    Meh. Why do artists go rant at people who dont like their stuff? Its embarassing, just like this album.
    The argument that 'you didnt like it cuz you dont understand it' is soo lame because; anyone who made a piece of art can bark at people saying you dont like it cuz you dont understand it, like the artist himself did. Grow a spine

    The House Is Burning does exactly what it’s intended to do, it allows Rashad to dust off the cobwebs going back to the southern sound he so deeply admires, while also proving to listeners he hasn’t lost a step.

    While THIB is a back-to-front vibe and an intriguing experiment for Zay's mellowed-out sound, it's one that's still negotiating its own limits.

    He sounds freer than ever. ‘The House Is Burning’ subverts expectations. ... Rashad’s music is like a sonic encyclopaedia of Southern rap reference points.
