underachiever
Br00ses šJan 17Ā·1 replyTUNDRA IVI canāt lie to you I hate the transformers level product placement Rocky does with the brands he has deals with.
maybe because it isnāt as clever as he normally does it. Mercedes bars, Raybans we get it 
The puma bar on helicopter was cool tho
I mean I just see it as normal rapper braggadocio
It's pretty cool to have a brand deal with Mercedes tbh

sfsorrowidk how i feel yet but i feel like testing was such a victim of bad rollout + context of his discog it was released in. it would be received so much better if released now tbh
It literally came out the same day as Daytona + infrared
And duppy freestyle was that Saturday.

If I had a brand deal with Mercedes I'd probably remind people about it just in daily conversation tbh

Oblivion X2nd verse of helicopter a good example, bro was on auto pilot for it. Especially when you compare it to how good his first verse was
Then you have lines like this throughout the album
Been s***tin' on everything, wasn't even potty-trained
And
my b**** badder than my toddler
And some of the lines just seem kinda elementary
Like the 1st verse on the intro
Remember how you act (Uh-uh)
Talk behind my back (Uh-uh)
Talk all kind of trash (Uh-uh)
My back, all kind of stabs (Uh, uh)
You was throwin' jabs (Uh-uh)
You want me on my ass (Uh-uh)
Down to my last (Uh-uh)
S***, they'd probably laugh (Uh-uh)
I can't go out sad (Uh-uh)
I keep bouncin' backIts not like terrible or anything, just feels like a step down from at least ALLA
We talking about A$AP Rocky here man
The guy was NEVER ālyricalā, at least not to the extent youāre implying
Heās had moments of great lyricism but thatās never been his bag
His main draw as a rapper has ALWAYS been his charisma, flow, and delivery
Saying a Rocky album doesnāt have crazy bars in 2026 is likeā¦ okay? Thatās kinda always been the appeal

Jan 17There was no reason for any flexing bars on STFU bro had to be spitting some radical s*** on there

i mean unfortunately we waited this long for an album because rocky thinks heās a superstar lol
Jan 17I feel like I gotta quit the tradition of revisiting an artistās discog in the days leading up to the new drop because it always ends up getting too nostalgic and kinda souring the new release
like before this week I hadnāt heard TESTING since like 2023 and ALLA since 2021 or smth but now Iām comparing DBD to them like theyāve been my favorite albums of all time- Jan 17Ā·2 repliesTUNDRA IV

Moments, for sure, no doubt. But thatās never been his bag, not in the way that it is for guys like Drake, Kendrick, Cole, etc.
Heās always been the flow & charisma guy

Re listen to ALLA
The bars were a lot more concentrated (not saying he was Black Thought) and he the flows were consistentAlmost feels like he had Kanye syndrome of forgetting how to rap

Oh yeah it's not his main appeal
But he's fully capable of it and has done it before so I can see someone being a bit disappointed
But tbh I don't agree anyway
