Simply one of the best albums I own, 60+ minutes of musical bliss... Metaphorical Music is a perfect balance of flawless collaborations with underground MCs and smooth, jazzy instrumentals that are both relaxing and uplifting at the same time. This has rarely left my stereo since the day I got it - even after hearing the album so many times, it still stays as refreshing and enjoyable as it was the first time I pressed play. It showcases some of the best music that the hip-hop genre is capable of.
