Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reuniting for their third full-length collaboration, the Detroit rapper and legendary producer deliver an icy, cinematic masterclass in modern street rap. The Alchemist provides a gorgeous tapestry of obscure prog-rock and soul samples, completely avoiding heavy drums to leave room for James's famously lethargic, deadpan delivery. The chilling juxtaposition between the lush production and the grim, hyper-detailed lyrical realities cemented it as a genre standout.
