Yes indeed I was not mad at the homage to Slave. I can get with 7/10 tracks so far.

not listening to an album over and over again before getting my hands on the vinyl-edition. this is another classic case. Three tracks in, sounds AMAZING so far

There's enough bright spots on the album to make it worth a listen..But I just can't get past Tay's redundant melodies anymore... He just kind of meanders over songs without ever catching a melody that pulls you in or prompts you to sing along.

I wish I could articulate it better... I just know that singers like Bilal, and to a lesser degree Chris Brown, and Frank Ocean have a knack for crafting melodies that bring life to otherwise boring beats and rhythms. A lot of the songs here just come off as bland to me because Tay's melodies just don't marry well to the music...

FE just hasn't been my cup of tea since Leave It All Behind...

But what do I know....Y'all go head and keep the party goin....

It soars above the rest of their discography and set the benchmark. At least they try something different each time.

i mean, watching phontes evolution from lb to this, plus knowing WE were so close to it, PLUS the extra Zo and Tigallo type gems...how can you not ride for the whole FE family?

Like previous posters, LIAB remains the standard for me, and each release since then has been a departure from the next....i still rode for Authenticity, and LIFC was good music that didnt *really* grab me, even though Better was absolute heat.

Still, I dont hear any bad music on this release, its just that nothing resonates with *me*

The trajectory of FE is similar to the roots for me, in that with each release they gained new fans and solidified their core base, but each album cost them a small group that couldnt keep up with the changes.

While still a fan, i came in at DYWM, and havent bought a new release since Game Theory

Still a fan of FE, came in at Connected, but I am torn about making this purchase
