Can’t front, I’ve had this on repeat literally all day. Maybe played it twenty times by now. The original “Hometown Hero” is great, the beat which features a sample Adele’s “Hometown Glory” on the hook is really killer but live with a live band/vocal (SF’s Grillade) on top it just takes the song to this just really powerful place. I mean, you really feel the song’s sentiment, it’s very very immediate. The guitar, K.R.I.T.’s flow, the vocal quality, it all draws you in, pulls at you to the studio where this session was cut, to the place where K.R.I.T. first put pen to the song’s rhymes, to your own home, your place of birth. All of that once. It’s amazing.
