I wonder if the beats are as smooth as his work with cl smooth and petestrumentals :bishopeddiemayne:
Milestone

Not even close. Half these beats don't even sound like Pete. Worst project he's ever done IMo

?

he's been rocking this style since at least Petestrumentals 2
And if you want old school style production, milestone had the ethereal sample over a bassline so :manny:

Only played once but there was a definitive soulless style applied to the first half of the record. Like straight cookie cutter shyt. Petesteumentals 2 had some beautiful grooves. I didn't hear it on this. I heard him making records he thinks people who liked Purple City could get into.

Pete just trying to update his drums and shyt. I thought the same as u off the first listen and it is really a gem. The production fit Dza perfectly imo

Have you heard He Has Risen by Smoke DZA, produced by harry fraud, that whole album is fire. I suggest you listen to it

This album is dope and definitely will get replayed many times, I wish it was another Ross feature and I wish Dave East got a verse instead of the hook, still raw af though

Thanks. Just added it to my library.
