Ab-Soul's "DWTW" album 12.09.16

He spazzed all over this album..Occult symbolism hidden in every verse..He took complex subjects and mixed it with entertaining ignorance..Not quite sure if he will break mainstream barriers with DWTW but you can rest assured that his core audience is very happy

Its a different animal than control system

It almost feels scatteredbrained..Ppl have to stop comparing artists to their past works and learn to enjoy their present projects for what they are
 
I fucked with "Beat the case" "Evil Genius" "Wifey vs Wifi" and the 2nd half of "God's a girl" , outside of those 4 the album is meh.
 
Eh, the beat switch on God's a Girl pissed me off. That first part was dope but waaaaaay too short. And I agree with @EyeofAsaru about the album sounding scatterbrained.

I checked the last few pages and didn't see it so sorry if I missed it.... Any reason it's not on Tidal yet?

I listened to it on Tidal lol

Do you have regular or Hifi subscription? I saw some tweets saying it's available on Hifi already but no mention of regular. If so I think thats bs that Hifi gets things earlier. Just checked again and still not on there for me

I have "premium" not sure if that's "hifi" or not. This is what the front page looks like for me

straight bs... Got the J Cole though and never noticed any other things like this on release dates. Maybe Jay making sure Cole getting his stream numbers up since twitter saying absouls album is better lol.... jay is a genius lol... alright thanks anyway
 


it was an interesting first listen.

i liked a good handful of joints. there were a couple of times where i was like "what the fuck is this nigga talking about" in a "is this nigga just saying shit to SOUND a certain way" way. he says shit that would sound smart to idiots.

that said, i'm going to keep it in rotation.

my favorite tracks on first listen are:

Threatening Nature

God's a Girl

Now You Know

Lonely Soul
