Apollo Brown & Crimeapple - This Is Not That [LP Gold Tar Swirl Vinyl]

When Apollo Brown and Crimeapple connect, it's like old film grain under a projector-gritty, timeless. This album isn't just boom-bap nostalgia; it's a rebirth of smoke-stained bars, where Crimeapple plays both poet and philosopher, flipping bilingual manteca rhymes with a chef's precision, stirring up the street grime and serving it with a side of sharp wit. Apollo Brown, as always, builds his beats like ancient architecture-dusty, soulful, and heavy with forgotten stories. These tracks sound like the cracks in the sidewalk talking back, the perfect companion for long nights and even longer thoughts. It's a sonic novel, a street sermon, and Crimeapple's wordplay dances through it like grease sizzling in a pan, a reminder that even in decay, there's beauty. This, Is Not That. A1.
