Fruitonica

I've been listening to The Cool again and it's getting a new lease on life, I'm really loving this album, whereas I just liked it when I first got it. He's easily the best thing to appear in mainstream hip hop for a long time.

This inspired me to grab Food and Liquor, which is a good album, but to me the production sounds very generic and I can really hear Kanye's stamp all over it, even the songs he didn't produce still remind me of his style.

I'm glad that he started moving away from that in The Cool, a more low key approach, bringing in quite a few classical elements and creating an overall more diverse sound.

I think that's another assumption, he really isn't a club rapper at all, even less so than on his first album. Looking through the cool I can't find anything that really resembles a dance track.
