If you’ve never listened to Aesop Rock, it’ll most likely sound like harsh noise to you the first few listens, but boy does his music reward you the more you listen.
This isn’t background music, listening is WORK- rewarding work. Once your ear gets used to it you’re in for a treat. “Black Snow” is my current favorite on this album.
I recommend patiently making your way through all his work if you’re a rap/poetry/word fan… you will get stuck on specific songs for a while since there is SO much being said in every.single.word.
Best lyricist of our generation and I don’t think anyone disputes that.
And an added bonus- his vast vocabulary will make you smarter as you listen🤓
