ROUTES explores themes of choice, the consequences of one's actions, and growing from harsh conditions and experiences to be a better man for it.
He describes his triumphs and his ability to overcome the hardships he vividly details on this album to be genuinely special and difficult to accomplish for a normal person to do... this nuance is important as it treats overcoming one's situation with the appropriate care and understanding that comes from really living it.
On the boards, August Fanon does his thing delivering dark and dusty instrumentals that fit the murky atmosphere that Sleep paints with his rhymes.
At the high points of ROUTES, lyrical smart-minded hip-hop doesn't get much better than this.
