This smart-dumb nikka reviewed his own album, talked about himself in 3rd person, called himself a "loquacious luddite" and a "fastidious MC," provided analysis of Moonshine Lupe vs. Champagne Lupe, and gave himself a 7/10.

:russ::russ::russ::russ::russ:

He already said he wrote some shyt for Drogas that shyts on Mural :wow: i can't wait

I still listen to Food & Liquor and the Cool. But I have no use for T & Y. I guess it's too smart for me, but I just don't find it to be all that an enjoyable listen.

I still get hyped for Gold Watch and love to vibe to Paris Tokyo. F & L is littered with so many great hip hop tracks. Just don't feel the same about T & Y. What are the standouts I should care about again?
He tapdanced all over T&Y breh you're buggin

I'd suggest looking up all the themes and concepts used on the album cuz he definitely had more layers to those bars than he did on F&L and The Cool and it gets better the more you catch em

It's Express stretched across an album, both "what it say" right before going into mumble rap and "repeat it, repeat it, repeat it" laying out the Promise flow is too tongue in cheek to not be just fukkin around.

Well, for starters, Mural is the most lyrically dense hip hop song like ever and a master class in the art form of rapping, so star there lol.

So

1. Mural
2. Prisoner 1 & 2 ( probably his best song ever IMO)
3. Body of Work
4. Madonna
5. Adoration of The Magi
7. TRON (my favorite song on there)
8. Little Death

nikka basically the whole album lol. Give it another spin.

He said he freestyled that entire song off his dome. I find humor in the fact that he freestyled something Drake would get ghost writers to help him with :russ:

But in all seriousness, I love that fukking song. It's simple as fukk but that beat knocks and that hook is fukking catchy :wow:


I'm sober I'm sober I'm sober I'm sober I'm sober :blessed:
