Any critical examination of film must first start with an understanding of the work being studied, and it’s place in history: Why was it made? What else was going on in the time period that it was created in? What did the author intend to express?

One of the most fascinating and talented members of Odd Future, Earl Sweatshirt has already formed a mythology in hip hop culture thanks to his boarding school exile after the release of his first album. Sweatshirt is by far one of the strongest rappers in Odd Future, working on his talent like Frank Ocean does on his singing, or Tyler the Creator does on crazy productions.
