big step down from I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU, he chooses a similar flow for every song and nothing really stands out. for the most part the production boils down to random noises and he is literally running away from the beat in almost every song
Its pretty good, around the same level as Views and More Life but nothing groundbreaking
EDIT: After relistening this is a bit better than views and more life for me, overall pretty consistent unlike more life and i think this album is good enough for it to be just barely top 5 in his discography
Pretty good, but some of the songs feel like half-songs or demo unreleased songs. Samples and production are really good and songs like All the love and I can't Wait are great. He ruined songs like Circles, and Last Breath is still as mid as ever, but better than expected to be honest but the highs are high on this album
Wow very nice. The Luv(sic) pt3 and grande finale have the best production ever and the sample flips throughout are some of the best
Cool songs like Risk It All On My Soul and Why You Wanna Fight? But apart from that everything else sounds like pretty generic love pop songs
feels like a random assortment of songs, which are all decent, not too good nor bad just eh. album kind of feels directionless, going from an introspective song like I am not a Lyricist to $ex Appeal is a bit weird but at least both songs are good. Good Flirts is a disappointing, boring song with a lacking Kendrick feature, the title track on the other hand is a pretty good exhibition of Keem's rapping with a nice production.
Just finished listening, and damn, finally after 8 years this shit has finally dropped and I can say that it did not disappoint at all. but man its definitely bittersweet considering this is probably cole's final project.
Disc 1 is full of hype and great moments, the production bangs on Two Six, WHO TF IZ U, and Drum n Bass. Lonely at the Top is a great introspective cut that hits hard, even though its a bonus I think its a great outro track for disc 1. VEEERYYY GOOOOD
Disc 2 is much ... read more
not good for an 8 year wait some great songs like stay hear for life and the title track but overall most songs were average. STFU and doechii song were verrrryyyyy baaaad
Album is kind of bland with boring production and lackluster features. Some songs like WHERE YOU FROM, STEPBROTHERS, CODE OF HONOR, and GANG OVER EVERYTHING are pretty good though. Drake feature is decent I guess, the songs with GloRilla and Latto were terrible.
