I love this album, and I'm not sure why....

"This isn't a "must-own for any hip-hop fan." This isn't a "chart-topping hit." I'm not even sure I would label it as hip-hop, it's got a cool folk feel on a couple songs. I picked this album up on a hunch at a library, thinking I recognized the name "cLOUDDEAD" from somewhere. I didn't, although I had heard Dose One before on the Aesop Rock track "Odessa." This was nothing like Dose on that song, but I liked this album anyway. Maybe you will too."

"The genre as a whole has grown stale, the same recycled beats and ideas for the last twenty-something years. Hard gangster or lofty-intellectual are irrelevant, the production is much the same. So many are anxious and ready to criticize this album for breaking the conventional boundries of hip-hop, as it does just that. "Ten" represents the linear progression that is necessary in order for hip-hop culture to survive. The album plays on boundries of genre, an amalgamation of influences so vast an untraditional that on the first few listens it becomes abrassive to an average listener. However, consider yourself encouraged to dig deep into this album and keep listneing, eventually you will understand. After all, is that not the music that has lasted the longest? The old set of albums you listen to still, from years past that took time to comprehend, albums you've had to invest a part of yourself in. "Ten" is the oyster with the pearl that you keep, not the one you swallow whole and throw away.
