    How did working with Q‑Tip change your approach to crafting an album?

    Tip is a person who turns over every stone when it comes to making a song -- he pays very close attention to details and tries out a lot of different things. Me? I just try to catch lightning in a bottle. I’m not rewriting s---. For this album, though, “Theme Song,” for example -- we probably recorded that one over 300 times. And I didn’t get it right until the last week before it was about to go into mastering.

    some review of the album: https://www.theskinny.co.uk/music/reviews/albums/danny-brown-uknowhatimsaying

    Executive-produced by A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip – who Brown credits with pulling him out of writer’s block – and starring a revolving cast, uknowhatimsaying¿ has Brown unable to sit still. Much like his previous record Atrocity Exhibition, moving from one mind-boggling canvas to another effortlessly. The noirish psychedelia of Change Up gives way to vintage crackle on Theme Song; he is equally comfortable rhyming off foul-mouthed sex-capades on the William Onyeabor-indebted Dirty Laundry as he is over jazz-funk fusion (with a little help from Flying Lotus).

    Joined by provocateur of the moment JPEGMAFIA on two tracks, we get the best of both of his worlds: once with him at the motherboard manning a seasick rhythm (3 Tearz) and again providing a memorable hook (Negro Spiritual). Dev Hynes shows up to lend gravitas to the introspective Danny on Shine, and Nigeria-born Obongjayar’s husky rasp is a wounded spectre on the ghost train ride of Belly of the Beast.

    Most dazzling is Brown’s ability to ride these beats – even those that verge on, well, beatless. His technical proficiency is a marvel. In fact, on the Run the Jewels collaboration 3 Tearz, Killer Mike and EL-P are fine, but they seem battle-drunk from fighting with production that refuses to stay still. The duo are no strangers to beats that defy the mainstream, but they’ve rarely been found on something so hazy and psychotropic. Brown utterly schools them.
