Fab mixtapes sound (from mixing standpoint) much better than other rappers albums.

Budden should take notes

Solid, solid effort from Fab.

He should just stick with this lane, and try to up the ante every time. He's older, supposedly more mature now. Throw that excessive gun and materialism talk and punches in the bushes, Fab.

I'm riding to this.

Not excessively. A little joint here and there, but he shouldn't be OD'n on that anymore. Plus, it's youngins' out here doin' that with more energy and with a feel he just can't reproduce at this stage in his career.

:ohhh: hate to admit u might be right...I wuz even questionin if its time for him to leave the punchlines alone just bcuz he don't seem to know when to pick his spots,hell be spittin sum deep shyt:ohlawd: then fuk it up with a really corny punchline sumtimes:manny:...he gets too much hate for the corny ones imo givin the fact he givin u sick ones 90% of the time....the embarrasing ones u should have to live with:pachaha:

But he really is one of the few punchline rappers who don't need those direct right in your face,obvious punchlines to be sick....he really is a great rapper usin just spittin,this is kinda a preview of what he would sound like when he's not tryna give his fanbase a punchline ever other bar....a lot of his fans do check for em for the punchlines tho....he gotta either find a medium or do like he been doin and alternate between the TINC's and the Soul Tapes.

People saying he bit Big Sean and 2 chainz? Really? If it weren't for Fab these artists wouldn't even have a chance. They're whole styles are based off of Loso.

Uh, he's been bitin them & usin that stupid ass flow everyone else been usin for a good min. Main reason why i stopped checkin for that nikka.

He would be one of the best out if he rapped like this ALL THE TIME:





But instead he chooses to flow like a fakkit :snoop:

Word.

It's just a natural progression. He shoulda been at this point, and he could have been. Back when he dropped his FN2S and did "What Should I Do?", I was like, "This guy is really limiting himself by not consistently incorporating this kinda content into his music."

Which makes him biting them that much more ridiculous. How do you bite a flow created by a nikka who ate off yours?

I think dude is running out of flows + material to be totally honest. Look how long it took to make this tape... only for some of it to be a little repetitive, borrowing from other people's flows and peppered w/the same goofy punchlines that were what killed the TINC series

But time will tell. Tape had its moments and is an improvement. PRoduction is so clean :ohlawd:
