This is my AOTY. MIKE went 24/24.
Each track is unique and equally heartfelt, lyrics are straight poetry, and there's variety but still within a consistent theme.
I've listened to this album front to back at least 50 times since it was released.
Can't wait to hear it live in May.

MIKE has become my favorite hip hop artist this past year. I was having a hard time finding new hip hop that I really liked every element from production, lyricism, delivery, etc. When first hearing MIKE, instantly that feeling was quelled. His release, Tears of Joy was my introduction and it was on repeat most of last winter. Weight of the World came out at the beginning of the summer and feels a lot heavier to me. Maybe it’s just the timing and everything going on, but it’s felt much more welcoming recently.

had a hard time falling asleep last night, so i made some sleepytime tea (with immune-boosting echinacea!) and managed to finally wind down with the help of MIKE’s latest solo release. his languid delivery has always been a source of comfort for me, and his ability to pack entire lives of emotion into a handful of bars is paralleled only by frequent collaborator, earl sweatshirt. it’s one of his best works, but “snake charm” is a highlight for me :)
