    Think about it, it takes you back to early 2000's hip-hop with it's beats and lyrics; sure it may switch up styles oftenly but it always sounds the same; smooth synths, woodwinds, agressive delivery.

    do you agree or am I the only one?

    I never noticed tbh.
    Then again, I haven't listened to that album very often.

    Didn't get into ScHoolboy until H&C. So I don't know either.

    How the h--- haven't most people heard Setbacks? I think Habits and Contradictions is still his best body of work, but this project is a close second. First one he ever released. Druggys WIt Hoes was the first I ever heard of and saw from Schoolboy Q. Been a fan since.

    I've noticed that a lot of indie albums from 2007-2012 sound oldschool :khaled:
