I'm freshly 49 years old :blessed::ahh::noah::flabbynsick:

And I read all these comments in here

:ufdup:Look here you Young Punks

:pacspit:

:whoa: I get it, I get it yall some whoremongering hoe's and y'all love that raw raunchy explicit R&B

Don't get me wrong I love that RAW explicit R&B too. I grew up off of Bobby Womack, Prince, The Time, Rick James, Chicago Blues and from that era of Jodeci, R.Kelly, Danny Boy (No Homo). I'm also a Big fan of The Dream & House of Balloons era The Weeknd.

And I'm currently a fan of the New Explicit R&B Kings Sir & Brent Faiyaz

But there's a time and place for that shyt, I can't listen to that Explicit Nasty shyt all day and everyday

This New Brent Faiyaz album ICON is a pure R&B album, Raphael Saddiq Executive Produced and Produced and directed this album. And Brent Faiyaz cut out that Explicit shyt and him and Raphael Saddiq delivered.


I'm digging this album alot, this album have that 87-92 R&B feel to it.

This album ain't for you Young Punks! This is for Grown Folks, this is R&B

Been listening since F the world then I went back and listened to his older works. This is his worse album yet and it only has about three good songs here. This sucks cause his last album Larger than Life was way better than this album and it can't even hold a candle compared to Wasteland which had its flaws too. Everything from his singing to his song writing on this one was just bland, these clearly aren't the beats for him. 5/10...play it to sleep to it.

Will be listening… need to step his pen up cause now his narcissism is showing thru the songwriting

and its corny
His narcissism has always shown through his song writing. His song writing was just horrible on this album.

I think this album really put his voice and his singing ability on the front stage. It’s forcing fans/listeners to decide whether or not they enjoy his tone.

I personally enjoy his singing but I understand why/how some others may not.

The album was a breath of fresh air. Certainly not his best, but definitely his most cohesive project.
