She was trying join the team, I told her wait!
Chicken wings and fries, we don't go out on dates!

And nikkas say Future isn't lyrical. I dunno what ya be listening but Future be dropping jewels, gems, and slick shyt all over these tracks. He a good rapper. Entertaining. nikkas forget we gotta entertain people. nikkas be all about thousand syllable rhymes but none of it entertains.. Make people press rewind like what did he just say?

that's like saying to kill a mockingbird is less entertaining than a magazine, lol! intricate lyrics can be entertaining and has been entertaining to many people. everything has it's place for entertainment as in a novel vs tabloid papers.

if you want dance music kaskade and steve aoki get it done way better without people mumbling on the track ....and the beats take you on a journey so it's not always constant loop with lyrics to express the meaning of the track.

few tracks sounds like a Weird Al parody album of rappers mumbling, tapping, syrup, strip clubs.....i lol at plastic bags like this can't be a real album at all. rapper used to dumb down....but this is a joke of an album. jeezy, ross, t.i. doing trap music >>>>>> this by leaps and bounds. I feel like the rapping is actually ruining the beats on this projects....the beats are decent, but if you have no lyrics don't loop the beats because the beats are suppose to tell the story and emotion.


I feel live from the gutter does the best job on using the beat to convey emotions. it feels dark and dreary like a movie panning over homeless people in the gutter and future sounding drunk really goes with the track. however, I feel like the ball was dropped on this project being a journey/work of art.


30 for 30 is classic hip hop and is frankly out of place for the project....drake should have saved it for his album. hell i would love a jay-z feature on this cut or kanye.....but we all know that ain't happening.
