When billy woods released "Today, I Wrote Nothing" ten years ago, it was an unexpected departure from a rapper who was just starting to make waves in the indie rap scene. "TIWN" was comprised of short vignettes, quietly eclectic production, and the only guests were his Backwoodz label-mates.

Reviewers didn't know quite what to make of the record, and in many cases, neither did fans.

As is often the case for woods' albums, many perspectives shifted as the years passed. Listeners came to see the sad, quiet beauty of "Today, I Wrote Nothing"; a road trip album that doubles as a meditation on life's journeys and death's hiding places.

The album's power is in its intimacy, its insistence on holding your hand through the darkness. Now, "TIWN" is considered one of the more unique and vital records in woods' catalogue.
