Finished reading the 33 1/3 on this a few days ago, Walasia doesn’t get enough credit
One of the greatest rap records ever
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone
After you who's last, it's Doom, he's the worst known
Masterpiece, one of a kind atmosphere, one of those records with a whole universe inside it

I really love how idiosyncratic this album is.
It's one of those albums that actually sounds very peculiar and distinctive even for underground standards.
The fact that it has no hooks, has such a diverse array of sampled beats, has songs that are just straight up trippy/left field, has serious songs, and has songs where Doom's just flexing his lyrical ability just makes it a unique listening experience that has a funny way of sticking with you even if you didn't f*** with it initially.
My favorite songs are Fancy Clown, Strange Ways, Meat Grinder, Rhinestone Cowboy, and Bistro.
The moment I heard this for the first time I had to run it back and once I heard it again I had to run it back and back. This s*** is a classic and one of my top 10 albums
