Weight Of The World isn’t a reinvention, rather a top-to-bottom, RoboCop-esque improvement on the established formula.
Goddamn, Maxo brought some heat to the table! I've been listening to Maxo Kream since Punken and always appreciated how much he cares for his craft and how creative he can get with his beat selection. On this record he got some pretty amazing takes on experimental rap translating them into a trap format, I guess we can thank Mike Dean for making it sound so crisp (he mastered the entire album) & Mixed By Ali's fingers are around in every song too.

Discovered maxo through the DJ feature of spotify with "BIG PERSONA" which i love and is my fav on this album
