Fun and compelling as such high points can be, nothing on this album reaches the strata of the title track.
His talents as a rapper and lyricist are still stunning, and much of the production is solid, but the album ultimately feels like a one-sided conversation with an insecure friend.
For some artists, being self-aware is humanizing. While for others, it can just illuminate their insecurities. Logic’s fifth studio album Confessions of a Dangerous Mind is an unfortunate example of the latter scenario.
Confessions captures the essence of Logic that wants to evolve into something else but is tethered to the past. It’s an entirely unnecessary album that makes technically polished music, almost second to none.
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind sees Logic bankrupt, both creatively and conceptually.
Confessions is far and away Logic's worst rap album.
Logic used to just make trash. His music was not good or even close to good, but he never said any obscenely whack shit nor did he try to be anything more than a rapper. Now he's fucking writing books and damn near preaching everything he says. Fuck off man. You were never the first rapper to speak on mental health, you were the first one to have a charting song about it (it was a pop song anyway, with 2 other big names featured to boost the popularity).

Haha that was funny. So when does the real album release?
Edit: I listened to this with my gf and we couldn’t stop laughing at how bad the hook on Icey was. This is the Eminem - Revival of 2019 and easily one of the worst albums of 2019
I used to really like Logic. I thought he was an excellent rapper with decent lyrics and a funny personality. I liked the guy. And I still do, I like a lot of his stuff (Under Pressure and The Incredible True Story). And hearing he was going to mix Under Pressure with Bobby Tarantino, I was quite intrigued. Maybe this'll be good!
And this is what we got. A haphazard mess of the blandest and the most by-the-numbers Logic music imaginable. A concept album that barely even sticks to its concept ... read more
I had this white co-worker swear this was hot, he was 27 & dating a high school kid at the time.
a few pretty great and fun tracks but overall corny and not great. If you don't take it too seriously, as it seems like it's meant to be, then it's an okay listen.
