It's been a year of by and large very straightforward verses from woods and ELUCID. Dense no doubt, masterful as ever, but pretty grounded nonetheless.
Compared to their output last year it's night and day in terms of accessibility.
If their verses are going over your head or coming off as mumbo jumbo then it's more a critique on your own ability to actively listen and engage with the writing.
I’ve said this the last 2 project rollouts but Head Heavy please
Favorite Earl Sweatshirt track tbh and it’s not even out
only with Earl
"only with earl"
please...
Elucid verse growing on me. Song is fire can’t wait for this project
Better late than never
I'm from where every car foreign and we drive 'em on empty
nah this nigga the truth man 
how could he not be one of the best to bless the mic?
It’s undoubted to be honest
sounds like a Haram session for sure. wonder what sound the album will fall closer towards, this or 2010.
Hopefully 2010
Beat me to it. But for easier readability
Samiyam and Alexander Spit got production on this
Homebound definitely aint on this one
What the f*** I’m so excited for this
I liked the new song but not as much as 2010. 2010 was such a smooth listen with him riding the beat perfectly.
This new one sounds more his SRS stuff which is fine but I was hoping he’d move more away from that stuff for this album.
None of the old songs are gonna be on this one,head heavy will most likely be on "the people can fly"
if the new tape is Sick, what is "the people can fly"

You think it’s still coming and not scrapped?

Agree—this is the most accessible they’ve ever been, to the music’s benefit, imo
However you really can’t blame listeners for letting Mobutu Sese Seko references to go over their heads
For first timers, listening to Armand Hammer is a f***ing challenge
You think it’s still coming and not scrapped?
Yes I do. If you read between the lines of the press release,it seems as if he’s saying that sick makes more sense to drop now because it’s his immediate response to the pandemic and that the album he was working on before all this will drop in future
nah he cut that day n Vegas joint way too short
I wonder if Black Noi$e actually produced it, and we might’ve had a false lead

Yea p sure Earl only talks about projects that are basically finished
Are YOU mfethu??
Indeed I am
