    I’m a huge Rocky fan and was looking forward to this for a long time. It starts off strong and has a handful of great tracks but overall pretty underwhelming on the first listen. Going to give it a couple more spins this weekend to see if it grows on me.

    Admittedly my expectations weren’t too high when I saw Kodak Black and French Montana on the tracklist but no Schoolboy Q. Just glad they didn’t actually rap.

    A Kodak or French verse might've salvaged this flop

    [​IMG]
    its all that I had left from the half ounce I bought about a month ago. I don't normally trip alone though so it was definitely a different experience. and I've only done acid a few times I definitely don't like it as much as mushrooms. besides didn't you say you loved me a few hours ago??? lol.. and nah this is for sure an album to trip too you should try it brother it's all love on this side

    copped daytona and this earlier today and had a chance to spin this one a couple times

    album bops until about half way through and then I sort of zone out and stop paying attention to it, and then it catches me towards the end again. it's about what I expected from Rocky and mostly on par with what I've heard so far: filler middle, but it ain't bad, and what's good on here is nice

    The only s--- I can stand on this album. Tony Tone instrumental version would be cool but this 30 year old pushing this rebellion gimmick so hard and lines like I'd say s--- my d-ck but that's sexual harassment and this ain't no teen choice awards is very off-putting.

    Enjoy the single version of a$ap forever as well. I stick to my 4/10 rating. Not AWFUL but below average

    What does Rocky being 30 have to do with anything? Is that considered too old to rap now?

    I think he's got a point, though i would have given it a slightly higher rating

    f--- Narsh. Why does anyone give a f--- about these lil hipster f--- boi reviews complied by a bunch of nerds h----bent on intentionally overusing as much complex wording as possible in their lil blogs to try and appear more intelligent, and to help feed their narcissism? Why? Does it make you feel better or more popular?

    Ya'll like forreal give these lil Geek a----s clout? Like you use them as a metric for your own evaluations? They would help sway your motion in terms of whether you'll even give an album a chance?

    If so I feel bad for you.

    ** awaits the inevitable 'username assassination attempts (par for the course as it's the only thing you lil herbs have because you lack substance)**

    I'm chilled (always)
    It's a forum. I'm not gonna have an aneurism. It's not that serious.

    I'm just sayin I don't get why anyone cares what another forum member they've never met before think about a project. Why would u care?? I don't get it.

    So let us discuss hiphop then. Discuss our OWN opinions here on the message board since that's what it was created for. You don't need to read some bs blog review from some precious spotty a--- lil millennial kid to help validate/sway your opinions.

    Just like what you like, and avoid what you don't man. Fuuuck. lol.

    I'm not gonna have to jump over to XXL/Complex to see how many stars out of 5 they've decided to give this project before I feel comfortable making my own decision to listen to it myself and form my own opinion.

    I don't need a co-sign to sway me.
    But hey, that's just me. f--- these lil self important geeks. I don't care about your lil English piece or your white middle class opinion on black music. If you wanna exercise and expand your use of vocabulary, f--- off back to College. Find a teacher that gives a f--- coz I don't.
