Review by Hayden
This is Gil Scott Heron at his most stark and honest. I feel like this is the work of his where you can see the deepest into his personality as an individual, rather than his worldview or perspective on his environment.
Heron reflects on his life, his legacy, and his mistakes over dark and atmospheric instrumentation, combining to create a truly unique piece of art, all the more worth listening to after his death. Gil Scott Heron is a generationally influential artist and his final piece is the perfect capstone to his impact.
