This album is amazing and still like the third best Killer Mike album. Another one for the latepassapedia

i forgot about this "underground atlanta" thing -- my interest is perked retroactively
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:00 (twelve years ago) link
this album is better than big boi's, i'll say that much
nah prefer Big Boi's, only because BB has the gift for picking weird sounds and giving T.I. a better moment to shine.

that underground atlanta comp mike did was TERRIBLE. really bad if i remember right

Huh, weird on Spotify desktop the real album shows up, but only the clean version shows up on my phone. Unless I'm doing something wrong, which I probably am.

it was kind of whatever iirc - good pill song and a couple other ok joints but other than that it sucked
― twittering spinster (k3vin k.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:38 (twelve years ago) link
also iirc was like 30 songs?
oh ha what d-40 said
this album is a banger

Bit more of a chitty chitty bang bang. Especially next to Schoolboy Q who is exceptional.

you are trolling me.
― Snowqueen's Icedragon (crüt), Friday, 1 June 2012 01:35 (twelve years ago) link
Not at all. I just don't like the album that much, no need to take it personal.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Friday, 1 June 2012 01:47 (twelve years ago) link
apparently his next album is gonna be produced by burn one. should be dope.

didn't think to check if there was a thread; been loving this since it dropped and the single is a MONSTERwith a very Driver influenced zombie video that i can pass onbut likely track o' the year material; best bun b feature i've heard in forever

It's really good, but while half of it feels natural, another half feels like producer + MC. I've been obsessed with Mike since I first heard him. My ranking:
1. Pl3dge2. pledge 13. rap music4. ghetto extraordinary5. pledge 26. monster

kinda need to see this live i think

The whole album is impressive, but I think the back half is stronger.

I've deliberately avoided everything with El-P's name on since someone on ILM conned me into buying 'Fantastic Damage' 10 years ago and while I like this a lot there's something profoundly unfunky about most of the beats here. Obviously Mike himself slays and the production makes up for its clunkiness with sheer force but in practice I don't really want to go back to it that much.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:25 (eleven years ago) link
it is kinda of cramped
― goole, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:26 (eleven years ago) link
it had really rapid diminishing returns for me, was initially really into it but already could not care less

'kinda of' ha whoops

i think this record is pretty inconsistent & wish i'd read what felt like a very honest piece on it because it also has some great songs

It's an impressive record that's short on replay value.

Yeah. I listened to it a lot for a couple of weeks, haven't felt any need to play it ever since.
