I can get why this has such a high rating, but this really ain’t for me.
For the positives, this album is pretty creative and unique, especially in comparison to the underground. The production here sounds clean and slayr himself flows nice on some of these tracks. The issues I have with it? It sounds like it’s trying to do too much. It came off as really anthemic and that kinda just felt like it was doing too much for its run time. That anthemic feeling got really played out ... read more
Dumbest thing I’ve seen today.
Even if this isn’t AI, it doesn’t take away from the main point. He clones Ken Carson in every single manner possible. Voice, lyrics, flows, aesthetic, etc, and to make the selling point of your music “Oh, they say I’m a Ken Carson clone but I do me” or “Oh, they say I clone but I’m still good though” is so dumb to me. No one has blew up off of me being a clone of someone and maintained that popularity ... read more
My bad, but I truly don’t get the high rating.
J.Cole on here I would say comes with his most unique approach to an album I’ve seen from him along with some of his best flows, but the main thing that drags this down so far is each track being around 4-5 minutes when over half of these songs don’t have the presence for that length. The sound of half these songs doesn’t vary. Along with that, the approach J.Cole takes on them doesn’t change too much either. It feels ... read more
Won’t lie, I’m surprised by how much I enjoyed this.
I know it says 47, but I thought I’d have to tap out at like track 10. The one thing that kept me engaged was that Youngboy’s energy is deadass entertaining as hell. Whether if he actually flowing good or not, the fact he had energy at all gave him a plus for me. When it comes to the rest of this album though, it rely shouldn’t be 30 goddamn tracks. Split this in half and the score would probably be higher. The ... read more
8 years aside, this album isn’t that good to begin with.
For the positives however, this is a pretty unique album with some great ideas. I got the sense that these ideas for the production and flow took time. I don’t know about 8 years time, but valuable time nonetheless. Alongside that, the consistency of genre changing is something I commend Rocky for. For the negatives though, I really just don’t like his rapping style. This isn’t like a one album thing, but ... read more
