Real talk, wale dropped a masterpiece last year. I know his brand may not have the same energy and charisma as Drake, Kendrkck, or even Meeks but his album was incredible and it's highly slept on...


So let's acknowledge this modern day masterpiece. Come drop your fav Wale jawns from the album and overall.

Wale really one of the best young MCs doing it

IMO, The Album About Nothing is better than Viewe and TLOP



No hype no weird as social media campaigns


No fashion show at Madison Square


Just great music

Really dope album his best album imo :salute:

Album went under the radar imo because critics and some fans was expecting a mixtape about nothing vibe with more go go type beats.

It was totally different than the mixtape:francis:

I actually think that mixtape was a gift and a curse for wale what you'll think :patrice:

He need beef . He's not gay enough for hipsters and he's not hood enough for for the casual fan . Kylie Jenner and her friends can't dance to his music on snap chat .

Wale should be a legend , but his first album is super soft . He has moments of greatness on it , but it's not much other than those moments .

They first couple tracks on Ambition are :wow:

Wale isn't a gimmick and it hurts him .

He needs to slay a dragon :manny:

It's Wale's fault the album didn't have any hype. He had the perfect window to drop it, between Dec. 2014 - Feb 2015.

He waited trying to dodge other artist, and then out of nowhere Kendrick's album dropped an nobody cared about his album. It was good, but The Gifted is better to me.
