[FRESH] tags should only be applied to official music & music videos, not leaks, interviews, articles, art, live footage, etc. [SHOTS FIRED] should only be used for legitimate beef, not jokes or competition among artists.

Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.

I totally forgot this thread was happening today... I got nothing really to add at the moment that hasn't already been said here, other than "Raid" needing a proper shout out in the thread. But I'll jam on the album again in the morning and maybe make an edit.

It is funny tho, I was thinking about DOOM earlier this morning when this amazing track with Aesop Rock came on my playlist. These dudes are both my favorite wordsmiths in hip hop, and I was feeling really sad that they only ever got up on a few tracks together... Tell me it wouldn't be the dopest shit if they had done a whole collab album together!? And, to keep it a little in theme with this thread, tell me a collab of Aesop and Madlib vs. DOOM and Blockhead wouldnt also be fucking dope!?
