Extremely raw and emotional record. It's very difficult to digest everything I just listened to. The idea to make this more of a pop record really helps bring a lot more enjoyment to actually listening to these songs although they are extremely uncomfortable and visceral.
This album played on the themes of hope with Little Panda McElroy then dragged the listener through the hellish landscape of sad realities. Nieces Pieces caught me quite off guard and emotionally wrecked me.

PRESSURE / BOW WOW - 7/10
I love hearing more Merlyn in my life, pretty clean and fun first half. The second half kinda felt like I time travelled back to the Saturation days so that was a cool moment and other than that there wasn't that much more to talk about. A little bit too short for the content it had.

Fuck me... Composition is absolutely incredible.
No other word can describe this album as perfectly as "Nurture"
It's enlightening, uplifting, and fully aware of the pain people are suffering.
Beautiful.
I don't know.
Obviously listening to the first song in this album can be shocking for almost anybody. There was a huge distaste in my mouth when this album began with me realising there is over an hour of this pretentious shit but since there was a lot of praise around this album I continued with an open mind.
It was only around "Ella Guru" and "Hair Pie: Bake 1" where I actually started to like some of the out of this world and disgusting chords which were smashing ... read more
The range of sounds and messages on this album are absolutely breath taking. This project shows each member harnessing their strengths becoming not only better performers and artists but better people in general.
BUZZCUT is one of my favourite songs this year, Kevins energetic verse was super refreshing as he is usually always laid back. OH AND THE DANNY BROWN FEATURE?? HOLY SHIT. This also was the first hint of Joba's domination of the album.

Bold as fuck. I cannot hate this at all even though it's stupid as shit. The hooks and melodies are actually brilliant and this is such a fun ride to listen to.
