Perseverance

Percee P had been rapping since the early '80s and by the time this record dropped he had nothing left to prove, which might be why it sounds so relaxed and confident. Madlib handles most of the production and the beats are exactly what you'd expect — dusty loops, snapping drums, lots of space. Percee's flow is precise and fluid, and the writing is technical without feeling like an exercise. The chemistry between the two of them is tight throughout.
