They sent me the album a couple days ago and its sounding dope. Need more time for it to sink in though, of course. We got two beats on there.

A couple of these producers I was not familiar with but really impressed me. dosg4w, whoever that is, killed Post Haste, The Good Die and Marooned. The beat on Patra is great.

This is a special, special album. I'm guessing Will Bosket and Renaissance Garments are the BSBD beats? If not, props to whoever made em. Several tracks immediately jump out at you, but all the rest seem to have a mystic/abstract feel that give the album a great balance.

BSBD did Renaissance Garments and Nosferatu. Bosket is a Marmaduke. Marmaduke actually has the most beats on here, with 4.

Oh damn, didn't realize he had any beats on here, Marmaduke's so underrated. Where you find the credits at?

My favorites right now are Sunni's Blues and Cloisters, but the whole thing is >>>

On some Right Guard sportstick anything less would be uncivilized-type shit.

The first couple listens all the Marmaduke tracks really stood out- "Frog and Toad are Friends", "Willie Bosket", "New Museum", and "White Lies". I only know of Marmaduke through woods albums, but the guy is a beast. I'm pretty sure I heard the beat for "New Museum" on a car commercial the other day, if so props to Marmaduke for getting that TV money.

Once the lyrics started to kick in, I found new favorites every spin- "Hatchet Job", "Shark Fin Soup", "Duppy", "Where The Wild Things Are", "Renaissance Garments", and "Cloisters" are all fantastic. woods has one liners abound and Elucid is writing Nas-level descriptive raps.

woods last verse on Hatchet is a favorite and his verse on Duppy about the atmosphere surrounding his father's death/funeral is crazy.

This album, the Danny Brown joint, and the Boldy/ALC album are all potential classics to me, been a good month.

New Museum has probably been my favorite for weeks.
