weird production ... he only raps on 2 tracks ... he sounds best when billy woods is by his side...

i might dig it then, there's a lot of elucid solo stuff that i think is dope even with the weirder production. i don't think he needs woods to make great music. bird eat snake, for madmen only, save yourself, and valley of grace are all incredible and he's got a couple others too. sucks to hear he's only rapping on a couple tracks here though.

I love "for madmen only", "valley of grace" was solid too, same goes for his ep with haj, but in my book, "save yourself" was kinda weak ... maybe I expected too much after his album with a.m. breakups and armand hammer's debut, but imo, "save yourself" was rather disappointing, especially since he had access to all the dope backwoodz in-house producers...

honestly i thought it was weak too at first and i don't even remember why. obama incense, blame the devil, MBTTS, can't keep it to myself, and son still shine were all dope to me from the jump but yeah, most of the tracks didn't stick with me when i first heard the album. i revisited it months later after not listening to it for a while and it finally clicked. a lot of elucid's stuff is like that for me, but bird eat snake/the love offering is the one i've been going back to the most lately.

^ makes sense, tippi ... guess I have to give "save yourself" one last chance as I think elucid's usually a dope emcee and I dig his contribution to the armand hammer albums...

i always hoped valley of grace would get pressed on wax or even would be happy with a tape/cd. anyone know if nostrum tapes still available?
