RAP'S REIGNING WEIRDO DELIVERS ANOTHER LOW-STAKES, HIGH-REWARD GIFT WITH SLIME SEASON 3

The best part of Kanye’s Madison Square Garden album premiere and fashion show last month happened at the very end, after Ye had run out of music and the models were starting to fidget. And then, out of nowhere: “Hold up, Thug wants to play a song.” The song was “With Them,” the lead track from Young Thug’s latest offering, Slime Season 3, with a rubbery Mike WiLL Made-It beat that bounced wildly


absolutely bananas “Drippin’,” midway through which Thug pauses to announce “You don’t know a ting about me, OK?” in exaggerated patois, then launches into one of his most dynamic verses of 2016, picking up speed, starting to scream. It’s rap, but it’s jazz, too: Thug isn’t “post-language,” he just plays his voice like a saxophone. His approach is more free jazz than freestyle: improvisation for the sake of launching away from convention, more about harmonic progression and overall arc than outright lyrical cleverness or stamina.

@Poitier "Thug plays his voice like a saxophone"

Like I said before the tape dropped, Problem will be that shyt !!!

bytches in love with these slimers, how many now, I dunno I dunno

Smokin' that shyt out the pound
We never lost it, it ain't nothin' to be found
These bytches come and go round and go round
I took the booty, nailed her like a mount
These bytches gon' cover me, I call them gowns
Boy that's your problem
I might fukk up a boy that's your problem
Gettin' extorted lil boy, that's your problem

After playing this mixtape all week, I think I'm ready to say: this is Young Thug's best single project. That's only my opinion, but I say it because there is not a single "filler" song on here. Straight flames from 1-8. This is one case (and one artist) where a shorter project is beneficial.

I think Rich Gang tape was a little better, but as far as solo projects ... this is my favorite. And I love all Thug's shyt.

I lost interest in this dude I was nearly a stan after Barter 6, he's been getting solid reviews on all his projects across the board (which does not include coli cats and youtube cacs in Slovenia saying that rap died when Pac died and that Eminem is the only one keeping it alive) I need to listen to this and see if I should go back and play what I've missed

After a few listens it has gotten better.

He reuses alot of the same lines and over and over though. That big B, Beyonce line has been used on every mixtape he's ever dropped.

Flows and cadences aren't as creative as 1017 Thug either.

most of these songs are 2 years old and were recorded around the same time
