Cost Of Living [Red Cloudy Vinyl] (LP)
Apollo Brown , Philmore Greene
Amoeba Review
Apollo Brown and Philmore Greene have created a masterpiece with Cost of Living. Greene gives a no holds barred account of growing up on Chicago's westside, dealing with poverty, limited options, mental health battles, and the devaluation of life on the streets. Brown's beats are cinematic, moody, and haunting, with lush flourishes and downbeat melodies. Cost of Living finds the beauty in the bleakness: it's one of the smartest, most emotionally effective hip-hop albums of the year. This one will stick with you.
