Some 10/10 tracks that speak about the duality/contradiction of Damso's character with some out of this world production all the wayrA guy who knows he's a bad person, but assumes it all the wayrWhen the album focuses on that (Dieu ne meant jamais, Mosaique solitaire, macarena, kietu), it is incrediblerHowever, the album can lose itself in terms of production and lyricism on songs like Kin La Belle, Gova, Love or Noob Saibot.

This one right here is Dems' best record and also stands tall amongst the best modern Belgian albums. It's, as of the pre-QALF period, the best iteration of himself: more focused than Batterie Faible, less filler-full than Lithopedion. That's also the record where he finds the perfect balance between lit bars and sung parts, his melodic side shining on tracks like "Macarena" or "#QuedusaalVie", the latter being his way of displaying his rapological technique in the verses only to accentuate the catchiness of the chorus. It's the one Dems record with the most massively successful singles, with an intelligent balance between egotrip ("J Respect R") and sadboi stuff ("Mosaique Solitaire"), the beats also all combining hard-hitting drums, African vibes, and atmospheric synths. And for y'all nerdz, he's a big Agnes Obel fan and frequently s/o her. Bref. Regarding Belgian popular culture, Ipseite is a classic. Bruxelles Vie.
