    'Walkin, ' is also was one of my favourite songs as well. The lyrics really got me in encouraging me to keep going on despite the hard times. I've used it as gym motivation, to get out of depressive thoughts. Honestly one of my favourite songs. Was a bit sad you didn't mention the Kenny beats tape as that had some impressive artistic visuals along side his rap. It's an absolute experience watching and listening at the same time for that piece of work.

      Absolutely. I have JID and him tied for the best in the game right now. Kendrick’s album was pretty mid this year, plus he had disappeared for 5 years before that, Eminem might actually be close to if not retired, Kanye is… I don’t even know at this point, and no other modern rapper can come even close to the level that JID and Zel are at.

    Denzel has been my fav rapper since early 2022 when Walkin dropped. I was already listening to his songs before that, but never acknowledged him enough, until that song. It made me a huge fan. Now all his music stands out to me the most and I never get tired of it. He has his own sound that amazes me more than any other rapper. He’s literally the one rapper mainstream rap is ignoring for no reason. He has the ability to be one of the top 3 lyrical rappers in the game. He should be up there with Kendrick and Cole or simply very close. This applies to a few other rappers like JID and Joey Bada$$. IMO Denzel, JID, & Joey Bada$$ are the underrated holy trinity of modern lyrical rap.

      Oh my god thank you for saying this. I don’t think planet shrooms clicks with many people for some reason but it clicks for me, and I can tell you honestly that no music ever made has the sound that Planet Shrooms has. It’s truly magical.

    Ay, shoutout to this guy for using the “hate will never win” beat at the end, it’s one of the most interesting X songs I’ve heard and if you haven’t heard it, go listen to it right now.

    denzel has said openly that he is aware of what he has cultivated: a catalogue where all of his full length releases are critically acclaimed. At a certain point he says realized what a gift that is and stopped focus on trying to blow up, because he really really really doesn't want to break the streak of great, acclaimed albums. Many artists much more successful as him cannot make the same claim, and denzel understands that this is what gives you a legacy in hip hop more then the commercial success of records. There's tons of #1 records that are forgotten a year after release, but denzel will keep putting out great projects that will stand the test of time. he didn't always, but now he knows exactly what he's doing.
    incidentally your vid left out something kinda big: Nostalgic 64 was HUGE in underground hip hop and that is what set the stage for 32 Zel/Planet Shroom.

    Best in the game, hands down. Denzel and Kendrick are so far and above any other mainstream cats it's insane, but for my money, this man is the best. He can do it all.
