    It still baffles me how nobody discusses it. Oh well, I love hidden gems

    Because she was blackballed, plus being sexually harassed by Talib Kweli didn't help either.

    Grew up listening to this album and her collaborations with Talib Kweli so it was really sad how their relation has ended up lately

    Sick ass industry man. I think Mary j blidge blackballed some talented singer too. It’s crazy how much talent just gets swept under the rug because of petty s***

    I’d say it’s in great territory but glad you liked nonetheless

    Ngl, I feel rude for saying that. I just re-listened to Golden Boys rn and it's still gold.

    What do you guys think of this album? It’s not discussed very often in music circles and frankly I think it is one of the most underrated albums of all time. Straight timeless music here. Also no album sounds like this.

    If you’ve never heard this album, then take a listen. It’s only 40 mins long. Matterfact, you WILL listen. I’m not giving you the option. You open thread, you must listen.

    cosign on this he has two of the greatest debut’s of all time. he was part of the duo debut “esthero” (before she went solo) he also co-produced weekend’s early material on House of Balloons . amazing musician and arranger as well. 😎he also produced “ the ride” on Take Care.

    so clean :

    interesting guitar sounds he plays. i think he uses a baritone guitar or something like that . very unique guitar sounds - i guess he could pitch the speed. 🤔

    his use of samples and instrumentation put him in the hall of fame like portishead 😳

    very strange how rarely no one else called him to produce a project after Res. Maybe he intimidated a lot artists or owning a recording studio made him produce less.

    in any event, one of the greats.

    his sample of the bell sound with that trumpet and guitar motif with that laughter sample on this with esthero’s vocal melody. masterful 😳
