The Course of the Inevitable

Lloyd Banks

Dense, gravelly lyricism over dusty, noir-inspired boom bap. A somber and masterful return to form that favors technical precision over radio appeal.

A relentless, cold-weather meditation on legacy and survival through technical mastery.

Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless, breathless delivery on Propane that sets a high-stakes tone for the entire hour.
The haunting piano loop on Death by Design that perfectly mirrors the lyrical weight of mortality.
The way the beat strips back on C O T I to let the final bars land with bone-dry intimacy.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
