'Equilibrium' is just a terrific album. That Blue Series turned out some cracking music for a time

I used to just buy anything I could find on that label.

Currently listening to that record Shipp did with Anti-Pop Consortium. That's aged less well, I think. Possibly that sort of early 00s 'alternative' Hip Hop only made sense at the time as an alternative in the era of 50 Cent's dominance. In post-Kanye post-Trap retrospect, the whole CloudDead / Mike Ladd / Anti-Pop Consortium bunch just seem to me to have been a smug and talentless road to nowhere.

Edit: Not sure why this record is riling me up so much this morning. No one likes to be confronted with their younger self.
