8/10

really solid follow up effort. brenda, dressed like rappers, aa, park, & tity & dolla are 10/10 tracks.

Cilvia Demo is a 10/10. Just needed to be said.

I completely forgot about this album if I'm being honest. Need to get more spins into it. Was expecting a project similar to CD. If I remember correctly my first few listens came and went really quickly. Only song I can remember is Stuck in the Mud.

I'mma rectify this and listen later today and post my score then. Sorry Zay for not giving your debut the attention that it warrants.

In all honesty, I have a cloud of confusion surrounding my feelings on this album. On one hand, I love songs like dressed like rappers, park, and free lunch. However, the last four songs seem useless and unnecessary; they're the epitome of filler. In the end, the highs are extremely high and the lows just embody mediocrity. Therefore, I give the album a 7, I guess.

For some reason I haven't gone back to this album as much as I feel I should have. I have the same issue with Cilvia Demo for some reason as well. This is a great album to cruise to. I like every track on here but don't really have any standouts, probably from my lack of listens and the fact that I just space out and vibe to his music. Only song I don't like is AA, but that's only because it's the first song alphabetically and it automatically plays whenever I connect my phone to the car. I had to delete A.D.H.D. from my phone for the same reason. I started to hate the song from listening to the first 6 seconds too many times.

7/10

The Sun's Tirade is a 9/10 for me.
So much to love about the album from Zay's honesty, playfulness, cheery cynicism in his lyrics. It's an extremely relatable album from the perspective of someone who came to terms with having f----- up in many situations in his life, however still trying to remain somewhat optimistic through it all. I feel like this is something we can all identify with, which makes getting into the album easier to get into.

I won't lie when I first listened to the album it sounded way too chill for me. Chill to the point that it slightly bored me. It wasn't until I got s--- faced drunk by myself on my sad boy s--- that the album started to click with me. So for me the, one way to describe this album to someone who is interested is that the album is an album filled with lowkey bangers. This album is perfect for those late night drives, a lazy Sunday morning in your dorm room or apartment.

My essential tracks off the album:
Don't Matter (I also recommend listening to the slowed down version of this track)
Silkk Da Shocka
Free Lunch
Tity and Dolla
Stuck in the Mud/Banned Up

I do wanna say though that at times The Sun's Tirade can be a bit of a retread of Cilvia Demo. That's not necessarily a bad thing, however I will say that Cilvia Demo has more energy if that's what you're looking for. You can't go wrong with either album.

I feel like Isaiah Rashad doesn't get the recognition he deserves, probably because he gets overshadowed by the other TDE artists? Anyway, I can pretty much give it a spin every now and then without getting bored. Then again it's not a perfect album. It's just a very solid, good album.

7/10 from me
