honestly, Ghost has given us TOO MUCH good music at once. Like, hard to digest it all. Haha.
Twelve Reasons was amazing. That album to me is top tier Ghost (Ironman, Pretty Tony level).
36 Seasons was dope. That's like the 2nd tier.
Sour Soul is prob 2nd tier too. (Question I've been meaning to ask, did anybody take the cover art as a reference to Live Love/Long Live?)
Twelve 2 is great tho. It's as good and maybe better than 1. BUT I think I preferred the beats on 1... I prefer all the guests on 2. (speaking of, I love that Ghost is getting on tracks w/ people like Danny Brown, Vince Staples, etc these days).
But yeah need more time. I mean think, he's dropped 3 solid albums in less than 12 months. He's going MF DOOM circa early 00's grind now.
Having said all that, these 4 albums that I'm talking about are all great. Great great. 4/5 or 5/5 star albums. BUT... I would not mind hearing a new Ghost album that had producers and samples instead of live bands. I'm kind of surprised I"m saying that since he sounds so natural on these, and I love live bands in hip hop. But, a change would be refreshing too.
tl;dr - I love what Ghostface is doing and I'd love if he did something else.
