I am a big Jeezy(Young) fan and I can say overall this album
delivers. The weakest thing about it are the beats, which aren’t bad. Jeezy
raps with the same kind of fast flow that was prevalent on the Recession album.
The first half of so of the album has no guest spots, then about every song
after that has one. Its an odd construction but it works. The guest spots are
well used. I really liked Jay-z, August Alsina, and Lil Boosie’s verses. Of
course one of the best songs is the lead single Me OK. Overall I cant say Jeezy’s
skills are diminishing but he’ll have to really switch it up for his next
album.
Ok I am a big Schoolboy Q fan. I gotta say I love this album...but believe it or not what kept me from getting it till fall 2024 was that horrendous album artwork lol. I mean damn its gross! Schoolboy has some great flows and lyricism on this album. "Thank god 4 me" is absolute flames. "Blueslides" is another highlight. There's something about the song "first" that is just so catchy to me. "Yern" is also pretty hard man. The guest list is minimal but it works. The production is really good here too. The album isn't quite as good as Blank Face to me but its definitely a major improvement over his last album Crash Talk. Definitely check this one out. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93
