[Edit 12/1/22: okay it's amazing lmao. Much better than Bin Reaper 3 even though that's also a banger album. This one just has so much more charm, his best album.]

I doubted... and I am ashamed. BabyTron is a music phenomenon.

I was NOT expecting this. This is the first-ever project I have heard from BabyTron, I actually haven't even listened to a full song from him until now. I have heard the name but I have never had the urge to listen to his music. So when I started this album, I was underwhelmed at first. No change in flow for the whole first song. That stuff gets annoying to me very easily, and my friend was telling me he always has the same flow. Knowing that information and also seeing how long the tracklist was, I thought there was no way he can keep me interested for more than an hour. Well, he did continue the same flow throughout the entire album; but somehow BabyTron did the impossible and kept it interesting till the very end of the hour runtime.

BabyTron seems to rely on tempo switches instead of changing up his flow and with his delivery and it works extremely well. The biggest thing that helped was the sheer versatility of the production. Like HOLY SHIT he has an incredible ear for beats. From songs with glitchy production to beats with incredible soul samples, TO THE FUCKING JURASSIC PARK THEME. BabyTron keeps everything fresh despite the samey flow. The production is the SECOND best part of this album though, the best attribute to BabyTron I will explain with one sentence. If someone created an AI to deliver the most clever bars back to back, you would get BabyTron. He is extremely witty with how he writes lyrics and it never fails to keep me entertained.

Great album. Really great album. This is one of the most surprising and engaging listens I have had with an album in a long time, I sure had a lot of fun. Although it isn't perfect, the biggest flaw with this album is there are just filler songs here. Near the beginning and towards the end of this album you just have songs that aren't as good as the others, but there isn't a bad song here, truly. I will be listening to other projects from BabyTron and DEFINITELY will keep up with him in the future.

Best Track: Manute Boi, Peachtree, Cobra Kai, Beyond Turnt, Alien 51*, Mr. Do The Dash, Extra Butter, Crocs & Wock', BMF, Chess Players, 6 Star Wanted Level, Mainstream Tron, Hustle Junkie, God Tier, December 1st, Hold Up, Wait!, RIP VIRGIL, The Lost World*
Worst Track: 10 Toes Wherever
