This s*** a pet peeve for me tbh. I get the same way about Solace I hate when people call it a song. Earl told us what they were but they rather view it their own way

I think he censors himself to an extent out of fear of being black balled and stuff

pain

heart shattering

Give it to you straight no frills

Black Noi$e is the chosen one

woah. this concept sounds somewhat similar to lupe drogas wave album

some of earls best portrait photos in that recent interview

Idek why this bothered me so bad feels almost like second hand embarrassment for the writer

The writer called Sick! His best album

I don't think he would be too p**** to talk about it he's always been fairly unafraid to say things, genuinely don't think he's that serious about it so far, but sympathetic to more radical positions for sure

Yeah that sounds about right. Also, in a similar vein I think people really have to give this man more time and grace, he’s dealt with a lot of trauma, some of which we might not even know about, but it’s good he seems happier

Ready for some dope raps.

Excerpt: On one track, Earl namechecks his “uncle Fela.” A few tracks later, he’s rapping over a burbling loop of triumphal horns that might’ve been looped from a Fela Kuti records. (As I’m writing this, the album credits aren’t yet available, but my gut tells me that’s a Fela sample.) Album closer “Fire In The Hole” has bluesy guitar filigrees and soft, plangent piano; it’s the rare moment on this very short album where Earl allows himself to fade into the background and let the song ride without him.

Sounds like the unreleased song here could be Fire in the Hole

It’s gotta be. Song sounds great

interview now in OP too!

'bury me in a bowl of soup'

Nigerian wallet made out of snake

“Fire leaving out the whole deep breathing only made me broke” has to be

Need that on this album

Doubt it

The live performance so fire

Album version may be different so im suspending my expectations

So you’re saying there’s a chance
