    Lmao either way, it's one of the better songs on here. And dvsn comes through with one of the albums best moments. Disagree?

    I hope it's up to my editor idk wtf he's doing

    And yeah i figured I'd get hate for cutting feel no ways/Weston and keeping like pop style but man drakes rapping just isn't that good on those 2

    I'd rather him do the bragging s--- if it's clever like hype or Grammy. Not boring, inconsequential "storytelling"

    Keep the Family Close is, again, one of the best songs on here. Different strokes for different folks I guess

    Right off the bat the transition from U With Me to Controlla is kinda odd. But I like Controlla through Pop Style. The Summers Over interlude is a nice transition from the lighter vibe into the rap tracks.

    I'm gonna revise mine after going through this.

    Yeah I wanted to cut u with me but it was the only other track that sounded like a good intro (cuz of how it opens up)

    Could replace it w keep the family close i guess

    Or just cut it completely and be bold w controlla as first

    But yeah controlla thru pop style is FLAWLESS sequencing :wow2:

    I wanted to end on hotline bling but it sounded odd right after pop style so I scrambled and thru in fire & desire

    :wow2:
