    This man has an incredible catalog, wow, and this album is near the top of his many achievements in his life, exceptional in al areas, from musicality to delivery, and especially in complexity. This album takes several listens to unravel entirely and will give continued gems for years to come.

    Oddisee delivers again, even if his project feels samey in relation to his past albums and safe from a conscious rap standpoint. What is perhaps hoped to be controversial by Oddisee here comes off diluted and largely digestible. The expressed opinions may seem to be mainly from an Oddisee platform and not firstly a humankind platform.

    As seen in other reviews. this is more conscious, to the point music. composed with instruments instead of computer generated sounds, and a jazz, blues vibe. this is not your average rap album. something to enjoy and a unique piece.

    A modern classic !!
    Oddisees follow up to Them Good Fight’ album back from 2015, was 3 years worth the wait ?
    In my eyes yes! The lyrics are very self aware about the world we live in and how people are in this world. Favourite tracks -Things Has a catchy beat and very good lyrics -Hold it back Talks about gender equality and the hook reminds us to say what we need to say -Like really This    A modern classic !!

    This is the best on the album as it talks about what we all do wrong. Oddisees flow is insane and raps quite fast    … Expand

    It's the depth of lyricism that continues to impress, months after release.

    A focused beam of hip-hop soul that rattles loudly in our present political moment.

    Oddisee's all-round strengths as producer, mixer, and lyricist make for a more cohesive record, allowing for his personality and message to shine that much brighter.
