His previous shyt is super trash but this is a legit great album :whoo:

Production is crazy and 21 rapping like he's not asleep.

Biggest surprise of the year and one of the best albums of the year.

Cut the album to 10 songs and it's perfect.

Ok fellas, I love tha whole album & it had a few traccs that turnt into my fav so ima gone head & hit yall wit it

Most ignorant line:
All my brothers did a bid (Straight up)
When they came home, we was rich (Straight up)
Fuc 40 acres & a mule, they got 50 racs & a sig

Funniest lines:
Tha choppa can hit all of yall, yo brotha yo goldfish & dawg. :damn::pachaha:

Fav feature song: A&T
I'm 21 'bout it baby, I need that cash, you feel me?
So, if you ain't got that bag, don't grab my ass, you hear me?

Before I walk around trying to act like I'm something I ain't, I quit rapping (On God)
I helped her start selling bundles of weave, you wouldn't even get her hair done (21)


Favorite line:
You nikkas mad 'cause I keep throwin' up Zone 6, huh? (Lil' bytch)
Like "Look at Savage, lil' bytch ass, he think he the shyt, huh?" (Facts)
I think I am when I'm ridin' with this stick, huh (21)
I think I am 'cause I just fukked that nikka bytch, huh (On God)
I swear to god my deal worth seven figures, not six, huh (Straight up)
You think you hard, you wanna get shot all up in yo' shyt, huh?

Line I learned from:
I'm so 4L I keep a gloc 90 XD.
(One of my old street potnas had an XD & I asked him what he had he said it's an XD, I never knew who made XD or what model it was & I'm 90% sure them niccas I was gettin money wit didnt kno it eitha)

Random Lines I Enjoyed:
She thought tha ac was on it was just my ice
Savage left his gun at home nicca yea right

Closest thing yall gettin to a handshake is the beat clapping

Roll the window down, stick the Glock out (Stick the Glock out)
This chopper got a AMP, I'ma rock out (I'ma rock out)
Drive by naa we tha walk up gang.
I come from tha 6 where we chalk up lames
Both sides of the gun, I done dealt and felt the pain (On God)

You made it from tha gutta then I'm tippin my hat
I'll neva snitch on my enemy or my bros

So many drums he gone think a band hit him

Keep my Desert Eagle on me, he not nothin' nice
I just need one Glock, Nas need one mic



Ball w/o u
I gave you my all (My all)
You was my dawg (You was my dawg)
I would have went to war with the world on your call (On your call)
Thought you had my back (Nah)
You let me fall (Let me fall)

When it came to havin' your back, I'm so real
I prolly would've gave you my spine (Straight up)
I'd rather have loyalty than love
'Cause love really don't mean jack (Straight up)
See love is just a feeling
You can love somebody and still stab them in the back (Oh God)
It don't take much to love
You can love somebody just by being attached (21)
See loyalty is a action
You can love or hate me and still have my back (Facts)

Mama told me don't spend all my money witha jeweler :mjgrin:
I bought some real estate plus I'm investin' in my shooter:birdman:


Favorite Song: 4L

Captain Save-A-Ho, you might get shot in your cape (On god)
nikkas drop a mixtape, then they tattoo they face (Lil' p*ssy)
nikkas drop an album, then pretend to be gangsta (Lil' bytch)
Imaginary hood, you gon' make it up, ain't you?
He done made up dead homies, man this nikka a prankster
I got nikkas down to roll, for our flock, they'll shank you (On God)


Cap-ass, rap-ass, battery in tha back ass
You know you ain't built like that, play and get your ass smashed
All black ski mask, pull up on your street fast
Bodybag a nikka ass, throw his body in the trash
I'm a young trap ass, strapped-ass, no time for the yap ass
Get a nikka clapped ass, Zone 6, ride around with it in my lap ass
Leave your man's brain in your muthafuccin lap ass nikka :ooh::krs::ohlawd:

Nudy def did his shyt 2.

Final verdict: 10/10 but I wasnt fuccin wit out 4 tha night :stylin::dj2::mj::eat:

At what point does 21 mumble at all on this album smh? Mumble must be code for southern

I'm saying, does he sound like Scarface or Andre2k, or Wayne even?.. 21 got that potential doe. I understand Southern has that drawl and no one do it better than T. I.. I don't call him mumble either.

Now Migos, Kodak, Young Thug to name a few are the mumble ones to me.

Never really fukked with 21’s previous projects before. I do think the feautires I heard him on in 2018 def surprised me and for that reason I did check this album out. I find myself listening to it more and more and more. I’m enjoyong it.
