:smugfavre::feedme:

First one is dope I guess... should have stuck with



But when is this shyt dropping?!?!


:feedme:

That one is fire too, but I;m just a sucker for abstract drawings over photographs when it comes to album covers. Both with music and movies I prefer illustrated cover art.

As for when it's dropping, I keep hearing rumors that it might be a surprise drop tonight at midnight or tomorrow sometime. But I'm not counting on it. I do think it'll be either tomorrow or next Friday though.

Listening to GOAT and it’s a lot better than I remember. Between this and the original stuff he put on those Steroids mixtapes Daringer was def in his bag that year
Without a doubt. GOAT is one of my favorite releases after the dust settled on being underwhelmed from how hyped up it was. Dude was literally saying it was gonna be the best hip-hop release since Purple Tape, and while I don't think anyone expected that...this wasn't that far removed from The Cow, and he didn't have a ton of releases yet. So when he dropped it on Soundcloud with the tags fukked up it was mad frustrating.

In hindsight it's a solid release and I recommend it to people that may not want a no guest project like Blakk Tape. It's a good way to ease into his music without getting overwhelmed. I do think they fukked up by leaving off Westside Gunn. '94 Ghost, Spurs, Hell's Kitchen, and some of those Steroids joints that Daringer produced should've been on there.

And I still think Third F is mad repetitive and Mandatory sounds like a PRhyme leftover track.

I loved GOAT but some reason a lot of nikkas didn't. I guess him dropping on Soundcloud kinda spoiled it for a lot of people and then other tracks that didn't make it.

I just bout into the hype man. I was ready for the Schoolboy Q and Paak features. At that point he had less than a handful of mixtapes. Everyone was mad frustrated with the rollout and old songs like Rodney Little and Bullet Klub. We waited a few years for 8 new songs. But yeah. Going back to it now it's really dope.

I think Reject 2 and Blakk Tape are my favorites, but this is in the top 4 or 5, for sure.

Also one of his best cover arts.
