The Death of Frequent Flyer is a studio album by American rapper Psalm One. It was released on Rhymesayers Entertainment in 2006.

Reception

Nathan Rabin of The A.V. Club gave The Death of Frequent Flyer a B+ rating and said, "Flyer loses some of its laconic, conversational charm in its weaker second half, but the album still serves notice that the great Chicago hip-hop explosion of '06 has officially gone co-ed."[2]

Mike Schiller of PopMatters gave the album 7 stars out of 10, saying: "She has the flow to match her lyrics, expertly navigating a 6/8 or busting out with a few lines of double-speed action just as easily as she takes down a typical 4/4."[6] Dalia Cohen of Exclaim! commented that "[the] beats range from smooth and laidback with twang-y, blues guitar riffs and soulful vocal loops to some Latin and Indian inspired rhythms, some upbeat joints and straight-ahead hip hop."[4]
