I hate to be "harsh" on my rating, but in my opinion, this is pretty generic. What I can say is I'm impressed by his ability to recapture attention; there are tiny moments of poor vocal inflection (IMO), corny, apparent love lyrics, but the progressive, explosive production and guitar, alongside good harmonies, make you forget the track's flaws. Nonetheless, there are flaws, and a lot of these tracks are forgettable, but there will be a TikTok/Social Media hit, that's ... read more

Maybe I hate summer compilations and cliff diving, but this was not for me. Almost everything about this album is annoying to me, and the introspective core/content of this album is overshadowed by the screech-like vocals.

6LACK is a consistent artist, very consumable, soft, chill. I can understand the appeal, and none of the songs are terrible, but it's just a very stagnant and forgettable album for me. Some of the features have memorable harmonies, but some of the guest verses were very forgettable, yet stuck to the theme.
