there's also a great skit about being asked to rap by a fan out in public that made me chuckle.
He makes his own instrumentals. This album is a great progression for him imo because in his old stuff, his flow got bogged down by strained wordiness (and I say that as a person who loves wordiness). He really seems to have improved his emceeing here.

This definitely lived up to my hype that I had for it. There are like one or two tracks that are kind of meh that I skip over every time but the majority of it is hot ****.

it's definitely been one of the stand-out hip-hop projects early on in the year.

Might be conveniently misremembering things, but did 2016 take this long to take off in terms of consistently amazing music? I feel like this year is lackluster in comparison so far.

nah I think 2016 was just a remarkable year. this year has been ok but it definitely fails to stand up to the last.

I didn't realize he finally had a full album out. I have to check that out. I like the songs I have by him.

I think rostasi might've posted this in another thread a while ago. Puts me in the mood to head down to the nearest strip joint/dive bar and knock back a few cold ones while the strippers do their thing as the music plays.

I can also imagine John Waters using some of these tunes in one (or more) of his movies.

I feel like Psy-Fi is either a pasty, fat, white guy or Lando Calrissian.

Nope, didn't heard about this one. However, is this album release yet?
