This nikka has actually spent more time in the US than Canada to be honest.

After the first song I was expecting this album to be some hard body shyt but that shyt's too lovey-dovey sounding for me. I was listening at the gym and I had to cut that bytch off. I wanted more than R&B drug music, had to go back to high energy Real nikka Music.

I didn't know whether to dap you up or try not to die laughing at this post. I did both. I'm only about four real tracks into this shyt (28 tracks including skits!? :sadcam: :why: :damn: does this nikka think it's 2003 or some shyt!?) and I agree. All these nights that was expecting him to come with straight bars as the answer/companion to all the singing and harmonizing on Views might be disappointed. I'm liking it, though.

Just finished listening. It's pretty good!

But side note: I can see where people are coming with the Kendrick comparisons. The album structure is a little similar to Good Kid Maad City. Also, I thought nikkas were kidding when they said "Loners Blvd" was just "Look What You've Done". It really fukking is, even down to the phone call at the end. Holy shyt. For a dude that may or may not have dedicated some time to going at Drake, you can't just leave something for him to be petty about on your album.

Finally heard it all. It's good from top to bottom, but you can clearly hear other artists influences in the album (specifically Kendrick and Drake) which I can't cosign. It's definitely not Tory's best work, but I fukk with it as a debut album. This album feels like it was made for women and people new to Tory, which is perfectly fine but this one won't have as much staying power for long time fans such as myself.

I miss Sunny Diamonds :mjcry:
