this is is such an upbeat, playful, sometimes silly coming-of-age album. I love de la soul's ability to build a world within their albums. the first time I ever listened to this album, I was vacuuming the house and I felt like I was in a movie lol. I love albums that feel cinematic. this is definitely a body of work that influences my own creativity and storytelling abilities. I love the lore that's woven throughout their work. this album is also a case study in incredible sampling. start ur day tomorrow with this album and I promise you will not regret it !!!
Beautiful album!!!!!! such a bright but warm piano sound! brown butter voice! the album tastes like waffles and burnt coffee and leftover smoke in a cool breeze! I knew Tex Crick from “Peaches and Cream” but nothing else. so enamored about this album gonna listen to his newest tomorrow.
