From what we can tell, all of these tracks boast his signature aggressive, politically charged and conscious bars, but run over more evolved, jazzy yet rugged, boom-bap beats a combination which Ab-Soul bodies so well, and that we can’t wait to hear. The label have been teasing the release of DWTW since March this year, and since then a number of clips ( 1, 2, 3) have surfaced over the course of the mixing and recording process. With these three tracks up his sleeve it’s no surprise many are calling it early as being his most powerful release yet. A half-decade later, Control System remains the high-water mark in Soul’s catalog. but still deserve some extra attention- including records from Ab-Soul, Four. The Book of Soul: An Ode to Ab-Souls ‘Control System’ 5 Years Later. Armed with an eerie, banging beat produced by PakkMusicGroup, Soulo flexes his always eloquent lyrical style and flow while reflecting on a subject he has often delved into, religion – specifically Christianity. 2015 marked another diverse and strong year for music. Going off his last two releases, Huey Knew and Braille, Soulo is managing to stay firmly planted in his heightened conscious lyricism, while also venturing further forth into fresher, more experimental instrumentation, something which can clearly be seen in his brand new brooding single, Threatening Nature. Now fellow label-mate and Black Hippy member Ab-Soul has made it clear he too wants a piece of this pie, announcing that his heavily anticipated fourth studio album, titled DWTW aka Do What Thou Wilt, will in fact be released this Friday. There’s no doubt Top Dawg Entertainment have literally been running this year with their catalogue of releases, from Kendrick Lamar’s untitled.unmastered to ScHoolboy Q’s Blank Face LP and even the newcomer Lance Skiiiwalker’s debut. ![]()
