this is why i understand why he makes this bloated ass albums past 3 years.
casual audience will listen to songs that hardcore hip hop fans think is filler
The opposite is true as well.

Like Sandra's Rose is my favorite, but please believe that there's airheads asking why there's no hook on it, that they don't get half of the references and shyt like that.

This is my biggest critique. It’s not even that it’s bad it just sounds like what he’s already been doing but not as good. I swear there’s like 5 songs that sound just like those 6am in Toronto, 5pm Calabassas, 2 birds one stone. Those songs are cool for being standalone drops where he’s addressing shyt or dissing someone but they don’t sound good on an album unless it’s an outroor something. He’s just talking on the beat.
This. He's stuck in a creative rut. Tried listening to this again and it was task. Even his "singing" is all starting to sound the same and he has the same approach to these joints. Die hards will enjoy this but this aint cutting it for me.
