(MP3 Format) Reacting to "Descendants of Cain" by Ka

the final song is so touching, i teared up after he passed. truly beautiful

Hey Bob, there’s also another Ka album under a pseudonym called Days With Dr. Yen Lo

I’m remembering more bars from the Solitude of Enoch, of my god “Was wasteful (waist full) as big eyes and a small stomach” is so clean “Kept two, never monochrome, my gift technicolor Like the coat of Joseph, hope it don't affect my brother” - kept two guns so he’s never mono-chrome - never monochromatic, he’s technicolor - Andrew Lloyd Weber’s musical “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcast” - then the weight of the story of Joseph and his coat of many colors - the brothers in the story of Joseph, I mean come on I mean there’s just so much in a few lines 😭 this is one of the few albums where I’d recommend clicking through the genius annotations right before doing additional thoughts

The “brothers killing brothers, descendants of Cain” FLOORED me when I first heard it I mean, what a fantastically potent way of putting that descendants of Cain from the Bible to say that we’re all brothers, but also descendants of the cocaine crisis of the 80s that kickstarted so much of the senseless violence that we see today I don’t know if I’ve ever been so floored at a single line before, my jaw shot to the floor the first time I clocked what he said

Rip ka

The final track crushes me dude Such a beautiful album
