Album Review: THEESatisfaction - EarthEE

"Pithy prose never sounded sexier."

THEESatisfaction return with a long overdue second album, a confident production as much a club record as awE naturalE was a record for the street. Tunes float around in syrupy amber textures and the two women rap with restraint and finesse.

If the heart ruled awE naturalE then the head rules this one. Where the first was all hot asphalt streets and loose trains of thought, EarthEE is a much smoother ride, richer production suggesting far more patience and introspection, personal agency and other “Big Questions” still forming the bulk of their rhymes. Pithy prose never sounded sexier.
