Just finished
This album is incredible. Absolutely INCREDIBLE.
And this is coming from someone who never really “got” the Clipse hype. Someone who thinks HHNF is overrated.
These nikkas spitting their ASSES off from the intro to the conclusion, they took not one hook, not one verse, not ONE bar off.
The features ALL showed up with their best. I’ve never listened to a Tyler The Creator album in my life…and this won’t change that but he absolutely impressed me on P.O.V. I never even knew he was capable of rapping like that.
Nas is Nas. He’s the GOAT and he’s been in rap God form these last 4 years so I wasn’t surprised at all that he ripped Chandeliers. The man has mastered rap in all of its forms.
Same thing for Kendrick. He’s the GOAT of his generation. I expected no less than a scene stealing performance and thats what he gave us.
Pharrell absolutely LACED this album from top to bottom. I don’t wanna hear another word about Chad from anybody ever again. P NEVER needed him to be one of the greatest producers who ever lived and he just proved it with this. nikkas saying else just bytches who can’t accept black excellence.
Malice is a top tier MC. He just has “it” when it comes to his writing. Push is a top tier MC too and I liked all three of his solo albums, but Malice is just special, his shyt hits different.
I liked So Be It Part 2. I have no idea why everybody is up in arms about it. I ran it back twice to make sure I wasn’t tripping and its dope to me and not in that “its cool but i’ll probably skip it when I run through the album two weeks from now” dope. It fits the album for me. I was reading on here that some people are saying Part 1 is replacing Part 2 on subsequent listens and if true I hope they include Part 2 as a bonus or something because I fukk with it.
Overall this is a 4.5/5 and definitely Album of The Year so far. I’ll be bumping this all summer.
this nikka deserves waaay more respect.
this nikka slowly creepin into the top 5
probably wherever the hell Chad is at
