Mick Jenkins Tacks On Two New Tracks And Instrumentals To His Terrific 2023 Record “The Patience”

by

Mick Jenkins, an excellent wordsmith hailing from Huntsville, Alabama, is undoubtedly one of the most clever lyricists we have going in modern hip-hop. Also being raised in the south side of Chicago gave him the blue-collar grittiness that he displayed on his critically acclaimed album The Patience. Released on August 18, 2023, it featured a trim 11-song tracklist with standout features and performances. Now, it has just received a deluxe edition.

Let us just say that it somehow improves it. The new additions include “2011” and “Perm.” On top of that, Mick adds instrumentals for the original release. Furthermore, he adds some color to the cover art, which could be a nod to the waviest song about “color theory” on “Roy G. Biv.” If you listen on Apple Music and use Lossless audio, the deluxe sounds a bit louder compared to the previous edition.

Listen To The Patience (Deluxe Edition) By Mick Jenkins

However, tracks like “Pasta,” “Show & Tell” with Freddie Gibbs, “Farm to Table” featuring VIC MENSA, and more still sound great. Everything still sounds lush and the penmanship is still there on the new tracks. “2011” is another storytelling cut that sees Mick recalling where he was in his life and with his music career. “Perm” is the bigger banger of the two with great bars like these. “You seeing ballerinas if n****s is spinning the block / We stay on our toes, two hands on the clock / No bustdowns, that’s the neighborhood watch / Play Sasquatch, won’t see me in the spot.”

What are your thoughts on this brand-new deluxe version of The Patience by Mick Jenkins? Is this the best body of work he has ever put out, why or why not?

Oliver Tree Drops Deluxe Version Of “Cowboy Tears” Album

by

There usually tends to be significantly fewer music releases toward the end of the year, especially around the holidays.

However, Christmas arrived a couple of days early for Olive Tree fans. On Friday (December 23), the 29-year-old dropped off the deluxe version of his album from earlier this year.

The original release, Cowboy Tears, officially arrived in February with 13 tracks, including “Suitcase Full of Cash.” The deluxe version, titled Cowboy Tears Drown the World in a Swimming Pool of Sorrow, features 11 brand-new songs added to the top of the original’s tracklist.

The deluxe gets off to a heated start with the intro, “I Hate You,” on which Tree expresses his new hatred for an ex-best friend. “I hate you, you’re the worst best friend I ever had / So thank you, ’cause nothing else could be that bad / I embraced you, and all you did was stab me in the back / So thank you, ’cause now all I can do is laugh,” he passionately sings on the hook.

For the most part, the production features fun guitar riffs and some light rock drums. However, songs like “Wasteland” are more upbeat and pop-inspired. The common denominator here is the 29-year-old’s unique vocals and expressive lyrics. Furthermore, some of the new tracks are co-produced by Travis Barker. This is certainly evident through the heavy drums present in most of the songs.

As a whole, the album effectively continues the Santa Cruz native’s streak as one of the most outlandish and experimental artists in the pop/indie scene.
