So according to them this album is just on par with Lil Xan album

I thought critics would learn from their mistake with Tetsuo and Youth but nah they still out here shrugging off classics

What’s sad is people are gonna see reviews like that and just not check for it I’m taking about casuals sure but still this kinda stuff hurts word of mouth

Not glowing, but Shawn Cee's is the first review to give the concept the time of day. He spends the first 13 minutes just explaining it lol, very thorough.

Has any of the fellow artists mentioned the album? There is 0 buzz from what I've seen but I'm not heavy on social media.

At the least Wav files, Jonyah and Alan forever these are great pieces of music and deserve to be acknowledged.

The industry is based on dikk riding. Since Lupe isnt popular and he really doesnt have industry friends like that.

This always happens when you make a “concept” album reviews are always complaining not every song fits the concept

It's true. Not as mad as I'm sure he is, but it's whack for sure.

Not unexpected tho, and it ain't like I really care what XXL or Hip Hop DX thinks.
