It sits on the continuum of his studio albums (I thought the live album a bit of a misstep). The strings a bit more foregrounded than on "Savior" but the sound's basically the same, plenty of trumpet. The rapper's on two or so tracks, the spoken word elements are a running thread, but not overly used, in the same way that AA's employed them on previous albums. If you've enjoyed the three previous studio albums then I think you'll feel the same about this one Quote

And if you get tired of trying to figure out what's what, just listening always works. In fact, that probably works best. A lot of the tracks are obvious particularly those from the Charliie Parler label. A handful remain a mystery at the moment. But yep,it's all great stuff. Quote
