primitive plus is a lot more straightforward, it's awesome.

Yeah, I've got them both. Primitive Plus is more straightforward and funnier, but B&tB is just amazing, far better IMO. 10/10.
His sampling is crazy.

edan's definitely bringing it back to the oldschool as far as technique and lyrics go, but the sound on this album is mad fresh!! boston cats hes coming back to do a show sometime this winter

its one of the most unique hip hop records i've ever heard, his whole way of combining raw old school flow with 60's samples makes it a great listen, i never get bored of it
the only album that really resembles this in any way is 1988 by Blueprint cause of the old school influence
both are classic

Primitive Plus was good but this album really blew me away.....the production is fuckin great straight through....and he really improved his song-writing skills
Anyone who hasnt seen his live show should when the opportunity arises.....he isnt the first to do it but his record cuttin and MCing at the same time is crazy
I heard Rap Beautician...great track

on one track he does a cover of Count Bass D song, otherwise I'm surprised at his lyrical work
A LYRICAL AND MUSICAL MASTERPIECE.

I say classic
one of the best produced hiphop albums ive ever heard

Damn, this definitely has the best vocal production I have ever heard. It is literally like an extra instrument on most of the tracks!
Lyrically this is tight too. There's one track that isn't my cup of tea but the rest is top class. The lyrics and music go perfectly hand in hand and creates some of the most vivid stuff I've heard in a long, long time.
One of my favourite tracks on the album:

butter album.
this album made me rethink what you can do with hip-hop
