I gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised at this album.
Wasn't really expecting it to be "good" if I'm being honest, but this is actually a solid album even without taking into account the handicap of her not being a years in the game MC and just picking up a mic after the age of 40. It's a solid album, PERIOD.
I made it through more than half the album so far, and there aren't really any tracks I skipped. The production is damn good and Bernadette holds it down. Doesn't embarrass herself and ends up making some good music.
This album reminds me so much of like an Infamous Mobb or Group Home album (after Livin Proof. Livin Proof lyrically was an all time travesty, lol). Dope, hardcore boom bap-esque production with adequate rapping that won't blow you away, but doesn't have you running to the fast forward/skip button either.
You put these beats on the Smif N Wessun album instead of the production they chose and it would have been an AOTY candidate.
