Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking a rare turn behind the microphone, the legendary hip-hop producer offers a brilliantly concise, heavily jazz-inflected solo outing. While the impeccably constructed, drumless sample loops and rhythmic intricacies remain the primary focus, his deeply introspective and occasionally boastful lyrical contributions are surprisingly sharp. It is a sophisticated, highly articulate triumph of modern underground rap.
