like a mesmerizing novel. The inclusion of lyrics (CD version only) is a welcome insightinto the world ofDOOM (no more rewinding!); and Madlib, who sometimes is stretched too thin, steps up to this endeavor with some of his most textural work to date. This is X-factor issue #1, you don't know what the hell will happen. Instead of ruining the story, we'll let the music do the talking; be sure to check"Accordion", "Raid" feat. Medaphoar, "America's Most Blunted" feat. , "Money Folder", "Shadows Of Tomorrow", "Operation Lifesaver AKA Mint Test", "Figaro", "All Caps", "Curls" and "Rhinestone Cowboy". Recommended.
