Thought it was "untitled unmastered."
Anyway, bought that Bitch on iTunes and jammed it all day. It's being described as an "album" by a lot of the sources I've seen. It certainly feels like more than an EP.
Sonically it feels right in line with TPAB, except a little tighter. Untitled 07 sounds like a fucking Velvet Underground demo, but other than that it's not really full of any surprises in terms of musicality or production, but it's bad as hell, most definitely.
What better way to follow up TPAB, which was quite possibly the most anticipated hip-hop record of the modern era, and was 3 years in the making, than to drop an "untitled" album on everyone almost exactly one year later with no warning whatsoever? I mean, that's fucking classy yo.
I'd still like to hear him rhyme over some novel instrumentation soon. Maybe let got of the whole live jam thing, because it's a pretty restrictive sound in hip-hop. I'd love for more out there producers like Ye and FlyLo to produce his next big studio joint. I really prefer good kid to TOAB, and I miss K rapping over hard ass beats and synths.
Still, this made my day (which was otherwise a total shitstorm) way easier to take. Listened to it I don't know how many times. Barely had time for the new Big Ups (which is dope as hell.)
