Doomtree



My current obsession with P.O.S. led me to further explore Doomtree's self-titled joint. Doomtree (made up of P.O.S., Sims, Dessa, Mike Mictlan, and Cecil Otter) still bring that Rhymesayers sound, but bring something a little more abstract to the table. Excellent production by Lazerbeak, MK Larada, and Paper Tiger use many different kinds of sounds, resulting in a wide array of unusual beats. Lyrically, Doomtree is extremely metaphorical, probably makes sense considered Dessa and Cecil Otter have their roots in spoken word. If you're down with P.O.S., Astronautilus, or El-P, deff check out Doomtree.
