If anything this is closer to a Cole album

Scaring The Hoes out now

They really saying Drake has a copyright on soul beats

Jack showed up on this one

lol racism.

you gon be a victim over another nigga on the internet

Don Toliver dropped this year

niggas came in here to write books

i'm out

It’s like he took the most off putting elements from Cole and Kendrick and put them on Do Not Disturb beats. One of the weirdest hip hop albums of all time

jack harlow vs yelawolf

Yelawolf son or Leslie Chow daughter

Boring

Admittedly, I laughed, but I disagree

this one’s not that bad!!

He sound a little more relaxed and confident on this

Still mid tho

10 songs 24 mins is insane for an album in 2023

I don’t even like Jack harlow music but this s*** is hitting im ngl

first spin atm. kinda reminds me of Logic...

Short albums >

what’s y’all’s favorite tracks on this?

they don’t like it and denver got the most replays from me

s***s honestly the perfect formula for him

feel like people get bored of jack pretty quickly so capping these songs at 2 mins is a good way to maintain people's attentions so they don't tune out

not to mention the gp's lack of attention spans for music anymore

this better than blueprint 3 ngl

Some thoughts about the new Jack Harlow album.

I don't know if he was in a hurry to put this out, but I would have preferred it if he took his time and actually fleshed out tracks 1-8 and 10 so they weren't so short. Maybe it was intentional, maybe he felt he'd said all he needed to say or maybe he didn't have more to add but either way, 90% of the songs on the album ending just as he's about to start heading somewhere doesn't do the album any favors. I don't understand. He's clearly not shooting for hits with this album so why not just go all the way if he was always gonna keep it at 10 songs?

One example of this is Gang Gang Gang — an excellent song in theory which falls short in execution. Why not focus on the story of Marcus in the first verse and tell that across three verses so it's an actual story that listeners could have gotten invested in?

The entire album feels like a missed opportunity and that's unfortunate because Jack is clearly a talented rapper. Listen to Ambitious and then listen to 9AM in Dallas. He tries to accomplish something similar but it's clear he really doesn't have anything potent to talk about because both songs hit differently. I might be alone in this but it's hard for me to connect to his music on a personal level. Before Drake, Kendrick and Cole were dropping albums on major labels, they'd won me over with their personal storytelling. That's what seems to be missing in Jack's music for me.

My advice to him would be to focus on just making bops because this lane will yield very little reward for him. His personal stories aren't compelling enough and that's partly because he doesn't take the time to really dig in and make them compelling. He can do the Drake thing where he tries to sprinkle more meaningful songs in between the bangers on his albums but then again, that's neither here nor there.

Overall, I'd say good project with a lot of missed potential. Better effort that his last album but his debut album still feels like a more complete offering to me. I'd give it a 6.5-7/10.
