Angels Exodus

Angels Exodus is the third studio album by American rapper Lil B. It was released digitally on January 18, 2011 through BasedWorld Records and Amalgam Digital. It serves as a prelude to Lil B's 2012 mixtape, Glassface.

Music and lyrics
Angels Exodus is based on a loose theme of "Lil B against the undead: zombies and vampires." The first track "Exhibit 6" features "a shout out to Jay Electronica and rhyming over a slow-paced, dark instrumental." The track "Motivation", which features a Tim Hecker sample in the background, is about "Lil B looking back on when people were criticizing him, and observing how now they’re all 'on his dick'." "Cold War, Pt. 2" features a sample from Janelle Monáe's "Cold War." The track "More Silence More Coffins" features a sample from Evanescence's "Bring Me to Life."

Critical reception
The album generally received mixed-to-positive reviews from music critics. Fact magazine critic Chris Campbell stated: "Angels Exodus gives Lil B the chance to indulge his significant conceptual side with some confines" and further wrote: "The only fair way to evaluate a Lil B album is against other Lil B albums/mixtapes, and in terms of quality, he’s certainly released better." Amanda Bassa of HipHopDX wrote: "In some ways, Angels Exodus is impressive for the sheer fact that Lil B seems to have shown some sort of artistic and mental growth since his initial YouTube blitz." Nevertheless, Bassa also criticized the album, stating: "Even mass amounts of hype can’t cover up Lil B’s poorly mixed vocals, off-kilter methods of blending rapping with simply speaking, skewed perspective on life, and utter knack for taking what makes Rap great, and doing the exact opposite."
