Definitely a return to form compared to his last few albums (Token of Appreciation is also fire)V Don did his thing on here as well.

It's quantity over quality with all those forgettable projects.

Dude would be higher in regard if he only bothered working on the classic sh*t, than just dropping whatever to stay active. He's not even letting the good sh*t breathe because he's gonna have another weak project coming in like 2-3 weeks with a producer nobody cares about.
I respectfully disagree with your assessment.

Alphabet Highway is FIRE.

Token of Appreciation is FIRE.

The Bricktionary is FIRE.

Across the Tracks is FIRE.

Penalty of Leadership is FIRE.

That is legitimately 5 FIRE albums since January of last year and that is unheard of! You can write off his other works as just some throwaway shyt but he has some FIRE tracks scattered on Hommage, Permanent Ink, Murder During Traffic, Hidden in Plain Sight. He has quality tracks on every project. He is on a ridiculous run. For me, he is dropping way too much heat for me to criticize. He has another album with Real Bad Man May 2nd!!! The album RBM just produced for Willie The Kid is super dope! I can only imagine Boldy is going to kill that shyt as well. Still expecting another Alchemist album, Dilla, etc. Bro on a legendary run :whoo: He’s gonna drop an album every month this year :blessed:

Coming from the era of lazy ass rappers I appreciate his work ethic :russ:

It's obvious this style of production is right up his alley! I don’t mind Boldy venturing beyond his usual territory, and his collab with Antt Beatz definitely has more appeal than Permanent Ink or the RichGains projects, but this one right here?


Man, the beat choices really hit the mark, and V Don’s no rookie when it comes to trap vibes either. The few trap beats they go with, Boldy sounds way more at ease compared to some of his other stuff.
Fingers crossed this kicks off a solid partnership between them—would love to see V Don become a regular go-to like Alchemist and Craven.

Will have to run through it again, b/c I had it on in the background while I was doing shyt around the crib. I liked it, but didn't love it. I thought the production would be darker than it was, based on the first single, and V Don's last project. Still was dope tho.

Only song I wasn't feeling was the joint about buying designer shyt for some hoe :camby:

Nah, I can respect that.

I dig the work ethic too, but I ain't f*cking with the rushed albums with the no name producers, lol. ALC, Conductor and V...and I'm good.
