This album gets little to no appreaciation and I think it's because not too many have heard it. This is an underground classic...one of my favorite albums.
The mc's are slug(atmosphere), dose-one(themselves), Sole, and Alias(now turned producer and part time lyricist).
If You like anticon or atmosphere shit you will definately like this album.
It is a true masterpiece.
Songs to check out:
'The Candle' - has one of the best beats on the album
'June 26th 1988' - beautiful song
'The Scarecrow Speaks' - Probably the best song on the album, definately the best lyrically.(Look Down)
'Rainmen (Controller 7 Remix)'
Here's Sole's Verse on "The Scarecrow Speaks"....ONe of my favourite versus of all time.
Okay everyone
put away your boyish desires
Your buoyant sighs
Your rolling eyes
Your lust for roll and rock
Your lust for getting rocks off with other follies
All your desires for couch and TV
Pick up a book, pick up a shovel
Put down the gun, throw up the fist
Throw intelligent words in this game of conversation
Try a new arrangement
Dollars and sensibility
Intelligence and ability
Eloquence and nobility
Delicatessens
Treat your girl like you treat your TV
How you should use your headphones and positive role models
Try staying home
Stop trying to prove
Stop trying to be, stop trying to do
Just be proof, do, and exist
Go to college
Respect your mother
Look out for your little sister
Respect no one except yourself
Treat all others how you expect in return
Exercise intellect
If you're lackin pretend
Call few people enemies and call fewer people friends
Don't do it for the wealth, do it all for the love
Love everything you do, and do nothing halfheartedly
Be what you speak
Man, never speak on what you be
Even if you're lost, front like you got a plan
It aint that hard, but stand if you're ready to be a man
If that doesnt make you want to get the album, I dont know what will.
And here's a nice line from slug on the same song.
Now be some good little bastards, turn your textbooks to page 7
Where it reads that God got drunk, drove heaven into a tree
Now there's no reasons left for you to continue to breathe
Haha, just joking only trying to see who's listenin
I give this album 10/10 stars.
