If you don’t have some C-Rayz Walz in your life then you are missing out.  He has wordplay and punchlines for daysssss.  And he is a seriously unique individual lol.  That is just a nice way of saying that he is a crazy ass mofo, but I swear it’s in the best way possible.  He was the special guest at a Skribble Jam I went to one year and only like five of us even knew who he was, he was getting mad disrespected and I felt like I needed to slap some fools for not being onto the game.  But without missing a beat he stepped up and put on a dope show for those few of us who were aware of his level of dopeness.  I can’t stress enough how many times the tracks on this album will have you smiling, rewinding and smiling over and over again.  Dude is a genius with words and has a near flawless delivery.

This one here is for the deeeeeeep thinkers.  Illogic’s lyrics are on another level, on another planet in a far away galaxy.  Think Aesop Rock with a little bit slower flow so you can pick up on all his words.  I’m always looking for artists like this because they take someone like me, who is a deep thinker by nature, and gives me new things to ponder.  Time after time of listening to this album, this is what I look like —–> :O….because his lyrics are just wow.  And Blueprint provides some trippy, other-worldly, majestic type beats to support the intensity of Illogic’s revelations and observations.  Major win.

Producers: Blueprint
