    The madness method rampant these days, I let the panic pass me
    Featherweight, my heart was straight despite baggage
    Asymptomatic but I get sicker, the delays faster, faster
    Practicing practice in what I preach, keep pace
    The calcium on my teeth fade
    The streets are blazed with the anger, complacency and deceit create
    Ice sheet break, I couldn't weak, wait
    All I could say to the times I couldn't freeze frame, bleak fate
    You got so much to bleed to clean slate (I've got so much)
    The bag of tricks in my sleeve breaks
    Southpaw under the North Star, forcing all the league changes
    Don't sleep baby

    This is soooooooo ill man.. this might be one of his nicest verses.. so many internal rhymes and the pockets he weaves in and out of to make words rhyme even more is just brilliant.. nobody does it like Earl, poetry and lyricism at its finest

    I'm saying, this verse is insane

    The fact that Tabula Rasa was initially on the album he lost/scrapped means that that album would have been the best album we’d ever have heard

    I find it really hard to believe ALL of it was deleted man. Like really? All of it? S*** like black emperor and freddie Krueger has to be somewhere, even stuff like uneasy steps. Idk I’m gonna hope for another drop that hopefully isn’t in 2-3 years but I doubt it too. Still love sick tho s***s been the only thing I’ve listened to all week

    No he said majority of it was lost not the whole thing. Tabula Rasa and Old Friend are just two of the ones from it that he included on the new album. Homebound and Black emperor are also from that album and he’s performed them as recent as late last year so they could still drop. I’m thinking joints like Underworld, Freddie Kruger and Alone are some of the ones that are gone tho

    Ahh I see. Then yeah that album would’ve been f***ing insane lmao, but I absolutely respect him going in a different direction with sick

    tabula rasa song of the f***ing year

  • Jan 23, 2022

    “Only two songs from those earlier sessions - ‘Old Friend’ and ‘Tabula Rasa’ - made it onto this album, after “supremely bad decision making" caused the computer containing the work to be lost”

    stg if that’s why we never got whiplash it’s gonna keep me up tonight
