Listening for the first time. Had to rewind on the 2nd part of K. nikka sampled a clippers for the beat. That's hard

Finished yesterday. It was solid. I forgot what tracks stood out since a lot of the album just seems like one gigantic song, but I definitely like it

Some of his stuff isn't for me, but most of it is dope af. Yall kept acting like yall couldn't take him serious lol

Thanks,

I need to listen to this more. I was not expecting a concept album. My main issue is how things sometimes may feel overproduced especially how he sounds when he's rapping. Kinda get lost in the effects and production. Lot of Travis Scott and MBDTF on this. Sometimes the weaving in and out of genres/sounds works and is dope but at times, it takes me out of the experience particularly one of the more punk songs on the album.

That beat where it sounds like a hair clipper is dope lol.

Beats are on point!

Listen to once and though better than expected!

Give it a couple of more spins.

i prefer SYRE over EYRS... bars seem rushed/forced at points..

I recall Jada saying he made SYRE over a 2 year period. wonder how much time he put into this one..

 

[Vintage Eclectic]

Great album. This is more eccentric and experimental compared to SYRE (album should have been nominated... yea its that good) which is a great thing as it complements the yin/yang dualities in terms of concept.

Also his collabs with Willow are always on point, her music is also worth checking out

she said i don't need your love, i need somebody elseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

it burns me every time, it's because she's someone else

got old pictures of us, but she's with someone else

too far off the edge, i'm too far off the edgeeeeeeeee

This would be bigger if he wasnt Will and Jada’s kid.

Ive been playing this randomly around people without telling them who it is and they love it.

 

[JBone4eva]

Album is quality. I thought Syre was just decent on first listen, but that electric syre remix album he made was HEAT and really gave me faith in his next project. ERYS didn't dissapoint.

When the bass drop at 1:48,




"I'm really out here helping people you don't give a fukk about"

I made a thread basically saying the same, that album was fire and on some spittin shyt he's better than most of these dudes out (I hope he don't got a ghostwriter man, . I heard him say that he doesn't write anything down so idk, smh)

That part of that track is FIREEEEEEEEEE

I kinda hate how much I like this album as a whole even though I wish my man wasn't so cotton mouthed in a lot of it. Sometimes theres pretentious shyt in here but I really like the concept as a whole.

Liked Willow's singing
Liked his singing more on the crooning than the punk stuff tbh
Man can flow only wish he allowed his voice to shine instead of doing too much to it.

7.5-8/10 album
