MMLP2- GOAT marketing, but man, it really emphasized the worst of Em in the 2010s. Failed to be a successor both literal or spiritual. Ended up being a compilation of offbeat battle raps with WOAT hooks. Bad Guy was amazing and everything else after was mid.
That’s fair he’s one of the best rappers in his lane. Ion mean to put him in a box but if he’s gonna market his album on some “Im gonna take y’all back to 2016” s***. You can’t expect fans to not expect that melodic Uzi that was everywhere in 2016, the year he was referring to
i just remember hating the production and he was rapping slower than usual idk i just wanted good ass job with them LR orchestra hip hop.
You’re absolutely right
It grew on me over time but initially I thought it was a step down from the first albums. Just didn’t seem as ambitious
Now I understand why he went that direction. I was young so I didn’t realize that people were running off with the soul sound he popularized
Nasir - Nas didnt have anything interesting to say
Jesus Is King - i still love the album but i was expecting it to be another classic
A Written Testimony - probably too early to tell but a compilation of 10 of his loosies is better than this album
Magna Carta - just sounds like a soulless safe version of WTT
Way Back sample was super hard
The producers didn’t even do nun to it
Don Toliver’s new album. Had some good/borderline great songs, but nothing touched the singles and Situation
I feel this super heavily. My expectations were through the roof though and I can only blame myself for that but I still love the project
KRIT Iz Here- 4eva Is A Mighty Long Time was a classic caliber album and this as a follow up was reaching for commercial success and felt off, KRIT’s Crash Talk tbh
TPAB - Fake woke sht, alien voices, and i wanted another gkmc
Astroworld - hype was insane product was mid to mediocre
Views - hype was insane mediocre rapping too much mainstream sht
blankface - expected q to come harder
mmlp2 - sequel to a top 3 rap album ever and u have skylar grey and rap god. terrible
Maybe that's why TPAB disappointed you, you wanted another GKMC.Evolution is better than repetition.

no the album is still mediocre regardless.
In recent memory:
FLYGOD is an Awesome God - s*** just lacked everything a great WSG project usually has. A lot of forgettable tracks
Nasir - Nas and Kanye don’t have the best chemistry imo.
We Major
That rakim song. CLASSIC
i thought that meme was over?
and if it is, i thought you kids were always up on the new memes? get craeative, child i believe in you. the future is bright.
the future is not bright my generation is full of re tards
I love it today but i was shocked when i first heard TPAB when it dropped cuz I was just literally expecting a GKMC 2.0

Started with amazing hype with Days in the East, U With Me OG Snippet, a dark and reflective vibe and the title album VIEWS FROM THE 6, wow, what a time, but... Meek Mill started with the bullshit and the album go for another way, it became a commercial album, sad. Have good joints like KTFC, Weston Road F, Redemption... But have too much fillers, no cohesion and the corny dancehall vibe,
EA
No innovation, Uzi tried to rap alot but it made the album sound like spam with the repetitive lyrics.
Damn - some good tracks but some tracks I really hate also, not nearly as good as TPAB or GKMC
Most of Vince Staples stuff since summertime 06
Astroworld to some degree
Slime Language by Thugger (still love him tho)
surprised no one has said huncho jack bc most people were disappointed by it even though I love it
Kanye - graduation and 808s.- nothing like the CD/LR vibes
Nas - Hip Hop is dead - he sounded out of touch but it grew
Jay z - BP2 - hovlaff
Camron - Killa Season - i was hype after purple haze but nah.
Lil Wayne - C3 - lotta hype for lotta nothing.
Grad 808s HHID and C3 are dope sry
TPAB - Fake woke sht, alien voices, and i wanted another gkmc
Astroworld - hype was insane product was mid to mediocre
Views - hype was insane mediocre rapping too much mainstream sht
blankface - expected q to come harder
mmlp2 - sequel to a top 3 rap album ever and u have skylar grey and rap god. terrible
If Ride Out isn’t hard. I don’t know what is.
