J Balvin came correct... it's the first standout track.

Weezy came correct too

I ain't gonna say it's trash, I'll just say it's probably his weakest effort.

He was on to something with The Gifted. I feel like that had a good balance of the Wale that his fans and outsiders could rock to on that album.


The Gifted
Ambition
Album About Nothing

All solid efforts IMO. Disappointing to read the reactions to this. I'll give it a spin later.

@Deltron dap + rep coming your way bruh.

wale is good. ambition, the gifted, TAAN, tracks and verses on the self made series, guest appearances, mixtapes like the mixtape about nothing, more about nothing, 11-1-11 theory, folarin and summer on sunset were all good to great. he has a great body of work compared to a lot of other rappers.
Pretty much this.

I'm a HUGE Wale fan and this album is very disappointing through the first 9 tracks. Of them, I only mess with three with the G-Eazy feature being one of them. As much as he plugged Shine, I thought he would have came correct.

Said Summer on Sunset would be the better of the two projects with this theme and I was right.

Overall, this is first blemish on what is a very solid discography.
