    Or do we need to wait another 7 years. Album way too ahead of it's time

    apt ratings tbh. Album falls apart during the latter mid half. Honestly the first time I listened to fuckwith me I couldn't understand a single thing hov was talking about but that beat went so hard i could care less lol it was a 10/10 right there :wow2: I liked Beyonce a lot on Part 2 as well. And JT killed it on holy grail

    edit: gonjasufi sample on nickels and dimes demonic too. Can't front i like this album a lot

    MCHG doesn’t have the lows of say Kingdom Come or Blueprint 3, but it doesn’t have the highs of either of those albums either. It’s mid throughout, and I’d rather sit through a collection of songs ranging from 3-8/10 than sixteen 5/10’s.

    Yeah...no. Definitely not. Even 4:44 isn't a masterpiece, although it's a classic.
    But it's not bad either. It's just an average album that kind of came and went.

    @Thy my answer to that

    Holy Grail 8/10 - nice single
    Picasso Baby 8/10 - 2nd part >>>. Dope song
    Tom Ford - 7/10 its okay I guess
    Fuckwithmeyouknowigotit 7.5/10 - Ross verse bores me. Jay verse should have been on Livin So Italian so kinda mad at this. Dope verse though
    Oceans - 7/10 its cool
    FUTW - 8.5/10 his flow on 3rd verse >>
    Somewhereinamerica - 10/10 best song on the album, love it
    Crown - 8/10 sounds like a yeezus leftover but a good one
    Heaven 7.5/10 verses are really good but not a fan of the beat really
    Part II - 5/10 boring
    BBC - 8.5/10 jigga and nas >>. this slaps
    JAY Z Blue - 8.5/10 really good
    Beach is better 0/10 for making it just 1 minute
    La Familia 6/10 never was a fan of this cuz of his flow
    Nickles and Dimes - 8/10 also one of the highlights
