Nah he was supposedly there the night before or something like that. Wasn’t anybody recognizable in there. But I did see atleast 3 lambos out front so maybe someone famous was in there and I missed them. :yeshrug:

  14. March 14


Survival ain't the one for an intro bruh...bush that shyt. You can clearly tell he re-wrote it about 1min in to try to address the chopper suits and deadbeat stuff. Start it with 8/10 and it's lively and pulls you in. Survival is good for 1 listen and it's skip status afterwards.


1. 8 out of 10
2. Emotionless
3. Can't take a joke
4. Mob ties
5. That's How You Feel
6. In my feelings
7. Nice For What
8. Sandra's Rose
9. Elevate
10. God's Plan
11. Nonstop
12. Talk Up ft. Jay-Z
13. Blue Tint
14. After Dark ft. Static Major and Ty $
15. Jaded
16. Finesse

You trim about 25 min off of the album run time and it isn't a chore to listen to. Listen to it in that sequence and tell me if i'm wrong.

I still don't like the album thought. I fukks with Blue Tint because the homie Supah Mario made the beat and he's from my hometown and actually made the Ice Melt beat on More Life too]

I think the album is unfocused, bloated and is sequenced wrong. You can clearly hear the last minute changes they made and on several songs he's just rapping to say he raps and lacks energy. On the singing songs he wasted some beats with Jaded and Finesse. Even with After Dark i feel he was the low point of the song as his verse was not a fit for the beat or song.

Songs I can rock: Blue Tint, Elevate, After Dark, Talk Up, 8 out of 10, and Can't Take a Joke
Songs I can tolerate: In My Feelings, Emotionless, Sandra's Rose, Mob Ties
Songs that are sometimes skip status: Gods Plan, Jaded, Finesse
Songs that are not getting any play from me at all: The rest

I'm at Prospect Park, drunk as fukk, and Drake been playing off and on and if you don't get out you won't understand why he exists. Drake is the perfect vibe for the middle class urban spot. And the ghetto spot. As long as he can make hits he's set. The masses don't care about anything else.

Survival is such a lack luster opener. I would've preferred 8 out of 10 or Elevate as an opener. Not a bad song, it's sounds like 9 off views but I would've preferred a Free Smoke/Tuscan Leather type intro.

The Jay collab is so uninspiring mailed in shyt.

A mailed in Jay verse is equivalent to a top notch Migos verse.
