I like FATD personally but I agree with you after 2 days. It feels like he doesn't really care anymore about crafting actual projects like NWTS, he just wants to be the biggest artist ever when it comes to numbers and thats it

I already had this fear a few weeks ago where I said he will go back doing projects like CLB/Scorpion etc. and got attacked for my "bad takes" btw

Honestly, I wish he would try it again with a cohesive record but I just dont see it happening this decade anymore. He still wants to prove so much that he's the biggest artist ever for no reason. I think the reception to HN last year broke him mentally

S*** is hot man idk what to tell you

Listen again and discover for yourself or don’t

yeah because there is no topic differences in any songs lmao. besides 8am i chose those two solely on his singing and production, the writing was so mediocre

ive already seen a few threads of fans forcing themselves to listen to the album over and over until they like it

thats how low we have stooped

i disagree with the CLB and Scorpion takes tho, those albums are incredible to me. i do feel as if he treats his albums like playlists now, and this album has felt the biggest negative impact from that choice

That the thing with y’all just bc y’all don’t like the album doesn’t mean others don’t

zip his pants up when you done btw

Eat s***

I like CLB and Scorpion too but they're also bloated like FATD

You can cut a few songs off every album, on FATD even more

album is dogshit lmao

i can’t believe i actually liked the Travis album more

every album will have songs you dont like, but at least i can see the appeal in a majority of the songs that I would scrap off of CLB and scorpion. i feel none of that with the filler on fatd

you're a dumbass im talking about people that literally dislike the album once they heard it. they only start "liking" it afterwards bc they've hyped it up too much and need to justify that hype

Fair enough

cooked his ass

this is his worst album

i hope i come around to enjoy this because i gain nothing from not enjoying one of my favorite artists albums, however i jus dont see this growing on me

“Cooked his ass”

Honestly Nevermind wasn't cohesive? wasnt well crafted?

Lol

See i’m at odds with his music post IYRTITL. I always have liked every project that has been put out. Views is great, More Life is slept on, Scorpion I also enjoy a ton, DLDT is fantastic, CLB, Honestly Nevermind, and Her Loss are also solid projects. I also have gripes with those projects as well parts of it or some songs and it is what it is. With this newest album to me it just feels different (all the internet nonsense aside)

This album to me just feels not all that great it isn’t hitting like the others did first listens. The only short projects post IYRT are DLDT and Honestly Nevermind (sure Her Loss as well). Everything else is 20 songs, 22 songs, 25 songs, 21 songs and now 23 songs. There is something to be said about these long track lists endlessly for sure.

As much as I enjoy his new stuff I will always love the older stuff for sure i’ve just come to terms with that. He easily did anywhere from 15-19 tracks on these old projects and the songs were just more engaging. At least for me especially from first listen to say 5 years later. Sure time will tell with the new record but to me I feel like people are clinging onto what will never come back. He’s in a different place now musically and has to evolve otherwise we’d be talking about how he hasn’t changed musically.

It’s a huge thing to discuss because everybody has their own issues with these projects now. Including myself and it can range from what people are hating the most about it. From the track lists being way too long, filler tracks, effortless songs, corny lyrics, idk anything people come up with lol.

I just take it for what it is these days with music especially an artist of his caliber. He’s trying to appeal to a lot of people and I get it. People can be too harsh or too nice and overlook things. It’s important to have a convo about it rather than s***ting on things and people for likes. I know not many will read my riff lol but hey if you want to i’m more than happy to have a discussion about this project or previous ones.

i wish i was that thick

Album fire. It’s about hating your exes and your exes hating you. Real ones relate

Just because you dislike it doesn’t mean everyone has to.
