Poet the Sonnet delivers a sophomore album that's chocked full of heart, spirit, bars and overly long tracks.
The album is sonically pleasing, but as mentioned above the bloated track list makes it a bit of a chore to listen to. That was a concern when 17 tracks were announced as P has always had an affinity for creative bodies of works. Yes, musically it's fantastic, but it does have its drawbacks such as people not finding the true gems on the album. They listen to what they know.
The biggest gem on the album comes in the form of Love to Africa. Where P as he's always done shows he's scars and wears he's heart on he's sleeve. The other standout track is the Reason assisted Celebrate the Roses. While it's length once again is an issue, the verses are far from it. There are other notable features spread throughout the album showing P's ability to play well with others even though he's perfectly capable of carrying any project on he's own.
The title track also delivers in spades and then there's the slight miscue with Time Waits for No Man. While it is different, it just quite doesn't "fit" onto an album like this, especially since it comes in so late. The production on UTS is superior to TDP and shows P's growth in beat selection. The wide array of producers also didn't hold back on articulating every instrumental meticulously.
While not radio made, it's still an excellent body of work and adds to P's growing discography of phenomenal albums.
