I get why The Birds Don't Sing sounded odd at first to start the album but with how they ended with By The Grace of God, I get it. It's not the typical opener and is usually the kind of topic people expect at the end but talking about the death of their parents early comes across like a reason for what brought them back together for another album.

Off first listen, every track was crazy to me except the last two. Was nodding my head to every beat and bar until that point. Really wanted to like the Nas song more. SO BE IT OG on Spotify! Ace Trumpets sounds a lot better in context of the album.

Y’all warned me about Pharrell ruining everything he sang on, and you were right. BUT he killed the production IMO. Enabled a different flow on damn near every track.

The Lox style back and forth on E.B.I.T.D.A.
The rhyme scheme on F.I.C.O.

Made me laugh with “my old plug asked the new plug to reunite us,” and “let God take the wheel like a Tesla.” And I’m glad to see Clipse utilizing the whole house with six mill behind the tyvek and work under the linoleum.

Gonna have this on repeat for awhile.

Malice got one of the most interestin rap careers. He smacked up Push all over Lord Willin. Push stepped it up, found his shyt and was better on HHNF. I don't really remember Till Casket much. This shyt here though Malice MVP. Malice even features on other people shyt consistently body shyt. Then solo he only had those Christian raps lol....

I'm still genuinely lost on why def jam would fumble so hard off this Kendrick verse.

How I've heard some people say it's because all or most of the verse is supposed to be from the eyes of trump which makes sense, but really?

Insane from def jam considering how this album is sounding.

He strikes me as someone who is a good people person behind the scenes, not the typical dikkhead rapper.

That, integrity, and his talent got him a long way.
And unlike Ross who stays in character 24/7,push raps about coke but admits he didn't grow up in poverty.

This is fire. POV is crazy they all killed it and the beat switch for Malice verse :wow: Pharrell got this jumping (All Things Considered hook is wack tho), sound is signature as ever. Real fly, lyrical, abstract intelligence veteran rap. The Birds Don't Sing was a very mature intro track in remembrance.
