I rarely ever enjoy any male vocals at all, but Novel has changed that.

I really wish Novel kept all the soulful songs separate from the hip hop based tracks! All the smooth shit on here is top notch & deserves all the praise. Songs like "Smoke Robinson", "Start To Fade" & "Ghetto Sing" are incredible. On the other hand "Exhibit Rap" doesn't fit in at all & just ruins this from being an album you listen to straight through. Either way Novel is a personal favorite of mine.

and real talk "Velvet Sky" brought tears to my eyes while my grandfather was dying slowly in the hospital. Just gotta put that out there, because real music does that !
