This albums has some high highs but overall, I feel that there could have been some more interesting production. Also, I don't like how Mike inserted his political views into this, it just comes off as cringy. It feels like im listening to a left-wing Tom Macdonald. The last three tracks are also meh. However, I still really enjoy the first 6 tracks. I'd say everything up until Love Again is pretty good.
75 -> 86
I've been loving Dezel's tiher albums but this one just isn't it. I do love ULTRA SHXT and COLE PIMP, though.
This album is really repetitive. Most songs just blend into the next. The best part of this album are the beats but they are dscent at best.
This is my favorite Kendrick album so far. I've listened to half of TPAB and I prefer this album. My score will likely go up after a few listens
90>95
the user score doesn't lie
There are some albums that you know while listening to them for the first time are absolute masterpieces.
I dont find myself wanting to come back to this. First of all, I was born in 2009 so all of the references completely fly over my head. Second of all, Danger Mouse's beats just weren't that strong here (besides Crosshair, Benzi Box, and No Names). Im sure I would like this more if I was a kid who grew up on early 2000's Adult Swim.
The Roots's early discography just doesn't do it for me. I didn't really enjoy TFA too much and this is more simple than that.
This album is very inconsistent which hurts the overall experience. Would've been lower if not for No More Parties In LA.
I love the production on this album. I love most of what Thought releases nowadays. Crazy how he is still putting out stuff like this despite pushing 50.
I've been listening to this album for a few months and it somehow hasn't become boring. It's like magic.
