in retrospect the fact we got suns tirade in a 2 year turnaround was crazy

That album still sounds fresh to me whenever I put it on. It's one of the few true classic albums of that decade, in my opinion.

In retrospect the fact a 2 year turnaround used to be the norm for mainstream artists is crazy

4-5 years is the new 2-3

Chill pill got me high, but can I lay wit yaaa?

it's beginning

Just realised but the fact that this nigga has dropped a total of only 3 projects is disgusting as a fan man

Ain't no album man

Still think these 4-5 year album periods are insane for an artist like Rashad. Could totally understand if he was producing and writing like an Earl, but all he has to do is go through a few concepts before picking a direction. Or at a minimum pick beats and rap.

He's one of the few artists I understand with these long ass waiting periods D*** issues, baby momma drama, that video leaking. Nigga been through a lot. Plus he seems to have the same perfectionist s*** SZA seems to suffer from

Need him to lock in for this next one though. THIB was pretty disappointing, even more so after I heard the M4DV leaks

I'm tired of him teasing a rollout tbh

Prolly getting it in the fall

When it comes to zay ion care about nothing unless there's a date on my @Jim_Halpert_ s***

Literally lol

Amen brother

Counting leaks we have like 5 albums

I wonder how much of this is TDE rather than the perfectionist s*** because if we being real I feel like every TDE artist takes a long ass time to drop projects

This s*** tragic

jay rock not dropping since 2018 is actually absurd lmfao

It kinda makes sense though. Especially if you think about that run when he dropped singles for a whole year. They realized there's no demand for jay rock and his whole style is kinda too antiquated so there's no reason to drop at the moment. They know the only audience he has are essentially TDE fans

I honestly just think TDE doesn't pressure artists to drop at all. The formula of not dropping trash and having the hype build up over time works really well. If Isaiah Rashad was dropping every year none of us would be checking for him anymore tbh

what would be wrong with dropping even a tape or EP though?
