The few instances in which he raises his voice sound less than natural, and when he expresses pain and regret, he sounds like he's either numb or simply not connected to the sentiment.

Short review:

Bryson Tiller is boring. His vocal approaches and songwriting is very standard and dime a dozen. It does little to make him stand out from many in contemporary Rnb. If I closed my eyes, all I'd picture is Drake or Jeremih.

I get that he's super influential for his fusion of trap & RnB, but I feel like he's been surpassed by many of his contemporaries. There really isn't anything Tiller is doing to grip me. I really don't intend on returning to this project.

Such a great album, love his voice.

Very infectious hooks and when Bryson raps, it's very good, great singer and pretty good rapper

Don't & Exchange are pretty nostalgic tracks for me and for a moment last year I was obsessed with Sorry Not Sorry and I still love it

Favorite track is Sorry Not Sorry

Nothing unique & distinct here, just a solid trap & R&B album with great vocals, solid production, and interesting samples. I understand why Bryson Tiller is influential for fusing the genres of R&B and trap, but this album didn’t made a cultural splash.
