”While simultaneously dispelling one trick pony myths, isn’t he?”

Nice 1

I think SRS might be the least DOOM inspired thing Earl had dropped under until that point lol

Obviously hes very influenced by DOOM but that sound is so different

And lately ion like s*** I been inside on the daily

He was going through a lot for SRS with his dad passing i believe

Pretty sure all of that album was completed by the end of 2017 aside from the last two tracks so I don’t know if his dad passing was a contributing factor to his stylistic switch up. Although I do think he delayed the album because of it

I think you can hear it as early as Moonlight from his debut tape.

kanye had a whole new delivery after CD

Him and Vince on that track was insane

Maybe he knew it would result in his best album

I don’t know if I agree with that. Late Registration got more lyrical, but I wouldn’t say the delivery really switched up.

The big shift was from LR-Grad imo

wym his voice is completely new on LR. on CD he sounded like he was tryna rap in a deep voice

Depression and loss

To be fair,we are missing an album at least in between the two albums just from all the unreleased s*** he was doing inbetween

Ive never thought about this, I’ll have to listen with that in mind next time

he got sent to samoa at like 14 being a bad ass kid and came back to what im sure is an insane amount of fame for a 16 year old

i think IDLS to SRS seems like a major shift (because it was) but in reality it's a kind of delayed maturation that maybe if things had played out differently we would've seen earlier

also it's basically 4 years between IDLS to SRS which is a long ass time in general

solace and deeper involvement with slums

Yeah but I’m mostly fascinated by which point did he fully transition styles

Because he recorded SRS from December 2015-sometime in 2018.

I agree

As I was telling a user earlier, you can hear his delivery from IDLSIDGO on December 24 and Loosie from SRS, assuming those were probably the first 2 tracks recorded for the album.

I definitely prefer the older, faster style

Did you f*** with this track?

Hell yeah

Definitely the closest I think he’s reached to doing the IDLSIDGO style although his voice changed during SRS
