Yeah the "lack of cohesion" wasn't really a problem for me with this album

I never really got the lack of cohesion thing? Every song sounds like it was recorded for this album. Even survival, I dont get the survival and recovery comparisons? Maybe just the beat but even that not really. This album sounds very cohesive to me.

Survival's a damn good song, good lyrics with good lines and an interesting flow/voice. :y:

Singin' "Bagpipes from Baghdad" again
In my dad's drag draggin' a faggot in a Glad bag
Won't be the last time I make a dramatic entrance like that again
You thought I was lyin' when I said I think that I'm crossin' the line again
I've lost my mind, caution oh God I think I've just thought of another fucking line
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
But hip hop has left me brainwashed with a violent streak

Nice. :y:

I personally would like a more unified sound, but it's not like this is bad, and I don't feel it really detracts from the quality of the album. I really like this effort, and I hope he can continue on this path and outdo himself on the next project. But I'll be satisfied as long as he continues to release material of this quality.

That 3rd verse. Some of his flows I find enjoyable as well.

Still love this album. Not a single bad song. Has tracks for all moods. Plus the rapping and lyricism is some of his honest best work.
