About
<i>The Listening</i> introduced the world to the blend of 9th Wonder's soulful and chunky beats—which the producer teased out of budget software—and MCs Phonte and Big Pooh's lyrics, which flip between book-smart and cocky. The melancholic "Speed" skillfully weaves together references to Dred Scott, Brand Nubian, and Baryshnikov over an emotion-drenched beat, while the bluegrass-sampling "The Way You Do It" has the group reflecting on early days spent paying dues.
