Product Description

Workin' is really held together by some very strong production courtesy of Nobs himself with a little help from Fingerprint family members Losaka and Hippo. Over the course of the album's 17 tracks, and all the themes & moods that come with them, the beats stay knockin'. Ill loops, dusty drum-breaks and crazy vocal samples abound. There's an emphasis on small details that decorate the corners of the soundscape and melodic flourishes that keep the proceedings fresh- grabbing at your attention even after repeated listens. He conveys some intellectually complex ideas and emotionally challenging feelings on this record, and does so while maintaining his wit, humor, lyrical dexterity and personal accessibility. He never seems like he's putting on a character (even when he is ) or trying to be conceptual just for the sake of being conceptual. For the most part he just comes off like a guy rapping about how he feels and what he thinks.
