Mf doom is up to his usual clever rhyme schemes but with the additional confidence of having the backing of Madlib's classic instrumentals and deep cut samples he is elevated to an even higher level of alpha rap.

Madlib's production on this album is all feel-good bangers with a whole lot of chopped and screwed rhythms backed by slick blues drum beats.

MF Doom clearly put his imprint on the production as well, sampling random snippets of vintage cartoons to create additional story archs.

The brevity of the tracks makes the entire album feel like a sample platter, but quality isn't all that diminished. This is a testament to how deep Madlib's collection of music runs.

Enjoyed parts of it, All Caps and Accordion are my favourites. But the songs for me were mostly too short to get into, I think if more of them were a bit longer they'd be more memorable to me.

Pretty good album.

Amazing production, clever bars. A perfect hip hop duo.

A solid hip hop album that is very engaging and stays fresh throughout the whole run time. The flow of the album is great and this makes for a very smooth listen as each song fits together really well. It is also experimental and multi-layered making it enjoyable to revisit as you can find a lot of stuff you missed before such as some genius sample work. Overall, this is a strong hip hop album that is hugely influential and is a must listen due to its importance.

For now some of the best production I heard on an hip-hop album (though Liquid Swords is still the king of productions imo), but the rapping seems to lack passion.
