He’s pushing this as his “debut album”...his first album for sale etc...

But he put it on SoundCloud because if he do like 50k he can be like “I just wanted people to hear the music..just like how I started” kinda shyt...but they wanna do numbers like astroworld did...which then they can be like “I put it up for free and still did 200k”

Pure PLANT shyt
He is already rich as hell so it really doesn't matter either way lol

I think Chance could've benefitted from putting out a 7 track album. There are some highs on this album and some core of the fukking Earth level lows. When I first saw that Groceries song didn't make the list I was happy but surprisingly that Groceries song was better than most tracks on this album. I'm mainly just disappointed. YBN Cordae had a much better album and it wasn't even close.

The only song I’ve heard so far. It’s composed and performed well but the production/mixing sounds a bit off for someone on Chance’s level. It’s like there’s a lack of color throughout the instrumentation and his voice doesn’t sit in right.

It’s not bad but it almost sounds like something I’d find in the local section of a record store

Listened to some of this last night and shyt just sounds like hes trying way too hard and doing too much on every song. Pretty disappointing so far, especially considering the calibre of releases recently.

"Big Fish" is cool though.

prolific posting.. :salute:

albums light.. he gave Yeezy his best tracks.. but, this got a few hits..

folks hated on his last project, until No Problems made noise..

With the songs he released over the last year and some of the features he did... This album is unbelievably disappointing.

Seriously, this is obviously a case where an artist either over thought it when it comes to actually picking tracks for their album or just got gassed up by people around him.

How does piff like this not make the album?





...but shyt like this does





There's more songs that just don't sound that good or polished. It's just perplexing for me to have heard dope ass tracks in the last 12 months from breh, and the album has so many 'ok' forgettable songs on it.

I wanted to see Ye do another set of 7 song EPs for Chance, Big Sean, & 2 Chainz. I feel like that’s a perfect amount for those 3 to work with
