Second full listen and Iām at the gym wit it
Yea this project is just okay to me. Itās not really exciting or interesting in a way that has me just pressed to come back to it. I think the production is the main sore spot for me. This sort of minimalist/ambient plugg style trap beats just donāt do it for me and idk maybe itās just a personal preference but they feel unfinished and repetitive.
When you alternate the playlist so that MIKE and Earl go back to back for the entire album

YES
Earl describing the sessions for this as āfriedā and ānonverbalā make perfect sense lol they even said they would just leave songs unfinished because they liked where they were at at the moment š¤£
Never been more vindicated

Niontay has the best verse on the entire album lowest of all keys
I like the album. Idk if Iām crazy about it yet. I think Iām still crazy over the fact it happened and it wasnāt a predictable thing they would do with the beats.
My main complaint is Earls side. On Twitter itās a ongoing joke and hate of earls ālazyā flow. I was always someone who didnāt mind it cause heās always barring up crazy. But Jesus man for the beats he picked on his side heās like doing them such a injustice with the lazy flow delivery
The way Earl rapped on that 2010 beat is how his delivery should of been the ENTIRE album.
prod by earl and harrison
!https://youtu.be/wYXzXPHA69Q?si=32n3_PgB6XDu-e3qrly sick that Harrison seemingly inspired Earl a good bit w beatmaking, I rly hope he's gonna go back to producing more
also RYP got great taste ngl also respect him working so much w Gud


that the way he records is artistic intent and obv a performance aint the same but when i saw him last year for LLL tour it wasnt that crazy a difference and bro was fried the whole night so the delivery comes with that imo
Because LLL the nigga was awake lmao thats why it aint sound that different silly
If thatās his magnum opus then what is Some Rap Songs?
Runner up obviously
iām gonna be honest, i WILL be comparing this to Faith is a Rock
its better
Yall gotta remember earl sleepy style works a lot when itās on his certain types of beats that people get used to.
When the type of production is 808 heavy and bassy full of percussion, a sleepy flow is gonna be jarring ESPECIALLY if the year before bro dropped his best/most awake album since Sick! (Fucking fire album)
Personally think the reason people underrating Mike album to earlās is cause, with all due respect Pinball and some of Pinball 2 is s***ting on a good portion of Mikeās album production wise.
Where tf was evilgiane?
SB: not a bad album but I get a lot of the criticisms
is it good 1st couple songs reminded me of lucki n veeze but with less passion
Itās good for sure. Iām just not really into Earl doing that flow on THESE beats. Any other itās great
