New York State of Mind pt3 is hard. They shouldn't of used the Billy Joel sample on the chorus tho.. I'm from Egg Rolls and Duck sauce where the feds rolled on Dutch Schultz lol that's hard

The expectations were never going to be met no matter how hard they tried.

Solid project for the trapped in the 90s nikkas. Yall new Gen nikkas go listen to that new 21 savage

"Opposition teams walk in The Garden, mockingly rockin' Timbs and a Nas tee"

Just from skimming I hear about 6 beats þhat stand out. The rest have that typical Primo formula. But it's just a skim. We'll see

[KingDanz]

great album

 

[Primetime21]

Gave that hoe Trina a shout out after she was talking greasy, nikka a better man than me

 

[H.J.Duck]

Premier a legend but most of these beats are incredibly bland/lifeless

Imma just pretend there are still only 2 NY State of Minds because I have no idea wtf that was

That felt like a weird self-congratulatory tribute song. Unfortunately it's not the only song that feels like that

junkie should be a single at some point.... it has a radio friendly vibe... i think it could get a few spins...

Album feels celebratory, think the idea of light-years is more related to where they are in life, victory lap, time to take it easy, we did everything, lets just enjoy whats left, fukc yesterdays bullsshhiitt

Surprised how many people like bouquet, probably my least favorite track, sounds a bit forced and showing love to everybody smells like giving out participation trophies (Coi Leray ?! nah breh)

The Billy Joell part clashes with the beat to me, dont really get it... was unnecessary to give it that name but otherwise like the track...

Sons is better than Daughters to me, latter sounded a bit sacharine

AZ track is not one of my favorite cuts from them but ceiling was very high

3rd childhood is my main track so far and love how WTTU sounds like The Doors couldve been a feature there

Preemo 7/10
Nas 9/10

8/10

Will always love their edgier stuff more but if i wanna listen to that ill just do that

Beautiful project
