    Funny/cute how when citing slick productions in the past, Ezra chose to shoutout his Father in Laws magnum opus (Thriller)

    Capricorn is too relatable
    He's right. I got three days when i was born and that was between Xmas, New Year and a sibling whose birthday was right after.
    No time for us.
    So I turned to theology and the past for answers. None yet but I'm grateful for the shot 🤘🌞

    This album is fantastic. I’ve listened to it at least a dozen times so far. Gets better each time. Notice something new each time. Probably either #1 or #2 VW album for me.

    • @mattw8350
      @mattw8350 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Yeah it’s competing with MVOTC as best VW album to me. Very much on par with Contra which has always been second, sometimes first for me

      I do not feel like the interviewer is too interested in the album, tbh. Polar opposite of Zane Lowe. I agree with the criticism that Zane Lowe interrupts way too much, but at least I feel that he is connected with the music. His interviews often have a fan discussion-like quality, which is great.

      @@PhilomenaCunt I guess you could be right, I feel like this interviewer doesn't really try to expand on the topics ezra talks about and just tries to get to the next question without going more in-depth
