    This s--- was so boring minus like 3 songs. I deleted the whole album with the exception of By Any Means. I remember when I downloaded it and I had to keep going back and listening to it because I'd zone out 3 songs in. s--- was the equivalent of elevator music, background music, it's just there.

    Granted, it was better than TPAB. Schoolboy Q didn't have to lure George Clinton into the studio with acid tabs to be funky.

    Had some great songs, like Groovy Tony, JoHn Muir and Tookie Knows II, and many other good ones, but I think it was too long and too all over the place.

    Torch was too long, he could've shortened it and worked Lord Have Mercy onto it.
    THat Part should've been shorter. I love it, but to make it bigger on clubs and radio, it has to be shorter.
    Straight up cut Big Body, Neva Change, Str8 Ballin' and Overtime. They're very unnecessary.
    Blank Face has to be the outro, I dont understand why it's not.

    Now you got a shorter and better album with less filler and more replayability. I don't think it was a flop, but it needed more work.

    If a flop is considered AOTY then yes blank face was a flop. Get the f--- outta here. The album was excellent. I still listen to it daily. Was it perfect? Not it had some major duds like overtime. Probably the best produced album this year as well. But let's look at some of the excellent tracks

    Torch- classic opener
    Lord have mercy- verse hook and beat are insane
    Groovy Tony/Eddy Kane- contender for song of the year
    That part- b-----r with Kanye
    Ride out- b-----r of the year. Staples bringing a heater verse. Beat of the year? Possibly. Flow is just too on point
    By any means- consensus is this song is savage. 10/10
    Whatever you want- s--- is just too smooth.
    John Muir- once again that f---ing beat...and Q free styling with flow on point
    Big body-ehhh I'll admit
    Dope dealer- E40 the legend
    Str8 ballin- great song hits those emotional strings
    Black thoughts- great verses
    Black face- paak and Q what a great combo
    Tookie knows II-hardest g.d. beat. Good/funny guest verses. Exceptional album closer.

    So your lookin at an album with only about 3/17 skippable tracks. f---ing classic. Come thread

    You should work for Pitchfork. You have a real talent in describing the strengths of a song.

    This may not be tpab or control system, or even h&c status, which are my 3 favorite TDE projects, but I thought the album was amazing.
