Music

When checking out a new album:

Do you follow along with the lyrics, or listen first and dive deeper later?

Depends on my time availability & how much focus I can attribute to it. Most of the times I’m just listening through it first!

Literally savoring the music 🔥

I also like the idea of listening together with a group and then discussing first impressions. I feel like it allows ppl to connect more with the music and eachother

I have a pretty keen ear & often times hear a lot of what the lyrics are saying, but not all of it. And I like it that way sometimes, because it gives me a lot of replay value. I may not go into the lyrics until I heard the song 2-5 times already! And even then I won’t belabor them & try to decipher it intensely all at once.

Slow burning the greatness🔥

I feel like I’ve slept on a lot of albums just because I didn’t have time to really focus the first time I listened. Sometimes when I don’t have the lyrics, im like “wow, this sounds dope” just vibing with the production or flows. But then when I actually check out the lyrics, I realize my first impression wasn’t really on point
