This is a sick record. Sabzi is a beast and Geologic doesn't sound like he belongs on Def Poetry Jam anymore. What's good Tran?

This was the worst thing I've heard between Common Market and Blue Scholars... pretentious production and boring lyrics.

@ CTRX bigging this album up, but giving it a 6 at Rapreviews.
This is my album of the year, it's what I bump mostly in the whip. Sabzi is on another level.

Damn! I've been sleeping!!!!!!!!!
Just ordered the CD + digital download from the Blue Scholars site. Looking forward to some new tunes. I've been so preoccupied with disc golf this year so far, I've barely made time to search and buy new music....just been bumping old school shit lately.

If this is what you're saying about it, I know I'll like it. lol
Gotta laugh since it's how I feel about so much of the music you praise.

Nice. I actually see it just recently dropped. So I guess I haven't slept too long. Which is good.
You know how I feel about Sabzi. Really looking forward to his work...

Also, can someone tell me how beats/production can be "pretentious"? I'm lost here...

You only been sleeping about three weeks or so, they dropped the digital version early to those who pledged. Hussein, Cinemetropolis, Tommy Chong, Anna Karina, George Jackson, Rani Mukerji, just soo many bangers on here. Hussein is probably my favorite track, that beat is killer.

indeed...
Once the beat started on the first song, Cinemetropolis, I knew I was in for a treat.

I'm trying to think of another way to explain what I'm hearing, and I'm not coming up with much else.
It just seems like Sabzi really felt he was making something awe-inspiring and amazing, but to me it's just so-so at best.
I hear what you're saying, Alan. Sometimes we can safely use each others' opinions in a paradoxical manner.
I'd like to clarify that I'm not trying to insult anyone or anyone else's taste. I can only give my opinion on it.

Pearl Jam is a classic case of pretention in music... Steely Dan... and now Sabzi.
