    Who said I didn't like Em? I grew up listening to his music. I don't think he's the best lyricist though.

    I listened to the entire project in 2015. Need to give it a re-listen i enjoyed it. Mayo Clinic & All Caps are the only 2 songs i still enjoy

    Oh and Jay Electronica. The whole exhibit series was amazing.

    T&Y and DWTW, for me, are the most lyracly impressive rap albums this decade.
