It’s been about a month now, so it’s time to speak up. I probably could do without “The Parable of the Rich Man” , “Herside Story” and yeah that’s about it!“At What Cost” IS the most complete project of the year so far (It may even be GoldLink’s best work.). It’s hard hitting, funky, and maintains the bounce you’ve heard for most of the songs on the album. The two singles “Crew” and “Meditation” got us primed for the hip-hop and dancing energy that the album exudes across fourteen tracks.The features on here were beyond impressive: The lineup included Jazmine Sullivan, Kaytranada, Steve Lacy, Radiant Children, Koyaki, Mya, Hare Squead, April George, Ciscero, Shy Glizzy, Brent Faiyaz, Lil Dude, and Wale (It is pretty dope that some of these featured artists hailed from the DMV.).
None of the features on this album felt superfluous or unnecessary which is rare these days.At What Cost opens up with “Opening Credit” which is an array and clash of sounds: It’s dark and scrambled because you can’t make out what’s going down and what nor the direction will be. Los discos son extremadamente blandos, livianos y de mala calidad. We’ll see.I’d Like to thank @RatingsGameGuy for allowing me to bring you this review of such a great project. Genre: Hip Hop.
This was a real dope track content wise of course but production on here stood out to me. GoldLink and Wale come across as two poets speaking on past relationships and old tales, showing off their eye for details in a short and sweet track. Select your address
2015’s “And After That, We Didn’t Talk,” followed in the same sonic groove. The D.C. rapper’s major label debut is made of loose, richly textured hip-hop that weaves a colorful tapestry from his city’s musical history featuring Wale, the Internet, and Kaytranada.The album’s opening third establishes a strong sense of place. An original brand of women-friendly rap that …
Basically, production on this track was “dumb lit.”! Gotta love it.With “Hands On Your Knees” following up, for a second GoldLink takes us back to the spinning times of Disco and Soul Train with Kokayi acting as a DJ to encourage everyone to let loose and “do that shit!”. GoldLink first started making his name in 2014 with the mixtape ‘The God Complex’, in which he immediately made an impact on audiences with his self-termed style called “future bounce”.
From someone who once repeatedly rhymed that “Hip-hop will die, I promise that/If we keep the lies in our raps,” GoldLink keeps it real and pays constant tribute to The District, which is half homeland and half living, breathing character.
‘Til the old District of Columbia go up in gunsmoke.” Interesting right?“Same Clothes As Yesterday” was definitely one of my favorite tracks on here!
Excelente disco, pero la edición en vinilo deja mucho que desear. Y’ALL DONT UNDERSTAND HOW SYCED I WAS WHEN I SAW HER AS A FEATURE ON THIS ALBUM. “At What Cost” flips the script on his first two releases, moving away from “future bounce” and more towards the regional sounds of D.C.T. Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for At What Cost at Amazon.com. On Link’s part, he lightly talks about the day to day DMV life, showing how it goes down here from the partying, to the bravado, to just speaking on the hood in general. BANGER ALERT. The model takes into account factors including the age of a rating, whether the ratings are from verified purchasers, and factors that establish reviewer trustworthiness.This page works best with JavaScript.
