I mean… Malibu Ken is … basically just Aesop Rock + Tobacco, right?
Like, the sub header/alt title for the album is ‘Aesop Rock and TOBACCO are Malibu Ken’.
Like how Garbology is Aesop Rock + Blockhead?
I… get that you can split hairs over exact naming schemes…
…but Malibu Ken just literally is Aesop Rock on vocals and lyrics, just as Garbology is Aesop Rock on vocals and lyrics. He just partnered with different musicians for the ‘beats’.
But anyway yes, Tobacco is fucking awesome, so is Black Moth Super Rainbow.
nothing sounds like how he … makes music. It’s incredible.
Malibu Ken replaced None shall pass as my favorite but NSP still holds a place in my heart
Skelethon > everything (tho i do like ITS, the song Vititus has a weirdly nostalgic vibe)
Malibu Ken isn’t an Aesop album it’s a Malibu Ken album. TOBACCO should not be underestimated and is great on his own too.
