Last year, soon after the rap veteran announced his instrumental LP, Questlove took to social media to offer his thoughts on the “next level” tracklist and stir up anticipation for it.

“I am no stranger to the ‘departure album’ […] albums the complete opposite of what the artist is known for,” he wrote on Instagram. “I knew this 3000 jawn was a left turn but I didn’t know it’s the RIGHT left turn.”

Referring to the new record as “good medicine,” he added: “I always said ‘one day imma make the ambient record I’d love to sleep and dream to’ (btw, watching violent shit/sleeping to news/sleeping in stressful environment takes years off your life — so this is why I invest heavy in stuff like this.)”
