84

feeling a nice 84 on this one, constantly good and I really appreciate the experimental rap direction. I feel like resounds like a mix of JID and Baby Keem. Surprisingly I think that 7eleven is overrated, as well as test me. Really think the rest is dope, Be what I want, and street car and the first half are all bangers. Nothing revolutionary but super fun listen.

Holy rollout. this one reminds me of of Shame on the devil but with better lyrics. Both singles are exactly the fresh wind I was craving in the scene. Not as good as good as Blackberry marmelade but still a strong 89 fo me. Man icl hyped af

Nice album, I think this is his best project so far. The first listen was amazing but it got quite repetitive after. I feel like sometimes he could have put a bit more effort in the the project in total (e.g Cover art is not appealing at all and gives EP vibes) and there is something I can't describe (I think it reminds me of my study playlist from the beat section and the sound), but still really strong piece of music. I give it a strong 86, recommending it--good stuff.

Might get receptive after some time, but I just love teccas style of rapping and beat selection is on point as well. What makes this album enjoyable as a project is specifically the transitions that are amazing.
