From the string and piano driven ░░ introduction on Legacy, to the blissful head-nod vibes of the closing ░░ track, Blind Faith, the union between beats and rhymes sits at the ░░ perfect level. ░░ ░░ The album also boasts one of the most impressive guestlists of the year, ░░ one that is very much a product of both playersÆ worlds. Thanks to ░░ IllinformedÆs Bristol connection, there are features from the likes of ░░ Res One, Datkid, Leaf Dog, Smellington Piff and Chillman, as well as some ░░ locally sourced cuts from DJ Rogue. While on Verb TÆs side of the fence, ░░ we have features from Rye Shabby and Moreone, along with a collaboration ░░ that reignites the same creative spark he found in his early days, as ░░ King Kashmere steps into the booth on Feeling Strange. ░░ ░░ All in all, Stranded in Foggy Times does exactly what it sets out to do, ░░ by drawing the trilogy to a close while also providing insights into Verb ░░ TÆs personal world and the world at large. The fact that it also happens ░░ to be one of the strongest rap albums of the year is the icing on the ░░ cake. ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /─────────────────────────\ ░░░██ ███ ░| learned from vets |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| and they |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| ain't pet doctors |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \─────────────────────────/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/266216032
