    The length was definitely something I was worried about. By the end, I decided that since this was a Beatles record, there was a chance that some of the songs would be more well known, so it wouldn't be as bad as going into an album completely blind. From now on, my picks won't get near this in length though, I promise.

    After listening to your album I went ahead and downloaded their compilation album 1. Total casual move, I know. Solid compilation though. A welcome addition to the music collection.

    Finally found a playlist to catch me up on what the youth’s been listening to.

    Clipse - h--- Hath No Fury
    First off, WHY DOES THE BOLD OPTION STILL s--- SO BAD ON DESKTOP :emoji_sob::emoji_sob::emoji_sob::emoji_sob:

    Let God Sort 'Em Out comes out next month, so I've been in a Push kick recently. I've had Lord Willin', Daytona,, and It's Almost Dry on repeat for the past few weeks, so the opportunity to revisit Clipse's magnum opus was timed perfectly.

    h--- Hath No Fury shows Push, Malice, and Pharell at the top of their game (Apparently Chad Hugo didn't work on this album at all, which is surprising). They had dropped some mixtape in the meantime, but it's crazy to think that it took 4 years to get a proper second album from the duo.

    Push and Malice sound f---ing vicious on this album man. Push is probably the most famous member of the two at this point, but Malice steals the show on tracks like "Wamp Wamp", "Dirty Money" and "Nightmares". Pusha absolutely kills every single one of his verses too, and his hooks on "Momma I'm So Sorry", "Mr. Me Too", and ""Ain't Cha" are out of this world. I've said this about Jay-Z before, but part of what makes Clipse so great for me is the coolness. Pusha and Malice sound so fly on this record, that I might as well be watching an episode of Miami Vice.

    I wanna give a special spotlight to "Nightmares" which has always been my favorite song off the project. To follow up 11 tracks of hard hitting coke rap, with a soulful record R&B record about paranoia that features Bilal, is a risky choice, but it pulls it off expertly.

    The production on this record always hits hard, but the beats to songs like "Ride Around Shining" and "Trill" especially stood out this time. Pharell better be in his bag again on LGSEM, I swear. In a lot of ways, this album feels like a spiritual successor to Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (which was the coke rap record I was teasing last week btw!), and it's a bonafide classic.

    Big thanks to @Justin Trudeau for the pick. I can't wait for their next project man.
    FAVORITES: Every track, but especially Momma I'm So Sorry, Dirty Money, Ain't Cha, Nightmares
