IN

and also i feel like earl bit slums

that always rubbed me the wrong way

U probably wouldnt know slums if it wasnt for earl

Only one song from SRS was recorded after his father passed
He just matured in his tone, it's like instead of spilling it out he takes a step back and describes what he sees
It's almost as if he became the narrator, as opposed to the protagonist in solace

There is a significant difference between biting and collaborating.

And everyone Slums-adjacent has spoken about the huge influence Earl's work had on them. Earl was supporting MIKE before MGBYH was even out. Why turn this into a negative.

i mean that's probably
true for the average listener

but not for most people who care
even a little bit about rap like we do

lol

i'm surprised more people
haven't called him out on it tbh

i know the slums were
inspired by earl (who wouldn't be)

which is why i find it puzzling
that earl then bit their style

when he performs live he uses his voice...

so i don't get why he doesn't just record that way

niggas wouldn't hate on him if he
just put a lil more energy into his raps imo

at the end of the day he just raps on beats

Looks like zelooperz did the artwork

need a feature

oh word ? I'm adding Easter Sunday in the OP then

All the songs on SRS aside from riot and peanut were recorded and finished before his dad died.

I don't hate SRS or FOC, but I definitely agree with you that he peaked around the Solace/Wind In My Sails era. Hoping he does get back on slightly more traditional beats so people can realize he's the best out RN

I'm speculating a bit, but he also reposted it on Instagram.

He's been painting a lot lately and I wouldn't be surprised knowing their relationship

I could never get into Wind in my Sails because of the original by Captain Murphy
This version tho >>>>

Some guy in this thread said he talked to the artist

never mind then!

SRS is classic for me.

Really looking forward to this

Very in

IN with Boldy

Any chance it’s an album full of these guys

What the hell does the cover even mean i wonder

SRS is a classic but besides that I’ve outgrown his slums-influenced output and hope he goes in a new direction

Weren’t they recorded around the same time? I almost consider SRS and solace to be double albums. Solace is rock bottom and SRS is him coming out of that

Let’s get it
