If Ross didn't have that CO shyt on his resume I think people would have already placed him above Big. People constantly praise his music but seem afraid to put him on that Tier 1 list. He's fake and delusional as fukk but he does make good music.

You mean if he was a better rapper, rapping wise he isn't close to BIG. Just accept him for what he is, a good rapper who makes good music, not every rapper has to be exalted to that level.

The second verse on paradise lost... Telling young nikkas that they need to stop leasing and own, and if they got it give they brother a loan... Got in empowerment just to put my people on.

:salute:

Only song i ain't feeling is the weekend song.

I feel like how I felt with rich forever, every time I listen I find a new favorite track.

I've lost faith in Ross ever making a classic. Haven't heard the album yet, but I bet all the classic talk is trademark coli overreaction whenever a new album drops. Same nikkaz that were saying Childish Gambino had the best album (or mixtape?) of 2013 :heh:

Even the Ross haters gotta admit he got one with this one. I didn't have high expectations for this since GFID was ass but goddamn ricky :wow:
Album is cohesive, nikka got 19 tracks and not one is skippable. No forced Usher or Nicki Minaj features.
Lavish production and boastful raps, it doesn't revolutionize the genre but not every album needs to. Mastermind is a damn good rap album.

The Bangers:
Rich is Gangsta :ohhh:

Nobody :ohlawd: ( I'm fukking heavy with this, pays perfect homage to the GOAT Biggie.)
Mafia Music III :whew: Rozay came through with the reggae vibe. ( Sizzla feature :blessed:)

And then the combo from In vein to Thug Cry :banderas:

Ross really stepped up and Oxymoron just came out, too much dope music:damn:

This will be my thrid post in this thread.
Initial impressions were that the album was poor..
Then after second / third listen I though that album could grow..

It hasnt..
I only like one track - Vein which is basically a Weeknd track.

Its quite poor, Mafia Music 3 really is a mess...
You know when somebody has rushed an album when they put 'You Know I Got It' as a deluxe track.
:heh:

Nobody believes you.

Very strong album. Can't even hate on Meek Mill. :wow:

But I'm so, so tired of these "M-M-M-M"...
