The Andre 3k cameo was a surprise. Good to hear him back with the DF. He flexed a new flow on this one. Organized Noize production throughout is fantastic. Gipp, in particular, is in top notch emcee form throughout here. T-Mo coming strong too throughout. Cee-Lo more in spoken word mode here than anything like, say, Microhard, so anybody who had prior concerns about Lo "outshining" the other three on the mic, that didn't happen on this album (side note: Lo flexes dope new flows on Off Road and Me Tyme). I am still listening as I type this. Very happy to hear a Big Rube interlude. He kills it as always.
Peace,

3028428, Shit got turned off after 6 songs

Ever since World Party these dudes have been terrible.
Not sure why they try to stay relevant instead of doing what they do best.
They need to get back on that soulful down south vibe ASAP.

3028487, Stay relevant? I don't think you even listened to this record

Nothing about that album sounds like they're trying to fit in with what's coming out of Atlanta in 2020. What are you talking about when you say "stay relevant" (as in, which songs? where? what?)?
Peace,

3028445, I'll settle this

Gimmie a little while, I'll be right back and we can sort out if this album is fire, or trash that should be turned off after 6 songs.

There’s a dip. They survive it and come out strong. There’s at least 3 songs that had no business making the album from tone and quality standpoints. I see a lot about rap acts being repetitive. But the mix up just for the sake of mixing it up doesn’t always work out. This album has that so be ready to step over some missteps and roll on.

3028448, I did not enjoy what I heard

3028453, I liked a handful of joints

Not a strong outing. Curry Goat, No Cigar, Me Tyme, Back2Back and Amazing Grays are the only joints I'd run back. ONP let me down a little with the production.

3028468, It's been a minute but...Is Organized Noise involved?
Posted by LeroyBumpkin, Mon Nov-16-20 04:23 PM
Cause that's all I would care about.

Produced the entire album. Not some of their best work imo
|
3028475, Kinda skimmed it at first.
Posted by JFrost1117, Mon Nov-16-20 08:58 PM
The Big Boi song is a lot better than the Stacks song. It feels like recording in Stankonia doesn’t let ONP get those dark tones that they were getting in the Dungeon for Soul Food and Still Standing. Their beats sound thin.
|
3028488, I liked the Stacks verse better. Give it another spin

3028480, I didn't like it.

Just not my cup of tea.

3028507, off-road is pretty great
Posted by mista k5, Thu Nov-19-20 01:16 PM
didnt like it when it first started but it quickly grew on me and kept getting better.
some other good songs on it but overall its pretty mid. i thought it might end up pretty bad after the first two songs but it picks up after that.
|
3028518, Listened to the whole thing. It was forgettable.

3028605, Best Album This Year...
Posted by tzt2004, Tue Nov-24-20 11:49 PM
Some of yall are crazy, and obviously didn't give the record a chance. The album is consistently solid from top to bottom. No weak links.
I haven't heard anything better this year.
|
3028629, 3 stars overall, on a full listen.
Posted by JFrost1117, Thu Nov-26-20 04:17 AM
Off Road and Try We totally lost me in the middle, but it starts and ends pretty dope.
|
3028639, Off Road is not my fav but I like Try Me.
