The Healing Component by
Mick Jenkins
ah man I think im about ready to pull the plug on me ever loving this one. Such high hopes as
The Water[s] is one of my favorite hip hop projects (and I dig most of his other mixtapes more than this as well). This isn't a bad album by any means (certain tracks still get decent playlist time from me), but god the interludes are lame as hell, and hes traded in his laid-back "f
uck it" bite for some hippy level consciousness. Conceptually
The Water[s] was smart without being overwrought and ~flowed~ perfectly;
The Healing Component's main issue is that it's trying too damn hard to be meaningful.
Anyway. Listen to
The Water[s] please and thank you.
