doesn’t hold a candle to the first one but that was to be expected when the features list of pusha T, 38 spesh, Black Thought, conway, and jadakiss are replaced by 2 Chainz, Chinx, Fat Joe, Rick Hyde, jim jones, and umm french montana for some reason. but bennys rapping is on par with his previous works the beats are very nostalgic sounding in typical griselda fashion harry fraud killed it on the production side and it overall is a very good listen
holy shit who is this. best hip hop debut since at least saturation and with time i think i might end up preferring smiling with no teeth out of the two. genesis owusu shows he can do anything and everything, the first song reminds me of a death grips track, and there’s also songs on this things that are extremely pleasing r&b/neo-soul. easily my aoty so far.
just writing this to let people know danny brown has a verse on here, that’s all
so mediocre it became bad, feels far longer than 37 minutes the denzel curry erick the architekt and joey badass feature was the top 3 verses, most tracks weren’t necessarily bad just absolutely nothing production or rapping wise standing out , the worst part is he’s got a good voice, and flow but he thinks he’s a lyricist.i enjoyed Nyck @ Knight a few years ago it was more about flowing and making good tracks than trying to fit in with pro era. Bad Day off this albums another ... read more
there’s 2 bonus tracks that aren’t on streaming just some physicals one of thems one of the best on the whole album if you haven’t heard “Narcotics” i’d def check it out on Youtube or soundcloud
he’s been on my radar for a while now, listened to and enjoyed most of the falling man, honestly though this continues the trend of having full length albums that are imo not that great or attention keeping, this was super boring for the first 1/4 honestly luckily it picks up some but everytime i hear music from him it just feels like so much misplaced talent
i’m pretty sure i love this now but i’m not sure i also might not this is weird i’ve listened to this before multiple times and hated it but i’m tripping while listening and writing this and i’m still not sold entirely but the production has me intrigued as hell its so interesting in a good way
edit: even sober i’ve been replaying this a lot i thought i hated this first couple listens but it just grows on me with every listen it’s one of the best ... read more
this must be what SRS sounds like to people who were disappointed in it.
a lot less consistent than i remmeber with choruses that hurt the replay value of many songs, still remarkable but slightly overrated
if this was only the best 7-10 songs it would be great there are flashes of the eminem i love on here and more of them then any of his recent albums but there is way too much filler and the filler is beyond just filler it’s unlistenable, it’s an 50 year old who has never in his life been able to sing yell/singing in the most ear piercing way
the highs are high as fuck and show that FBZ will become one of my personal favorite artists/groups but i would be lying to say this isn’t half obnoxious filler. like the highs are “wow these kids could take over the game” and the lows are like earwrenching, with that being said to be fair it’s 9 years old and i still regularly listen to 5 or so songs on here so i can’t say it’s bad it’s a mixtape AND a debut and while i HATED parts of it, i came away ... read more
why the fuck are all the new songs mixed in randomly lmaooo i had to look through all the songs from the original wunna i forgot about to find the new ones that pissed me off, anyway that doesn’t effect my score of the 8 new songs
incredibly overhated, i understand the want for a solo album but him and jay z fit so well together, and we still got a solo album from him this year. and the damn production is for the most part amazing this is my first listen and i’m so disappointed in myself for not listening earlier bc of the bad reviews and not wanting to be disappointed i was very excited for this album but then it felt like the longer i can avoid the longer i can avoid disappointment but this things incredible and ... read more
yes it’s just a worse kanye/gambino sound but it’s also a fucking debut album from a kid we all thought would be horrible i absolutely love some of the tracks on here mostly due to the production i’ll admit, but while that can be said about many trap artists we don’t all count that against them, it pissed me off when he kept talking about dirty dishes the intro especially is very memorable
wow so logic realized young Sinatra can indeed rhyme with young sinatra...for EIGHT lines straight...
the features tried so hard to carry him 2 chainz had an amazinggg verse on state of emergency, wiz khalifa had one of his best verses ever on indica badu but logic just shitted all over this project horrible auto tune, the worst travis scott impression maybe ever on wizard of oz
