It’s been two years since Black Milk dropped The Rebellion Sessions and The Sunday Outtakes, two instrumental projects with his band Nat Turner. Fans have been waiting even longer for a proper solo album from Black Milk, who last dropped one — If There’s A Hell Below — in 2014.
If There’s A Hell Below, which HipHopDX gave 4 out of 5 stars in our review, capped off an impressive run of critically acclaimed projects over a two-year period. Black Milk earned high marks for 2013’s No Poison No Paradise and followed it up with a venerated EP titled Glitches In The Break in March 2014.
OMG. this just made my day. Anyone who knows Black Milk knows this album will be a new sound from an incredible producer.
I agree. Super underrated. The Preface with Elzhibwas dope as well
where you been kid!
Saw him in Philly 2 yrs ago. Cool ass brotha. Played some unreleased beats.
Can’t wait. Been a fan of Black since the dirty district br gunna days.
Should be dope.. his last album was good.. no poison was his worst.. tronic is his best by far. He and Dilla have always inspired me. Good luck bro
personally i like almost all of his albums more than Tronic.. surprised you didn’t like No Poison!
The beats were pretty forgettable overall
Guy never puts out a bad album can’t wait.
Haven’t really checked for him since No Poison No Paradise. Tronic was an amazing producer album, back when Statik Selektah and Alchemist were doing them every year, and Album of the Year was pretty good as well. Dude is an amazing producer, seriously underrated and up there with Apollo Brown in terms of dopeness, his recent work has just been dabbling in other genres besides hip hop. Not that its a bad thing, just not what I expected per se.
I love the cover art.
Who did that album cover a 7th grader in art class .
