Jan 9, 2016 Can anyone find their review for this album? Did they ever write one? If not, why? I'm guessing they're afraid to give it less than a "XXL" rating. Thoughts?
Jan 9, 2016 Another hip hop magazine didn't review it at the time (can't remember the name, don't think it was XXL), and they said something like: "we don't know anything about jazz, so it wouldn't be fair for us to review it) but they named it aoty 8 months later. As for XXL, they said in their "best albums of 2015" article that TPAB was beautiful, wonderfully sequenced and will go down as one of the most important albums in hip hop history
Jan 9, 2016 2 journalists were supposed to review it for XXL but they both said in a podcast that tpab was way too good and way too pure to be reviewed.

Jan 17, 2016 so it was too good for them to review? That makes no sense what kind of journalists are they lol
