yeah I did, fake ghost knows what's up

it seemed like the album was about these two dudes getting to the top of their field and turning around and wondering what happened to everyone else. it's lonely at the top concept. I think it got kinda muddled though, and this sasha frere-jones character seems to have gotten it right when she says they like each other too much to really push each other. plus someone fucked up and told swizz where they were recording and he snuck his ass in, so that didn't help

are you talking about an nyt review of the album or something?

i mgiht come in here and write an essay after a couple more listens.

edit: i guess you mean a review in the new yorker (should have read more carefully).

I can feel that. Overall though, great release imo.

I'm glad a lot of people are feeling his shit. I like him a lot. I guess dude's pretty polarizing, but that's the same shit that's making him stand out.

I've noticed a lot of interaction between a lot of the rappers in this thread (MA, Action, ASAP, Danny, etc) on Twitter and it's actually really cool to see.
