Bend we don't break

See The Bends is just straight up an amazing song and I can tell you why. The swing of them drums and the strings/vocal sample/the way Earl’s flowing. The Mint I can’t say the same about yet all the parts in that song come together to create this energy that feels so familiar yet unknown to me. I’m getting abstract with it so I’ll stop at that

nah bruh this resonates with me. SRS dropped a weird time in my life. that whole autumn was strange. the mint always brings me right back. or close to it. I remember when it dropped.

his energy in this clip

You can see him charge up in the beginning fr

Earl describing The People Could Fly as a "mayoral campaign" tonally is such a hilarious comment because it accurately describes how I feel about the style/vibe of a lot of the rappers in that circle. Not necessarily a bad thing. MIKE is a great example of that style imo

chipped teeth huh

i remember some vid of earl opening a bottle with his teeth so its no surprise

its wild just seeing this guy mature and speak grown s*** for 20 minutes straight

like there's an intrinsic disconnect for me where I'm reflecting my own past 10 years upon lmao

Sick just has the unfortunate distinction of following an artist's legitimate breakthrough

not calling it his magnum opus, but 2015's project was like "this man is ready is to get running, he looks like he's ready" and SRS was "he's gone and he's not being caught". Its hard to follow up a landmark

I feel like this song was supposed to be on feet of clay or at the very least recorded during that era because he says “Babylon dreams, Daniel can you solve em? How you sleep knowing Rome is crumbling”

This nigga needs to do something with his facial hair bad dude ugly as f*** watching his and black noise stories killing me his mustache got a mind of its own

Listening to this in dolby atmos just cemented it as my favorite Earl album

its honestly really bad

I know his girl be telling him to get it together it ain’t no way

I HEAR THE TONE OF THE BELL

fr

I would really like if the two beats Al played in this video ended up on the Earl x Al album, although I doubt it

that reminds me did anyone end up finding the project they put out on YouTube?

Yesssss I found it last Sunday

This s*** barely moved 500000 units?

How many units did Sick move fw?

Old Friend still insane, what a great intro

And the transition into 2010 is very good

laughed irl at this u phrased this reply perfectly lmao
