    I’m always holding out hope for more of the genius heard on Doris but it’s unfortunately absent on Feet Of Clay. [Jan 2020, p.74]

    Deadly samey and unadorned. Even Earl's fan won't ever remember this album existed.

Most of his stuff has come to be more of a lyrical artistic vibe. This album is completely that and I am not sure if it can really be considered as "Hip-Hop" or "Rap". Appealing most likely to the die-hard fans of Earl and anyone who likes good lyricism over terrible beat selection.… Full Review »
