    after much deliberation...ive decided im up is 100% better than ss3. im up is a restrained personal effort showcasing thug's vocals at the end of 2015/start of 2016. vocals that are more controlled and focused than ever before (just see for my people or family). ss3 is a majority of old (but great) throwaways mixed with a few standout moments with almost nothing new to offer (especially after the new ground im up covers).

    the project with f---ing F Cancer, For My People, King TROUP, Hercules and Family is most definitely better.

    my reviews in case anyone missed them:

    I'm up way ahead of ss3
    My Boys still the best thug song of 2016

    I didn't listen enough to I'm up but yeah I think it is better than ss3.

    Ss3 was basically "everything from the two previous slime seasons in 8 songs"

    look at it this way: its like beast mode vs 56 nights. gut reaction, which might understandably last for months, will be 56 nights


    but beast mode is better, #sorrynotsorry

    love f cancer, king troup, hercules. family is good af too but the features sort of brought it down a bit for me

    that's maybe one of my issues with I'm up actually..too feature heavy imo and it's not like they're bringing much to the table. I miss the ss1 vibe where he just carried pretty much carried everything himself

    i'm up has some nice high but it has lower lows imo ss3 barely has any lows imo
