Aesop Rock - Labor Days - 2001

As Aesop was slowly losing his mind, his music was at its' peak. This album is certainly his tour-DE-force, and is one of the greatest hip hop albums I've listened to. His shenanigans never get old and his rhymes never get sold, so that's just some more gold for his old mold. The shit.

Aesop Rock - Music for Earthworms - 1997

Aesop Rock's seminal LP named after, what this reviewer would assume, is his favorite animal; earthworms. The beats get funky and his lyrics stay jet black. Aesop Rock also shows the viewer that he's a good sport by giving a few verses to a radio station. Overall, considering it was only released via CD-R, the album is an extremely good first offering, and still one of Aesop Rock's best releases.

Aesop Rock - Float - 2000 BC

Aesop Rock brings us his second full length LP with Float, an album so full of pipe dreams and complex ways of figuring out fairly simple issues. As far as rhymes go, Aesop Rock is one of the top contenders in underground hip hop for the last 10 years. Albeit a man so full of apathy that his voice alone crones the meaning of life with cynicism. The 20 tracks flow freely, the beats are considerably minimalistic, and Blockhead and Aesop Rock's production works more than most mainstream producers. The strings and the brass sing perfectly in unison with funky and bluesy bass-lines, creating an abstract vibe. Proactively, the production and lyrics have grown since Music For Earthworms and Appleseed, and although his previous efforts could very well be seen as good, if not better, they simply do not have the same impact.

The impact is like: Labor Days by Aesop Rock, First Born by Eyedea and Abilities, Violent by Design by Jedi Mind Tricks
