A Fresh Album Release from Diceman Delivers Character

A new album from Diceman delivers a fresh breed of hip hop that takes old-school and new-school approaches and mixes them with such a vivacious energy that it ends up being quite captivating from the get-go.
The Meaning and Purpose album has a lot of honesty in its lyrical style and this ends up giving you a ton of lush and thick-bodied character along with each song so the whole record almost serves as chapters in the artist's life and this is part of the reason that you want to listen to the whole record from beginning to end.
With each song you get little pieces of the artist and this is something that doesn't come across often so when you get it it's very refreshing.
Having said all that, this record is produced super well and the vocal performance is very tight with a lot of double tracking, and it's all delivered with such a forward-moving flow that when you're done listening to a particular track sometimes you want to go back and start it again just to be able to soak everything in.
This is borderline conscious hip hop but it just does well at telling stories with great detail and it does indeed have tons of swagger behind it but that again just comes from the personality that's given off throughout this record.
By the time you get halfway through, you begin to expect the unexpected, and believe me, there are some surprises around the corners but all in all, this is a super well-performed and woven album that is built with fewer boundaries than the norm which I think is a brilliant aspect.
A lot of these songs are incredibly catchy and danceable so the record comes with just as much color as it does edginess, Swagger, and energy.
Speaking of which, the energy on this record is really part of what makes it work so well.
There is a smoothness and a sort of relaxed backdrop and underbelly to this record so it's kind of laid back but you also have this electric energy that flows through all the songs as well so that is also a great combination of style, flow, charisma, and presence as an artist.
The music aspect of the record is also really fun and is built with intricate styles and changes that let the record sort of breathe.
This was definitely insanely fun and I adore a record that will give off this level of honesty and be able to pack in such lush detail and nuances all the same time because you're getting something that is memorable and that has meaning to the artist as well.
This is definitely not a quick fix for Diceman. This album took time to put together and you can tell just by listening to it.
There is attention to detail and some amazing collaborations throughout the record that all speak volumes for the artist so you know that there is authenticity and heart that all went into this album.
This was an addictive and character-riddled hip hop album that was built with no walls around it so there's a freedom to it and if you listen to the whole record from beginning to end, you won't miss out on the full spectrum of what the album has to offer.
From the music production to the vocal approach, everything here is crisp and refreshing, honest and real.
Check this out when you get a chance and do it with headphones on so you can soak in every element the way it was meant to be.
