Rob just confirmed today that he's dropping something soon. I remember seeing a picture of him with Aes a little while ago - gotta be a collab for his new album/EP, right? This is just wishful thinking at this point, Rob hasn't mentioned Aes

Homeboy Sandman dropped his album on July 31, Rob Sonic is soon, then Aes and Blockhead? Hopefully we're gonna be eatin' good late summer/early fall

This was on Blockhead's IG today. It was the first pic in a series of throwback pics that he said are from this year to like 10 years ago, so take what you will from that

I've been hanging out here and admiring the artwork for a few months now, the good and the bad, it's all fun! I'd like to request a portrait of my favorite lyricist - with or without his cat

If you like to draw stylized text, please add his alias: Aesop Rock

Classic Aesop Rock song No Regrets, about a girl named Lucy that lived her life doing what she loved, drawing: https://youtu.be/_kdOHXaes_8

Made sure to get home to catch the 2nd half of the game at the Astros and no dice. Apple bought the broadcast rights for the game so Rays fans can't even watch the game on Rays.tv. This really irritates me. I'm not signing up for the 7 day trial either because I don't want Apple TV garbage. Fuck Apple

Sitting here watching play by play on my phone. Nick Fortes is killing it tonight

Thank you to the artists that chose to draw my username. Here are collages of the first 12 that I collected. A few of them are slightly cut off, sorry. If you want to see the full version, just ask.

Thank you all so much for the smiles they've brought.

If you'd like to add to the collection, please comment with a drawing of your interpretation of my username.

Cheers!

I posted one of my favorite Aes Rock lyrics to be drawn in r/redditgetsdrawnbadly and this is the result. I could've chosen any of the thousands of metaphors in AR lyrics but I settled on this one. Note: I added the Garbology style text to the drawing

Thanks to the artist u/DoubleImprovement653

Anyone else guilty of throwing Aes lyrics out in other subs? I do it all the time

Blood Sandwich in the wild

I was at the Rays game last night and saw this guy. It's odd to see a person in a Cubs jersey around here (St. Petersburg, FL)

Dude yelling Go Cubs. Cubs ain't playing

Just got this yesterday, album is outstanding. Lots of good artists and of course he had to feature his boy Aesop Rock on 2 tracks

Gargamel ft. Defcee and Shrapknel is sick

The beats and sample usage are fantastic across the entire album

They should be called Fuckbugs. They have a lifespan of 3 to 5 days and they spend the whole time fucking... and they're fucking annoying

Update 2: I'll leave this available for download for a bit longer

If you're looking for the B-sides and Rarities vol 1-3, you can find them on this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/aesoprock/s/5nD04qLQtj

If you'd like to download the album I curated (Death Perception) which contains some of the B-sides and some newer tracks, you can get it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vblMcPB3KovceaeuZmDfSiaO-eH7kdM4/view?usp=drivesdk

Note: if the link above is inaccessible, comment on this post and I'll provide you with a new link

Update 1: well this hasn't received positive reception at all. 1/4 of the votes are downvotes.

I took the time to curate the tracks, find the best quality mp3s I could get, edit all the metadata, create a custom album cover, put them into an order that flows while telling a story of death and self reflection with great collabs and great beats from producers like madlib, RJD2, and blockhead

This sub has become pictures of pigeons and mushrooms, which I am tired of seeing, fuck that

I'll leave the link for download up until Monday night then I'll inactivate it and delete the post

Peace

I know we all have playlists from various streaming sites, but just wondering if you've put together a cohesive collection that plays like an album?

I did just that.. I call it the Curated Gems series with the first entry being called Death Perception (14 tracks, ~58 min runtime)

The tracks are mostly in chronological order by release date, from 2003 - 2015, with Welcome Home Warrior capping it off. It consists of mostly features with some B-sides mixed in

I am happy with how it turned out and will likely make more - I'll share them if you show interest. I'm sure the no fun police amongst us will have a problem with it but that's fine. I enjoyed crafting it

All file metadata updated and verification of no malicious tags
