I guess T.I. was trying to keep up with the theme of having comedians on his albums. He had Chappelle on Dime Trap (and Mike Epps on the King album).
This is honestly T.I.'s worst album. Ms. Pat wasn't the only terrible thing about it. Those Interludes were just as bad.
I disagree. Dime Trap gave us a great vision in to the renwed TIP. With growth & evolution. LIBRA is basically the 2nd installment of that. The only difference is that LIBRA has better lyricism or improvised i should say but lacks production in comparison. I prefer Dime Trap a lot more than i do LIBRA because Dime Trap successfully captured consistency throughout and better body of work in my honest opinion. And i dont downgrade LIBRA because of the interludes no.
Dime Trap could also been a lot better. For example: GMFU, Don't Like, Single, Go Time, King's Castle, Busy Ft. Nipsey Hussle are some great tracks that did make the early versions of Dime Trap aka 2016, 2017 before the finalized 2018 one. And i think the same could be said for LIBRA in term of song selection although i dont have as many unreleased ones to truly say that outright. But i still know TIP got a lot more bangers in the vault not being used that he could of used if he didnt go through this song selection he did for LIBRA.
Also do have Discord by any chance? Lets talk there I could show some.
