    Let's talk. Which one is better?

    Personally I think "Love Story" is still the best project from Yelawolf. If he put songs from "HOTEL EP" on "Trial By Fire" instead, it would be much better. I like the album though.

    will def give it a go today, my job allows me to pretty much have headphones on all day anyways.

    Forgot to add Slumdon Bridge EP to that list which would go just after Love Story

    "Giant Turd Sandwich" vs "Flaming Giant Turd Sandwich" :thinkinghmmm:

    Personally I think "Giant Turd Sandwich" is still the best project from Yelawolf. If he put songs from "Turd Sandwich Jr" on "Flaming Giant Turd Sandwich" instead, it would be much better. I don't like the album though.

    TBF is definately his weakest album. Doesn't make it bad though.

    Love Story is wayyyyyy better to me.

    From the moment I put that album on - it hit me. I love almost all the tracks and fault very little on that album. The only points being... I think it would be a lot stronger with a few less tracks, which I could do without. But it's so consistent and he created his best songs.

    TBF, I've only spun twice - I barely made it through listen 1, as I was bored. Then I spun the 2nd time... Marginally better but still the best track to me is Daylight and really the only song from it I LOVE (compared with most from LS) and the 2nd half of the album is very boring and inconsistent to me.

    I hate the slow, talky storytelling flow he's doing on most of those tracks. It's not musically compelling, it just feels lazy like he's satisfied with just BARELY rapping and then - about 100 feature hooks to finish off the album just threw off its feeling of consistency.

    I think a big part of what makes certain rappers songs feel like theirs, fully, is the hooks and the fact he not only had so much feature hooks (especially when he's such a good hook maker and singer) but finished off the last 3, 4? tracks - all with features? That was wack.

    LS was a near classic to me. TBF is average with a few standouts.

    Love Story was like 9/10 at least. Trial By Fire 7/10 at most. Love Story was a classic to me. I have never heard that style of rap any better before. Trial By Fire was very similar to Love Story in terms of style but not even close in quality.
