I think with some level of consistency, that behavior inevitably leads you to a point where you have to wait. A point where the things that now need to happen to move you forward are no longer in your control. I see this as a period of time in one's journey, no matter the length, where the unseen things must take place; The muscles must tear and repair, the understanding of a concept coming to you in a moment completely devoid of artistic intention. It’s through these moments where I’ve found myself being the most frustrated with patience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnd this body of work sounds like that frustration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe body of work reflects Jenkins' status as a young veteran in his craft. First breaking out with his 2014 mixtape \u003ci\u003eThe Water[s]\u003c\/i\u003e, he has established himself as one of the most dexterous contemporary lyricists over the course of 3 full length albums and 4 EPs since that mixtape's release. \u003ci\u003eThe Patience\u003c\/i\u003e is the sound of an artist that is still young and at the full height of their artistic powers, wizened by the years spent grinding to reach this point, but eager to prove their continued vitality. The result is Jenkins' most urgent artistic statement since his breakthrough.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4050538944938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rbc Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.10.23\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mick Jenkins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58254464483409,"sku":"596278","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/418467250502_1000.webp?v=1759474786","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/products\/mick-jenkins-the-patience-lp","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
