iTunes Review
Part of Washington D.C.'s Diamond District crew (along with Oddissee and XO) and affiliated with both MelloMusicGroup and Fat Beats, yU is probably best known for his critically acclaimed 2010 solo shot, Before Taxes. Sporting a swift flow loaded with smart, personal lyricism and smile-inducing references, he's clearly a star on the rise. For The Earn, he enlists a burly lineup of sample-savvy producers (Kev Brown, DJ Roddy Rod, Slimkat 78, and others, including himself) to provide moody but funk-laden backdrops to his vivid verses. Overflowing with righteously smooth and jazz-drenched loops, snappy and dusty breaks, rugged bass lines, and a gang of strong features (King Tut, Duff, Imani Bilal, and Nicholas Ryan Gant), this will appeal to heads unimpressed with shallow street rhymes and generic post-crunk club beats. All 17 tracks here are quality, although "Time Machine/I Remember When," "I Believe," "Money (The Ahh Yeah)," and "Blind" are especially nice.
Customer Reviews
I'm betting this is the best album of 2011
yU's last album was classic (and I don't say that often). This one should be nothing less. Diamond District, Oddisee, yU, Mello Music Group, the whole team is amazing. I know what I'm bumpin for the next couple months!
Instant classic
Just as good as the first one keep up the good work yU!
Art at its Finest.
yU's writing style and presentation of thoughts never fails. Consistently Honest Content. I agree that this is easily one the years best albums. High respects to Mello Music Group for releasing constant good material.
