    I've only heard it once but I liked what I heard. That song with the beat similar to Heaven and h--- is fire

    Just like his debut, a bit more focus would have greatly helped, and rocky isnt always the star of his own song, but over half the album is genuinely interesting and well made. Its a solid album that manages to switch up the usual rocky format enough to stay interesting, and despite maybe overstaying it's welcome a bit, it's still a fun and engaging listen.

    It's bland, boring and monotonous. It didn't even have many good features like his debut.

    It's a good album but compared to the other hip hop releases this year, it's pretty lackluster. Still his best album to date imo

    I agree. Objectively, there's not really a bad song. I just think it goes in too many directions and that puts off more casual listeners who let personal taste cloud their judgement.

    Eh, not really. The album's messy and aimless

    ... some songs are actually very good, but the album has too much fat I think, and Rocky didn't do much to keep me interested during the whole thing

    I want to like this album but I was anticipating Rocky to take it a level higher than what we've been accustomed to. More than anything it suffers from too much filler whereas the good songs on here get lost in the shuffle. Rocky still got a lot ahead of him regardless, just got to focus more on the next album/project.

    I suppose I was saying more or less the same thing, but from the POV of someone who really likes it. There isn't a BAD song, but the last half could use some trimming, and an interlude on a 17 track album is just ridiculous
