Entirely Random Observation

Just because I hadn't listened to it in a long while, I decided to throw on Speakerboxxx/The Love Below as background noise while I did some work this afternoon. And DAMN it sounds good. It inspired a lot of backlash in some corners after it came out, but I think it's aging really well...if anything I was more impressed listening to it this afternoon than I was when it first came out. It just has everything...it's as lush and impeccably produced as an early Kanye West album, as weird and uninhibited as Lil' Wayne (in all the best ways, and almost none of the worst), and as unexpected and artistically fearless as any mainstream album of the past 10 years.

It's well worth revisting!
