    Tequila is so different in a really good way. Ain’t really hear hip hop songs like this. Any come to mind @Uncle Luke?

    What was Elite smoking in the studio when he cooked it up?

    I bought Mirrorland but I haven't listened to it yet. There's something lacking about Rotd3 that I can't put my finger on

    Swivel was recorded some years ago. It was one of the first songs they played for cole when they met him. Cole convinced them to save it for their debut. I knew it sounded different from everything on the album

    Ok, I give it maybe 6 out 10. The album sounds like Outkast, Young Thug, and Lil Wayne all in one. Like there's a thin line between being influenced and mimicking. They sound too much like other people. Really talented though. The production is excellent. I couldn't finish Proud of U. It's a bunch of noise. Young Thug is hit or miss.I feel like the Tequila beat was wasted, that song could've been better. Everything after Tequila was meh to me.

    An aside: I wish Cole would've featured them on KOD

    Final (First Listen) Thoughts on EarthGang’s MIRRORLAND

    EarthGang not only wrote an album, but they also wrote a love letter. A letter to their blackness, to their musical roots, and to the city that raised them. MIRRORLAND isn’t T.I.’s Atlanta, or Jeezy’s, or OutKast’s. The album represents EarthGang, an exhibition of their talents, and a glimpse into their world as they see it. Olu and WowGr8 avoid the allure of being anyone else, confident in their cool; comfortable with their weird

    Well said. I agree with Yoh from DJ Booth @Whitney Michelle I don’t hear mimicking of OutKast, Thug and Wayne. Influenced and appreciation of those artists, for sure...but they put their own style, perspective and twist on their art.

    Yes I agree the sound is unique and they're really talented but I hear the influence from all those other artists
