Based God need to run a label. Producers & directors who started with lil b went on to work with bigger artist. Not to mention all the artist he birthed
And he could teach rappers how to sound natural on a beat
Too many rappers out here sounding like they're reading from a book and forcing hard pronunciations at the beginning of each bar :sas2:

On the 'A' side I personally liked (of the ones that haven't been released before)

Survival, Emotionless, 8 out of 10, Sandra's Rose, Talk Up and Is There More.

I liked the beat for Nonstop but the rapping was trash to me. I think 'Is There More' is the start of the B Side.
Talk up is hot. Only one imo. I didn’t hear it on first listen cause I cut it short.

Emotionless
8 out of 10
Sandra’s Rose
Is There More

This guy's music hasn't evolved since Take Care. NWTS had some fire on it, but I honestly feel like he's been going through the motions, when it comes to albums, for years now. His formula will always generate atleast a couple hits and he'll go double plat minimum with this, but I found myself zoning out listening to this album. I'm generally against double albums because artists rarely are able to generate enough good to great tracks to warrant them, but Big K.R.I.T just dropped an amazing one at the end of last year. Less is more when it comes to Drake. The themes and topics he raps about aren't varied enough to fill two albums without it all just starting to sound the same.

Emotionless is my fave track off here from first listen, definitely going in the playlist. Nonstop is fire too. That said, lotta skippable tracks esp in the second half. Gonna say 6/10, nowhere close to take care
