First 3 tracks are straight flames.

Always love Paul skits.

I love the subject matter of Stepping Stone but not really feeling it that much. I always appreciate his personal tracks and I was hyped as fukk to hear Luis Resto did the track but something didn't click for me.

Not Alike and Kamikaze, more flames.

Fall is cool. I feel like Fall and Kamikaze should be switched in title but whatever.

Nice Guy and Good Guy are alright, I liked how seamlessly they flowed into each other but the album wouldn't have felt different without them. This is the closest to that Dina Rae vibe dude has been chasing for a minute now.

Venom doesn't fit but does fit the album given the tone of biting back at everyone. It feels separate and has that Phenomenal vibe that I fukk with. The hook is annoying and catchy at the same time.

Listened to it about 3 times already on the ride into work. Different feel to Revival so I don't think it's fair to say it shyts over it, the intentions are clearly very different, but definitely missed hearing Em just spit for damn near an entire album.

Dope surprise to wake up to.

Very hesitant to listen to this.

Went from one of the guys I really liked and respected as an MC

to throway albums after he got clean to complete cringeworthy pop tracks and a damn pop albums.

Not sure I want to mess up dude’s last bits of legacy he has in my head

:patrice:

Not perfect by any means but a big step in the right direction away from Revival. Beats are too busy/hyper and but that's what a lot of people like. He would be better served on more laid back, minimalist beats and maybe replace some of these sung hooks with some scratches.

If this was an EP this shyt would be way more potent. I honestly think he should get with one dope producer and do 4-7 track projects where things can be nice and tight.

He could go the stan route and break down his fall off, that simple.

Could even twist some of his old lines in the process to show how wide of a gap it is from what he used to be.
Lets not make it seem like Em aint insecure as hell about a lot of stuff.

Why n1ggaz wabt to hear Budden so bad? Dude is on his Akademics steeze.hes basically a dude that makes youtube vids now. 50 gonna find a way to diss Joe just for the attention

The wack part about rap now is that all of the rappers he dissed wont respond with bars because they know they cant touch him, so they'll do a Live or go on Vlad or spend an hour on their podcasts talking about how they dont care and make corny jokes and giggle and just talk their way out of it to their corny ass listeners. Corny, scared nikkas, and the fans corny for letting everybody talk talk talk now and not get in the booth

Joe can but don’t want too

I think the young young nikkas will
Tyler and Earl too

Drake will drop a sub and move on
