Artist: Aesop Rock
Album: Labor Days
Release Date: September 18, 2001
Label(s): Def Jux
Standout Track(s):
Battery, Daylight, No Regrets
How I heard about it: Ryan Wert.
Where I bought it: Vertigo.
Another Ryan Wert suggestion. This is one of my favorite hip hop albums, probably could be considered one of my favorite albums overall as well. You can pretty much ignore the standout tracks here, I gave this album a good listen the other day and gave every song on the album at least 4 out 5 stars, not a bad one in the bunch.
Aesop's latest albums have contained a lot of really bad beats in my opinion. According to Ryan Wert he started making his own beats and they are just lousy, for those of you that don't know, Ryan Wert is a hip hop producer. As you can tell by the album's title, this album is loosely based around your average run of the mill person with your average run of the mill sort of job. Last I read, Aesop still works a "day job" himself. The album is pretty easy to listen to.
