I’m pleasantly surprised at the Seafood Sam love in here

And damn you got it at AOTY what’s your thoughts?

Almighty So 2 x10

King needs to release this on CD

I mean I loved it. I love the distinct, regional Long Beach sound to it and he also brings some different flavors to it. It’s smooth and eclectic while still have a good sonic cohesiveness. Too many good tracks on here too. Saylo, Can’t Take The Hood To Heaven, Cowboy Leather, Pearly Gates Playlist, Bullets From A Butterfly, Grandma Once Said are all like perfect songs. The whole thing is just an amazingly crafted album. Wish he got more attention.

it is really slept on, his voice is like butter over those beats, wouldn’t even call them beats it’s like instrumentation

add brat and yes
