Substantial’s LP, Adultish out now

“Substantial‘s fifth solo studio album grapples with the tricky question of how a hip-hop artist can grow old within the culture while both retaining their creative zest and avoiding succumbing to bitterness and resentment toward younger generations. It’s a take that the Virginia-based MC and producer delivers from atop a deep vault of releases dating back to 2001’s jazz-centric debut To This Union A Sun Was Born (which features beatwork by the sadly departed Nujabes).”

- Phillip Mlynar of Bandcamp
