"Real hustler, I could sell a vampire blood" is a great line. Vampires are portrayed as taking blood and not buying it. Boldy James is an effective dealer that would even be able to convince vampires to buy blood. He is fearless, so he would sell to dangerous clientele such as vampires. Also the vampires would know better than to mess with him and steal his blood. Boldy interactions with vampires would be "Fair Exchange No Robbery". Plus with selling blood he would need to get the product from somewhere like killing somebody or robbing a blood bank, so when it comes to his deals he only cares about making money and not the impact on society.

Like the professor said, it's a cool line until you actually think about it and realize it would be extremely easy to sell a vampire blood. It's like on "Monterey Jack" when Boldy says "did a complete 360," when he really means a 180. If you do a 360, you end up in the same spot as you were before. Best not to think too hard about some of these rap lines or else you realize a lot of them are, in fact, not great.

I was coming to write a similar response. This line is genius. Boldy can sell something to a group that historically takes what he is selling by force. Salesman of the year and a Real Baaaaad Man! 😂

I love how personal yet detached Boldy is. He comes across very cold and impersonal on the surface but if you pay attention and listen he's really emotional and there's so much soul in how he's rapping. This is easily a top 3 album from Boldy, up there with Manger on McNichols and Bo Jackson. Loved Nicholas Craven's phenomenal production

billy woods Church please

He'll get to it, I'm still digesting it. This man don't miss I'm still listening to Aethiopes.

Great review Boldy is in the middle of one of the most prolific underground runs ever. Just diamond after diamond. My album LSD TV is dropping on my channel oct. 21st with an original 46-minute-long animated music video based off of my surreal paintings. Featuring some great artists

I know you wont go back it, but Manger on McNichols is the best produced Boldy James project. The producer, sterling toles, is a high school music teacher who apparently spent 10 years producing the album. Some of the best hip hop jazz instrumentals I have ever heard.

My favorite rapper they gonna put Boldy in the museum before it’s all said and done incredible project !!

That Town & Country beat is something special forsure forsure

I always wanted Boldy on soul sample beats like this. Craven & Boldy really put their best foot forward and shine on this album.

"Power Nap" is the Rap Song of the year...

another recommendation to check out avantdale bowling club - trees for some more underground jazzy rap from this week

You are by far my favorite break down channel!! Thank you for your service. Incredible album by Boldy and Kraven.

This dude really knows his stuff! I hope he does eto one day he has a new ep coming I hope he reviews it

This might be my favorite project all year… Boldy does not miss

I love that stuck in traffic sample I was hoping you knew

The "Just a friendly game of baseball" line is possibly a reference to the Main Source track.

Dope review as always….You’ve yet to cover The Opioid Era tho are u not familiar with those guys and their movement??

Hey professor have you thought about reviewing Reasonable Drought by stove god?

Please do that new billy woods

gotta say professor skye, you consistently impress me with the in depth analyses and you made me love this album just a little bit more

My mans posted a review that is longer than the record itself. Love you Prof Skye, keep it up mane 💯

I'm not gonna sample snitch, pas de balance.

There’s so much good music now but if you miss this new Gibbs you’ll regret it later. You gotta get on that Kane train

Best hip hop reviews. Bar none

For me Boldy & Nicholas are winning over the Rome album. For me Rome was the rapper of 2021, but this record is much more delicate for me. Also flow wise, i prefer Boldy.

Really looking forward to your opinion on who’s the best producer of 9/30/22 DO UPDATE!

Great Review And Critique..Salute And Cheers

Damn, this is coming too and I also need this on vax. No idea when this or Kiss the Ring is dropping, but new Alchemist & Boldy album is dropping on friday, as does new Eddie Kaine album. Kiss the Ring might drop on monday, maybe. Feels like golden albums are droppin from right and left. And almost forgot Futurewave & Boldy album which is also coming soon. And damn I need thos Craven & Ramson album which I missed. Hope that they do represses some day.

U showing this project love and really break it down u got my sub sir

Hey man, love your channel and the in depth takes you provide! you really need to listen to "manger on mchnichols" by boldy james and sterling toles, its boldy james magnum opus and was created by him and toles over the span of a decade. Id love to hear your thoughts on it

The gargoyles was a reference to “con creatures” cause they’re creatures made of stone plus everything you said. It’s hard af

Please review Manger on McNichols. Easy top 3 for Boldy

I think I know the 3 albums you want to review by Nicholas Craven...

would love to hear your thoughts on the new ag club album

Craven and Boldy win this for sure

love ur breakdowns of these amazing albums that are slept on by the charts n masses the real ones know tho

It’s cold 🥶 outside … shout out Detroit love from ny

James Blake has a good beat on Freddie's album, can't wait till u hear that

the sample for Power Nap is “I know I Love Him” by Marlena Shaw

Boldy x Craven got it album has been on repeat Rome dope (Conductor need to relax with them producer adlibs) but that Cold flow from Bo Jack kills it Concreatures real Gargoyles 227 Hell Block Drug Zone, my only problem with this album was why Death and Taxes didn't make the tracklist? such an amazing track they put out first as a starter before Scrabble n Power Nap...his drug talk too deep to explain properly really
