Overall, the album is a step up, with some of Lil Yachty's most infectious songs and a deeper dimension slowly starting to show around the corners of his monotone style.

At times, ‘Lil Baby 3’ comes close to grappling with maturity, but Lil Yachty’s version of adulthood feels distinctly shallow.

The presence of personalities like Lil Yachty’s should be welcomed, but the execution still needs to be there.

Even if it's not really the album and the trajectory I would have liked for Lil Yachty, Lil Boats 3 shows that he has managed to make up for it, by starting from afar, to offer a bounce and pleasant album.

If a new Lil Yachty album is expected by his detractors to find another way to beat him up, I'd say that as a fan of his early days he didn't really steal it. Personally, 4 years ago, I was totally seduced by his Lil Boat mixtape, which despite all the absurdity of its themes, lyrics and ... read more

A bloated soulless generic filler trap album. Nothing memorable about this trilogy closer, except maybe the fact that the features on here make Yachty sound so lame, especially on TD and Pardon Me.
