I fukk with some of this, and 'Plastic Bag' had such a sick beat.....but, I don't really want to hear about strippers and magic city for 4 minutes...esp. detailed lyrics about picking up cash in plastic bags....I was ready for some trap shyt....easily the best beat on here, and I can't even really fukk with it. Hope Gotti or Pusha or someone grabs this beat. That shyt let me down. Really strong production, very disposable 'lifestyle' lyrics....

I like Drake, and some Future, it's just very superficial, call it meme music.... kinda dumbed down edgeless trap/coke rap made for mainstream and audience that doesn't really live that....a bunch of dudes who work 9-5 throwing it up to this in the club on Friday lol....but there are some nice tracks here.

'Diamonds Dancing' is my favorite on here and a good fusion of their styles...I like '30 For 30' too, 'Live From The Gutter' and one or two more. I think 'I'm The Plug' was overrated as fukk, I didn't like it like that....I was waiting for a Drake verse that came and went, cool flow, nothing to say...

I hate to quote Waka but when he said this in an interview I almost applauded him.. Hip hop is wack now because the only sound that gets any play is the songs about the club, and that cant be the only thing on the radio.. There is no diversity anymore amongst the top producers and rappers..

I gave this a few listens....

I think you really got to like future to be into this, the production on this is mediocre to me but maybe its just a younger generation thing because according to you nikkaz this metro dude is killing, I don't hear it.... the tracks from 40 are much more fulfilling.


2.5/5

I mean listen, you can tell they made this in six days, these are like throwaway songs that the public shouldn't here for the most part, aside from a few bangers.

The best song is 30 for 30 and that's not even a collab with future and drake.

I literally think future could say the same exact thing on every song and as long as the beat is a little different yall go crazy... I don't see it. I do give him credit for hitting that high note on Diamonds Dancing.
:whew: so I am not crazy... I was starting to think I was a hater, there needs to be another word used to describe these types rappers because great, dope, good or any other word thrown around to describe these weirdos is blasphemous to those that really deserve the praise...

and to be honest this younger generation excuse we are givin is whats allowing these wack nikkas to eat, why cant the standards just been lowered? why cant we just say these dudes are only good to people that club every day and do drugs.. idk but I haven't listened yet and am scared to just cause I don't believe future can make music I want to hear

The more I listen, the more this feels like heat. It's got a 56 nights vibe to me, which is good :manny:

Definitely sounds like it has some club bangers

Meek said its fukkboy season, he ain't gonna learn
Unless he's in the studio and composing a quality diss track , his words hold no weight no more , I really despise that nikka at this point I didn't foreshadow this outcome at all son just continues to lash out on social media like a hormonal teenage girl smh ...
