Jul 12, 2024 Missed out on the last 400 pages so not sure how y’all are feeling the album yet but I really f---ing enjoyed it. I genuinely don’t LOL these days but I did when I got to track 3 and when he started going at deaf people again later in the album. Not going to give it a rating or anything yet as I need to let it marinate but loved the beats throughout the album, loved the concept, and loved the lyrics and delivery. Bro is 51 and still dropping s--- that kept me captivated from start to finish. It’s a massive win for me
Jul 12, 2024 Even though I just listened to an excellent Em album, I still can’t get this track out of my head. Random lines pop into it all the time… you think the bay gon let you disrespect Pac n----- to sweet chin music and I won’t pass the aux aye to say Drake, I know you like em young. Need to put this album on repeat and cleanse those bars from my head
Jul 12, 2024 Second listen was definitely better. Some really great moments on this. Spot 5 for me. It’s not beating relapse but everything after
Jul 12, 2024 What a strangely long reel. Seems like he's getting up in peoples faces a little too much but nobody says anything to him. Paul must have an intimidating physical aura.
Jul 12, 2024 Em built a story using AI to help him paint the picture and give it colours. I know it’s probably not that big of a deal for y’all but what he did is really a turning point in AI as a tool for arts and music. I’m just happy about it. Music wise it will def take some time for me to build a proper opinion about this album. As of now, I think it will end up in the top half of his discography.
Jul 12, 2024 This album is a mix between all his work. You can hear every style from SSLP to MTBMB but it still works. This is a heavy body of work, not perfect but he did his job on this one
