Man Bustas voice is cooked. There isn't one song I kept off this EP. He needs to go back in the lab and take his time like he did with ELE2.

Truth.

Problem is, it doesn't seem like Busta has a real A&R, at all. Dude doesn't really sit around with legends to cook and get their feedback. He has people just sending him a million beats and he's doing his own thing without any direction. Bro just dropping trash now.

I tried to get through the first couple of songs, but his voice is shot

The mixing is "off" also

His last album had involvement from Timbaland, Pharrell, and Swizz as executive producers but I don't know what the hell they actually did.

Was ELE 2 full of older songs or something? Cause he sounded so much better on there and that was a really dope album

It was if I'm not mistaken. You can tell because vocals are different throughout that album. Prime example is the striking difference between Czar and the Kendrick joint.

As for this EP, he sounds terrible. The bars are still there though but jeez it's hard to listen to.

Apparently artists don’t listen to fans anymore. He ain’t learned. Everything after ELE2 been weak.

I had listened to Blockbusta when it came out and that was full of terrible trend hopping sounding stuff, so I’m afraid to even listen to anything else off of this
