Man the density of punches is so intense with Soul! Halfway through and even if it won’t top CS & Herbert for me Soul just never misses when it comes to his writing skills
Also there was a bunch of talk of this sounding mainstream itt but this feels artsy in the same realm as Blue Lips did for Q. This is def not accessible hiphop for the average listener lol
Righteous Man is the ONE.. need the next album to be on this level all throughout. This not touching his best work but his pen is so great that I’ll return to it anyway even if the music isn’t always amazing. Also feel like this could grow on me still bc some tracks have a weird structure that I’ll def have to warm up to.
But yeah I’m not having those initial “this is AOTY potential” that I had with Herbert
Idk who said this like These Days 2 was very much on point. It does feel like a sequel to that album but with a current day Soul writing it for sure
I really hoped Ty was gonna be singing singing on the Go Pro joint not doing this monotone rapping s***
Dj Hed can't tell me this one's a slap
TDE fumbled not putting the Mustard joint on here after the success of Not Like Us that Mustard placement would've put a lot of eyes on Soul
And I still just can't get over how you have a Doechii feature and she just does backing vocals and then the next joint you got this weed carrier chick rappin instead of a doechii verse?
You coulda still had notorious niq and get a doechii verse on that song too she woulda gone crazy on that beat I can just hear it
idk what tf tde is doing
they can easily help soul become mainstream giving him a song with sza or something
those cheap bangers ain't gonna do anything
A SZA joint and a Kendrick joint and he woulda got a lot of looks. And keeping the mustard joint on the album too

Don't see it
DJ Hed need to be banned from every studio in California
lol what happened?
Relistening to CS rn
Man this album aged beautifully
A lot of Soul's production choices after that album has been very hit or miss
HERBERT is the only album that comes close to it production wise
DJ Hed need to be banned from every studio in California
Yeah what was all that about slaps, why he put em on the spot like this
Wheres the slap
This not accessible
Its your regular ab-soul type release
Yeah what was all that about slaps, why he put em on the spot like this
Wheres the slap
All That is the only one. Dj Hed promised us 3
I know it's early still but this might be his worst album to me I'm really not feeling this. Really disappointing following from Herbert which was so good
this feels artsy in the same realm as Blue Lips did for Q.
Don't see it
I mean not as much and not on the same level, but def in the way songs are structured, some of the production and the pockets he gets into vocally
Def not as mainstream sounding as was proclaimed itt
