T.I. - The Libra (The Legend Is Back Running Atlanta) (Discussion Thread)

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

i think this is one his best albums in a while. better produced than his last and tip rapping his ass off. i wasnt sure at first since hitmaker is ep. but i dont get the hate. his accent is super heavy again if that's what dude means by lethargic.

conway sounded great. wouldnt mind hearing him step more out of his element like benny has. another dope feature from rapsody. gonna finally give in and listen to one of her albums later. him rapping w/ his kids may be one of his best songs. and the track w/ killer mike is awesome.

its the right mix of maturity and him knowing his pocket.

shyt like this is wavy as fukk.

Been listening and it’s become my favorite album, of his, since king. It’s the first in a while that feels consistent, to me, from front to back. I know there’s some radio and p*ssy chasing tracks on it but they aren’t dumped into the sequence, awkwardly. They seem to be placed naturally. I’ll be listening to this for a while.

Also I wasn’t the biggest fan of the title but it is what it is.

Me when “Hypno” came on:

All three of them were better than this especially Trouble Man. They also didn't have those pandering ass Interludes and Ms. Pat talking about T.I.'s facial hair looking like hairy butt cracks either.

Production wise neither one of those albums are touching this. This is his best full length album since Paper Trail

This was soild, I only listened once and it was kind of in the background but I didn't hear anything that made me cringe or think it was bad. Will give it a few more spins soon but it sounded like a good effort from someone who main focus probably isn't music these days

 

[I AM WE ARE]

Skimming thru it and so far not bad

After a couple spins, there's a few joints I can fucc wit.

Tip's best album since Paper Trail. Remarkable effort.

 

[Heavy_Handz]

That track with Conway slaps so hard

Track with Benny & KISS goes hard too

 

[CrimsonTider]

One thing I want to see old rappers stop is the traditional male R&B hook

they’re all bad on this album and Rick Ross last single was hurt by it

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Smh disrespecting the sign this better not be trash

 

[SolesKing305]

I havent been feeling TIPs last efforts, but im fukkin with this! Very good album front to back for the most part, been vibin to this all weekend. It passed the whip test fa sho

First half was dope kinda lost me a bit in the middle. That song with John legend kinda tough tho.

I like it. some songs could do without but overall this is good stuff. Family Connect and Make Amends my two favorite and back to back tracks at that. album too long because it couldve been trimmed down and wouldve been a 4.5 effort easily. still gets 3.5 at worst.
