Man he really chooses lightweights to work with

Pareles calling him out on that, yes. The clips sound quite good but I genuinely want to avoid adding Tidal to my increasing number of monthly subscriptions just now for the very silly reason that I'd rather not contribute financially to the further balkanization of streaming services. i'm sure i'll come around soon enough.

it's gonna be out on CD next week, so Tidal won't be the only option.
it's the hardest he's tried to sound 'current' in a long time imo. interesting but definitely not an entirely successful attempt.

"Then again, BuzzFeed could compile a list of five Prince albums most people have never heard of." Five? How about 20?

Oh well if LEFSETZ doesn't like it
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Friday, 18 September 2015 18:46 (nine years ago)
To be honest, it doesn't look like The Lef has actually heard the album, instead choosing to balk at length about the delivery method Prince initially used.

I heard this is his best album since "Blood on the Tracks."
