The people who didn't love TPAB will definitely be happy.

Then again I think TPAB is incredible and I'm loving this one so far.

I think DNA, Element, Feel, XXX, and Fear are early stand outs. Only two listens in, though. I'm sure this will change constantly.
Internet is ablaze with rumors of a second album coming on Sunday.

3 minutes into this album and this absolutely trounces everything else he's done
Glad you like it.
Or at least the first 3 minutes.

On "ELEMENT." right now. This album fucking slays. Makes his other stuff looks like child's play. Part of what made me hesitant to embrace him before was the lack of forward-looking musical vision. But this sounds totally visionary. One of my friends called it "future music," which I think is right on the money. This is gonna influence other music in big ways.

First listen/first impressions:
Lyrically it's a stunner. The production reminds me a lot of Hi-Tek/Black Star. After one listen I'd say it's got less highs than TPAB, but not a single low -- it's a more consistent listen, whereas there are a few tracks I always skip on TPAB.
