    wow without even deep diving into the lyrics yet, this is really GOOD good wow. Like on my fifth listen this already sounds like a future classic to me. Such a cohesive and consistent listen. I admit I didn't get the Stonefruit hype at first, but Elucid's singing is finally gelling with me (I actually liked God's Feet from my first listen tho).

    The beat transitions from Falling Sky to Wishing Bad to Chicharonnes are insane, all thoughout the progressions are so satisfying. That's what rly made me realize this is special

    Yeah Alc can transition songs like a mf

    And Elucid’s singing is dope to me. Stonefruit feels like more than a rap song. God’s Feet I also love, so eerie.

    Yeah the more I have sat with it, the more convinced I am that woods' verse on Stonefruit is about his mother. And one of his very best.

    Need that lyric book asap to confirm if Grace is capitalised or not.

    Baking soda, Foucault and Joseph Conrad texts in the background

    This guy’s a French professor who reviews a lot of good rap records. Has a really interesting academic perspective on a lot of it and gets pretty granular in his discussions.

    @DwindlingSun

    Same guy who did a very impressive/extensive close reading and review of bob’s son, @Lit

    i liked his focus on the lyrics with bob's son, watching this later

    Went on a long drive yesterday and finally got time to give this project a true listen. Absolute fire. Had no choice but to run that s*** back a few times Will obviously take some time to dissect this, but that’s half the fun when it comes to an AH release. Now we wait for the vinyls to arrive..
