Tried to do a weekly 5x5 and
Lol it must be a wave rn. Brand New and Trent Reznor connection is crazy.
Good taste
I like his bangers too, but I also like when he’s versatile as well.
I think he does both well.
That’s why he does both tho
Melt My Eyez was only two years ago
What are people here whining about? 4 tracks in and it’s his hardest album since imperial
Need Hot One with the middle verse removed
you trippin she bodied that verse
I’ve seen some people in here happy that he’s just making Bangers, and that’s great and all. But it does come off a bit one dimensional. And I get it, this project is for the people that really love that Memphis sound, and where Denzel started. But for me, it’s like he’s not that artist anymore and he’s grown and progressed since.
And I’m sorry for the day 1s that don’t really like when he artistically ventures into something different. But Melt My Eyez is his best album to me. If you look at this album as a side project after thiat ambitious effort, then it’s cool. It’s not bad in that context at all. If you look at it as his next big follow-up, yeah, it’s disappointing.
But I don’t think that was Denzel’s intention with this album. I think he just wanted to give the people who strictly like him for his hype s***, some bangers to chew on. And next album will be the true follow up to Melt My Eyez.
Kinda lame that you devolve this into a "not as artistic" pocket just because it's hard Florida/Memphis sound lol
This is more than "just bangers"
you trippin she bodied that verse
One of her worst verses imo
Ik her thing is always changing up her voice, that one she did should never be revisited

this the first place i have seen negative reaction about her part
Same
What really stands out to me on that project versus the rest of his is that the hooks are absolutely on point for some reason

I’ve spun this 2-3 times and it’s not really. This is just a project full of bangers with a ton of features. Nothing more, nothing less. He did a “back to basics” album.
Does that make it inherently not artistic? No that’s not what I said at all. He’s still a music artist and it’s something he’s created, that is artistic in itself. It just clearly wasn’t his goal to make something in an “artsy” vein, as it was with some of his previous work.
It’s a step back from Melt My Eyez because it’s one dimensional in comparison. You get 15 tracks (a few interludes included) of the same type of Memphis/Florida production throughout the entire album. For someone who really appreciated that he had something to say on Melt My Eyez and showed out with a variety of different sounds within the same album, yeah it’s disheartening. It gets repetitive by the end.
There’s still a few tracks on here I like though. Set It, G’z Up and Hit The Floor were all added to my playlist.
Yea this joint hard, I see what Denzel doing No need to overcomplicate it. Shout out Kingpin Skinny Pimp :datass:
