Not so great, one of his worst attempts to make a psychedelic songs here, he doesn't pull it off that well here. There is one good sequense and the outro track is very likeable but other than that, its quite boring and neither NAV or the production do it for me really.

His hardest tape, he went for pure trap here. It's alright most of the time, nothing too special. Boring moments there and there but it's not horrible and the best tracks here are really fun song and most energy he's put on songs. Production really nice, someone else could've used them better though.

NAV's best work imo. Psychedelic beats combined with his weird vocals create nice atmosphere most of the tracks here. The ideas work better than the actual product imo but there are couple great tracks but other than that it's mediocre but not horrible by any means. The lyrics aren't that bad either like his lines are often so out of pocket. I can't believe he got clowned so badly around this time on the internet, I can see the potential but sadly he drifted away from this ... read more
Don't get the hate, much better than some of his other latest stuff. Nice blast from the past with more energy and melodic stuff. Not his best work, but a pretty solid mixtape with lots of fun songs.

Well this is a huge disappointment after the 1st one, really unnecessary for me. 1st disc especially is so boring, I've never had such a bad time listening to their stuff lmao. There's couple nice tracks but other than that its clearly some leftovers/unfinished songs that didn't make it to the album (for a reason). 2nd disc is actually quite nice with mostly bangers but in overall it's alright, but nothing too great from them.
Disc 1: 4/10
Disc 2: 7/10

We don't trust you is to me same level as Savage Mode 2 and Without Warning. The times when Metro Boomin has the best beats in my opinion with something new and interesting in the scene. Also Future is sounding greatest since 2019 and his delivery on this tape is insane compared to his run in 2020-2022. Their chemistry work so well, I mean they are both one of the goats what they do in the modern rap game. Really solid album, couple skips that aren't that great but its a great ... read more
I might prefer NAHWC slightly for the slight edge it has, but this is also really solid. Sounds "cinematic" and polished but Metro and his features pull it off quite well. I wished he'd gone back to his roots a bit more but this sound is also really nice. Solid trap album with quite replay value.

Least fav: Creepin´
Classic, great flows over incredible and lively production. Only 1-2 songs I barely come back to but otherwise this such an accessible album to anyone thats trying to get into hiphop. His rapping voice is so calm too and the instrumentals speaks so well on his delivery. Incredible stuff

One of my favorite albums of all time, how I haven't rated this??? So close to be 10/10 I might add it there tbh. Absolute classic in the hip hop scene when Mos Def and Talib Kweli combined their abilities to make this masterpiece. Has aged well too, there ain't any tracks here that haven't really aged poorly with the production or the lyrics. Such an incredible album with great storyline, production and flows and deliveries from them lot.
I actually prefer All Eyez On Me for the more lively production, but this is pretty much as enjoyable. 2Pac deliveries well with his nice flow and bars and this one is a classic album as well. 2Pac performs here so well especially with his lyricism and wordplays

Might as well rate some classics I've forgotten to. And this is one of the peak classics in the west coast scene, and the recognition and respect this album has is truly deserved. Disc 1 is great, but I prefer disc 2 its almost flawless. Hit after hit what can I say he deliveries here on every track pretty much, features mostly enjoyable and this is the best production 2Pac has had imo.
Disc 1: 8.5/10
Disc 2: 9.5/10
Crackhead makes a pop-rap album. And it's amazing. It's fun, it has the edge and ODB's charactertics are so entertaining. Couple songs are a bit over the top, but in overall it's a great album and a fun experience nonetheless. Production hits so hard especially from The Neptunes and its a collab that works in a way it shoudln't

Vald's new highly anticipated album. A really mixed bag to me, some really nice songs with inspirations from the Detroit scene for example. He's a bit of an trendhopper I can see but he pulls it off quite well. Some fun tracks with loads of energy, some not that special and towards the ending the language barrier hits me, I didn't really enjoy the boom bap style songs at all. In overall it's decent, not too special but couple really good tracks.

Huge album in the French scene I suppose, seen many people saying this is the "prime" french trap album. I don't have the nostalgia factor here, I listened the whole album 1st time only a while back. I can see what is the hype about, it's really trendy at the time and it has aged quite nicely. It's not too phenomenal or anything to me, but it's a very fun rap album with nice influences from trap, drill and even afrobeats a bit. Has replay value and mostly bangers. ... read more
Not as good as the first one for me, but a fun and solid trap album. Production slightly step down with the trends changing but it's not bad by any means. Solid standard performance from Future too.

RIP Young Scooter first of all.
This is such a fun album, product of the current era with the ZayToven instrumentals, which are now looking back very fun here and his production game was so good on this era. Future also going in on this so well. Fun album, easy to get into, nothing spectacluar but it's good.
Favorite: Ooooh, Lay up, aintchu, real sisters, forever eva
Perhaps his most "commercial" style album with much smoother and polished production from his other stuff, which Future pulls off quite well. It's quite an enjoyable album, at some points I wish he went harder but in overall it's nice and enjoyable project with couple skips only, second half lost the interest for a moment but he bounced back so well with the last couple songs that are incredble

One of the better Future albums, a bit underrated I'd say even. Dark and raspy production that's a bit different from his usual style, and Futures voice and delivery compliments the beats well. Every song is quality after quality with some experimentation from his usual style (evolving omg)
Favorite: In her mouth, maybach, lil haiti baby, seven rings, low life, fly shit only
Short and solid project from Future, leaves me kind of hungry for some more. Definitely product of this era and it's not as groundbreaking as his other stuff but nonetheless one of the easiest Future album to listen. Fun trap project with couple classics in there.
