Our Take

AESOP ROCK's latest album "Daylight" is a schizophrenic masterpiece that will leave you scratching your head in all the right ways. The rapper's agile wordplay and intricate rhyme schemes are on full display here, with tracks like "Night Light" and "No Regrets" showcasing his unparalleled skill as a wordsmith.

But don't let the serious lyrical content fool you - there's a playful, almost whimsical quality to AESOP ROCK's flow that keeps the album from ever feeling too heavy. Tracks like "Daylight" and "Dorks" have a lighthearted energy that is infectious, making this album a joy to listen to from start to finish.

One of the standout features of "Daylight" is AESOP ROCK's production. The beats are gritty and hypnotic, providing the perfect backdrop for his rapid-fire delivery. The album's sonic landscape is rich and textured, with layers of instrumentation that reveal themselves upon each listen.

Overall, "Daylight" is a triumph for AESOP ROCK, showcasing his evolution as an artist while staying true to the quirky, offbeat style that has made him a legend in the underground hip-hop scene. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to his music, this album is not to be missed.
