Is no-one checking this out?

IMO, the album is consistent. No tracks really stand out for me, except maybe 'Work Everyday' and maybe Stop The Press.

I'm definitely checking this out, but I just have too much music to listen to right now.

I have never checked out Brother Ali... Do I miss something big? Which songs should I check as introduction?

I've always had the idea that Brother Ali is a white guy who converted to the islamic religion. His music is basically some depressing & whining shit about anti-America, God (Allah), conflicts in the middle east, capatalism etc. And I'm sorry, but how deep & intelligent his lyrics may be, I'm just not interested in hearing that shit. Apart from that, I suspect he has mostly boring beats as well.
=> Is the idea I have about this guy correct?

P.S.: It's just a (mis)conception I have. No need to feel angry & react all irritated , I'm just open to discuss this

Thanks

The two have just released a stream of leftover tracks from the album. Sounds better than the album in my opinion.

Don't know how to embed soundcloud.
