Exiting Arm (stylized as ExitingARM) is the third studio album by American hip hop sextet Subtle.[10] It was released on Lex Records in 2008.[6] The album is "the latest chapter in the story of Hour Hero Yes, the middle-class rapper whose rise and struggles are chronicled told on 2004's A New White and 2006's For Hero: For Fool."[5]
Reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Exiting Arm received an average score of 75% based on 14 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[1]
Christopher Bahn of The A.V. Club gave the album a grade of B, writing: "Musically, ExitingARM is just as layered, blenderizing beats, sampled electronic noise, and Doseone's easygoing, flowing words into a package that's sometimes electrifying and sometimes confounding."[3] Eric Grandy of The Stranger said: "Throughout ExitingARM, frontman Doseone remains an inscrutable MC, quick-tongued and verbose, and an unassuming but surprisingly fluid singer, whispering melodies in multitracked reverb to contrast his sharper falsetto raps."[9]
