Mike was rapping like they had his mama at gunpoint and told him “snap or she die” lol

Dre still sounding futuristic almost 30 years into his career
3043066, This song kinda sucks.

3043069, Beat* lol.

I hate drumless beats.
3043075, ^^didn't listen to the whole song^^

3043077, Sure didn't lol
Posted by Brew, Wed Jun-14-23 01:50 PM
3043076, also..
Posted by A Love Supreme, Wed Jun-14-23 01:45 PM
i wouldn't call this a "beat". it's more arranged and with a lot of live instruments.
3043079, This was dope

I liked how they used Future especially. His voice and flow seemed well suited to the ad-libs used here.

And Andre's verse was really dope. I haven't been a big fan of his solo work, for whatever reason, but this verse sounds great to me.

And yeah, Killer Mike was great.

3043088, Yea! This one special

3043091, i liked the Dre verse a *lot*
Posted by thebigfunk, Thu Jun-15-23 07:23 AM
He is on other shit these days, in the best way, particularly what he's doing in terms of playing with flow.

Future immediately made the track almost unplayable.

Mike was dope as usual but... I don't know, I kind of feel like he has one or two lanes that he rarely swerves from and this was no exception.

*ducks*

And just to save some face, Mike's great, love RAP Music and a lot of RTJ stuff, but rarely listen to more than a few of his tracks in a row for the reason mentioned above. Placed in contrast with Dre is sort of interesting in that sense, bc I feel like Dre is literally experimenting on *every* feature he has these days.

3043098, I’ll never understand the appeal of Future
Posted by DJR, Thu Jun-15-23 09:56 AM
He always sounds terrible. I don’t get it.
3043100, Future is the outreach to the young folk I guess
Posted by spirit, Thu Jun-15-23 02:17 PM
I thought he did okay enough, but 3k and Mike are definitely the stars on this show

Peace,

3043146, honestly futures involvement prolly brought the most listeners.

as much as i like killer mike...his stuff isnt even cracking half a million views on youtube on its own.
3043114, New album MICHAEL is very good, produced by No I.D.
Posted by Oak27, Fri Jun-16-23 03:04 PM
3043148, Whole album is great
Posted by josephmurf2384, Tue Jun-20-23 11:57 AM
I like it a lot.
3043149, Crazy nice

Love the video too.

Need to close caption this shit cause bars were lightning strikes.
3043150, This shit is an Iverson crossover for the brain:

3043151, I haven't finished it, but I love what I've heard.

The nerd in me wants all albums to have a full documentary. "Scientists & Engineers" says Stacks, No ID, and DJ Paul contributed to production, and my brain needs to know how all those puzzle pieces fit together.
3043159, great track and album
Posted by mista k5, Wed Jun-21-23 05:46 PM
I need to give it more listens but for me it's hands down AOTY so far.
3043161, Absolutely beautiful album
Posted by Original Juice, Thu Jun-22-23 12:38 AM
I can't stop listening.

This is as good as.. if not better than.. R.A.P. Music.
3043163, Is this whole thing produced by No ID ?
Posted by Brew, Thu Jun-22-23 08:46 AM
3043164, Production credits:

3043167, Ah, my bad for the misinformation in post #11
Posted by Oak27, Thu Jun-22-23 12:58 PM
3043166, Mike says 3k got an album coming.

I don't believe it'll happen. won't get my hopes up.
3043171, Yeah, I'll believe it when it's in my hands.
Posted by JFrost1117, Thu Jun-22-23 07:20 PM
And there's still a chance it won't be what we think. He's always been so concrete about not wanting to rap full-time at his age, I'd wonder what the change of heart was.
3043172, I made up a 3 Stacks album…. because I got high

3043183, Stacks prolly told him to fix that lol
Posted by tariqhu, Fri Jun-23-23 08:03 PM
keep expectations and pressure low.
3043268, this album is a slapper
Posted by fontgangsta, Thu Jun-29-23 08:16 AM
from end to end
AOTY for me so far
3043274, this album goes!
Posted by tariqhu, Thu Jun-29-23 02:02 PM
but I still can't really get into the 3k song. Future throws me off.

the first half reminds me of Kast's E.T. joint, which was never above a cool song to me even though the bars are good.

maybe if the beat was under Dre and not just Mike,, but whateves. there's enough that bangs for on this album.

3043287, Finally got to listen in the car instead of headphones.
Posted by JFrost1117, Fri Jun-30-23 04:01 PM
Definitely an elevated experience. This shit is amazing.
3043296, haha that's exactly what I did.
Posted by tariqhu, Sat Jul-01-23 10:46 AM
headphones couldn't present it well enough.
3043557, I came here to post this!
Posted by DJR, Sat Aug-05-23 10:15 PM
I’m in my car in the driveway right now listening to Spaceship Views and I don’t want to get out of the car and go inside, lol. It’s so good. Spaceship Views and Exit 9 back to back….those are my 2 favorites right now, but this whole album goes.
3043422, been listenting to this album heavy since it came out.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri Jul-21-23 07:41 AM
this song didn't stand out to me. not saying it ain't dope, but it didn't grab me until I saw the video.

https://youtu.be/Uvo7FPO7DeE

my eyes watered up.
3043448, That shit is heavy.
Posted by JFrost1117, Sat Jul-22-23 03:21 PM
3043565, yeah this is great
Posted by mista k5, Wed Aug-09-23 11:58 AM
I haven't been listening to it as much as I should be but I think this is clearly my favorite album of the year so far. I really like every track on it. Only ones that aren't hitting as hard are the older singles that I've already over played.
3043590, How could yall hate the future addition.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Tue Aug-15-23 02:38 PM
It's just the right amount of him.
