Last 4 tracks are fire, why? Because he spitting on Hard Soulful beats.

Leave that Trap flow alone. That ain't your lane,East.

I'll have to disagree...East new age and he has one of the best flows in the game. He doesn't sound out of place on shyt like that...

Phone Jumping
Maneuver
Dirty Little Secret

That's all I got...This doesn't have the standouts the previous one had like...

SDE
Don't Shoot
Can't Ignore
Type Of Time

I would love to see this nikka rocking on some of Rozay & Travis Scott's beats

I don't think he's boring. It's more of a I'm too cool for school feeling with him. He's sounds way too comfortable compared to his earlier projects.

i seen a comment somewhere they said he's the "ghetto'' version of J. Cole, which might be accurate. but i mess with dude's music alot. he's got bars, he just needs to pick the charisma up a little more.

He's relying too heavy on being a real Harlem nikka. East is the 2nd coming of Vado with better bars. He can spit but he just doesn't have that it factor to take him up a notch. He's definitely not weak on bars and has a decent flow but it gets old.

shyt is dope not better that KC but its dope for EP holdover till the album. Everybody is doing this in hip hop except the og and legends. I am pissed about the Nas finesse tho ..but he is a harlem/queens nikka.

its alright. could end up being pretty forgettable to be honest.
nothing hit me like that on here. theres 5 maybe 6 joints that are pretty good.

They Hated
Maneuver
Have You Ever
..............being my favorites.

i can't see this being something that wins doubters over or gains him new fans like that.

after two listens to this new Dave East EP.....Vado newest project better.
