Deltron 3030 is a concept album set in the year 3030 that tells the story of Deltron Zero, Del's futuristic alter ego. This is what aconcept album should be. There's only one concept album that is even comparable in terms of quality and execution in my opinion, thatbeing Prince Paul's A Prince Among Thieves. This album has so many strong points it's hard to cover them all. The story is excellent, it fallows themain character as he fights against an oppressive government and massive corporations as well as the current Galactic Rhyme Federation Champion. The productionis handled entirely by Dan the Automator who did a lot of work on the Gorillaz self titled debut. The beats are eerie and dark but also incredibly energetic.Lyrically Del tells a story like no other using social commentary and narratives of epic sci fi battles. This really is an album you need to hear all in onesitting to really appreciate.
