"The Wizard" has an easy-speaking, back-to-basics delivery and a smoldering voice, covering topics from the fallacy of success, dissing fakers, and comic books. (All three coming together in "Giant Man vs Ant Man") The beats recall Bomb Squad production, combining wide-ranging musical sample textures and dialogue with sirens and harsher sounds.

Finding Wizdumb like a breathe of fresh air you forgot existed. In a world saturated with auto-tune and crappy beats, this album and his others give me new faith in humanity. Thanks Wiz!

Dusted beats and super-evocative rhymes from the lowkey brilliant rap renaissance man. Specs' beats are always on some conjurational magic - gliding, droning, bumping, incorporating environmental noises, etc. Rhymes are most powerful here on The Question - a beautifully melancholy memory drift through old Seattle in the face of the city's gentrification - "First avenue used to smell like Afrosheen". Add his casual-precise delivery and great voice and The Question thumps me hard in the soul.
