I feel the opposite. Gibbs is actually carrying this one and I felt he was on autopilot for most of Alfredo 1.

On this one, we're getting standard fare Alchemist. Nothing bad but you can tell he saved his better shyt for Boldy, Evidence, and Roc during these sessions.
Craxy how different opinions can be. Opposite for me. This could be in my top 5 Al packs if it ages well. I feel like there’s such a wide variety in samples and sounds. I like the production on this wayyy more than part 1 which I think is Al’s most overrated batch of beats ever.

This is definitely my favorite Al pack this side of China and Bo Jackson

I heard 4 songs and he was rapping his ass off :dahell:

Reminded me of his old work before

yeah that had me dumb confused as well. Gibbs is a lot of things but a lazy rapper has never been one imo

I mean he definitely has gotten way less introspective in the 2nd half of his career and has less actual substance to his music (mostly) but that’s nothing new and he’s always had the intense delivery and the machine gun flow.

This sounds like any Gibbs rhyming project in the past decade to me.

Ran it through once. Another 4/5 maybe even 4.5/5 project from Gibbs + ALC

Way better than YOD1 imo. Time will tell if it tops the first part
