Reception

Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork Media gave So the Flies Don't Come a 7.4 out of 10, calling it "his most fascinating work to date, filling weird, side-winding productions that deflate and wheeze with tumbling lyricism delivered in near spoken word cadences."[1]

So the Flies Don't Come was ranked at number 26 on Rolling Stone's "40 Best Rap Albums of 2015" list.[6] It was ranked at number 37 on Spin's "50 Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2015" list.[7] The New York Observer named it the 5th best hip-hop album of 2015,[8] while The Boston Globe named it the 7th best hip-hop album of 2015.[9]

"Souvenir” was listed by RedEye as one of the 20 best songs of 2015.[10]
