New Elucid is pretty dope...think I'm just more of a woods fan honestly but some really neat production on this and a few standouts for sure
Sebb got this experimental s*** on lock. Want to hear him lock in with Siifu next.
He played some unreleased s*** in the studio a couple summers back. Was hoping it would end up on here. I think about that beat at least once a week.
This feels like one of his most accessible solo albums, strangely enough. Doubt it will unseat Revelator for me, but I love it
Production is out of this world. I almost don't want to play it back, the sounds are so unique I'm scared I'll get used to them.
Make Me Wise especially, I didn't listen when it dropped as a single but anyone who did, how the hell have you not been raving about it. Also: Cantata, the beat switch on Fainting Goats, Alive Herbals.
This feels like one of his most accessible solo albums, strangely enough. Doubt it will unseat Revelator for me, but I love it
Valley of Grace for me. Wish it was a full length. Need more travelogue projects
I write songs
Forgetting why I did in the first place
Then hit the stage, fully dip
Catch my own drift
I don't think this has been posted before, so for those interested, Backwoodz put out a mixtape for free back in 2011 titled 'The Cost of Living'. This was released before History Will Absolve Me. The original link from backwoodz is dead, but there's still a working link to download the whole project here (click on the MEDIAFIRE link):

billy woods has some great verses on here (check out 'Shilling')
Here is the original description of the album from 2011 (this must be written by woods himself) and the tracklist:
"The economy is in the tank. Unemployment is at an all-time high. Those with money are scared to spend it and those without, well...they do without. Two-and-a-half wars continue to drain the nation's coffers while the bloodshed increases. Summer is over. Winter is coming. Want to hear the good news? Backwoodz Studioz has a free record for you, aptly titled The Cost Of Living. With albums from billy woods, Elucid, Willie Green & Pastense on the horizon but still awaiting release dates, we figured our fans could use something to hold them over. Fifteen tracks featuring our artists; Willie Green, Vordul Mega, billy woods, A.M. Breakups, Elucid, Marmaduke, Bond, Pastense & HiCoup. They are joined by friends and family like Open Mike Eagle, Junclassic, Nasa, Man Mantis, Eleven, Teddy Faley, Cavalier, Megabusive and L'Wren."
