Dreams is fantastic top 25 pop song oat solidified and The Chain is also amazing but to be honest its not a very consistent album and the guy is kind of a terrible vocalist
Has some of the highest highs in his entire catalog 6 Foot 7 Foot, President Carter, Outro, Megaman hell even the drake track is great but you also have alot of mediocre tracks
Better Version Of Me is the best rap song of the 2000s
Also fuck anyone who rates this below a 80 this is definitely one of her best

In a pretty mediocre year for music across most genres this is a shining highlight

Somehow better than his previous such a beautiful listen I rarely feel sad while listening to music (because I'm a cold heartless bastard) but this album made me tear up and I have to respect it for that

This is 100% my bias and how overplayed these songs are I literally heard all these songs everywhere and still do tbh
