Gibbs on 'one way flight'

Love this record man.

Am I crazy or am I the only one that can hear Drake on this ?

Reminds me of 8 Outta 10 off Scorpion

The first part of this album felt like Rocafella shyt. Hit bounoutdid himself

Yo he actually sounds like Hov to me on parts of a Thank God I Made It.

I just said the same thing. His whole cadence and delivery seems influenced by blueprint Hov

My expectations were AOTY contender and he somehow exceeded that. Unreal how good this is.

It's crazy.

Another thing I love about Benny is that he takes a lot of time between albums. It'll be 2 year anniversary of Tana Talk 3, and the only solo he did between then and today is Plugs I Met. I know he's on mad features for other artists and did the little collab EP with DZA and Pete Rock, but in terms of solo material, he understands the power of leaving people wanting more.

IMO that's an under-spoken about factor to most of the all-time greats.

[just my thoughts]

This should end all the debate. Benny is not better than Conway. Conway had the superior album this year as well.


As far as the album This is Coli hype on initial release as always. This was light honestly

Who thought Benny was better

 

[African_brehda]

This one didn’t hit me over the head like From King to a God did but a very solid offering from Benny. Great rapping from Benny but the beats aren’t really as hard as I was preparing for.

Exactly. The beats just sound lifeless.

[AJtheOne]
