I think it's great! The further away they stay from Mylo Xyloto's colorful bullshit, the better. I did not care for that album especially being released after possibly their best album.
Even further than being a more mainstream rapper, the other albums in that category (with maybe the exception of Yeezus) were all core rap/hip-hop albums whereas The Heist could be a rap album or a pop album depending on who you ask. It has nothing to do with him being white.
I'm still not sure if I like Modern Vampires of the City better than Lonerism... I get it though, the voters now know who Vampire Weekend is and have no fucking clue who Tame Impala is.
I still listen to Acid Rap on a very regular basis. It's probably the best mixtape I've heard since Drake's So Far Gone. Good things are coming Chance, good things.
I'd like to take this time now to thank James Murphy for writing such a nostalgic gem of a song. He is the real winner here; I'm merely one of his many advocates. I miss you LCD Soundsystem, I really do...
