One of the most innovative and interesting albums I've ever heard, Circle explores the various textures of stream of consciousness. The lyrics are all over the map, however the lyric book provides great insight. Doseone's trademark high-pitched vocals are here employed by just about every style of production. Boom Bip's tribal beats, ambient washes, and classic hip hop rhythms complement Doseone's notebook readings.

This album is for anyone who enjoys something extremely unique. A great starter for the Mush record label and experimental hip hop.
