Its hard judging music on the first listen, but this seemed damn good. Has a real summer feel to it. Earl was kind of wack on this. 3 Stacks killed it though. Pyramids, Bad Religion, Monks, Pilot Jones were the standouts to me. Didn't sound like there was a bad track on it.

The album is good but there are a lot of problems with it:

lyrics/song themes are too abstract. I dont know what he's talking about half the time.:what:

the best songs (songs with most potential) are too short, have no lyrics (White) or are intros/interludes/outros. I hate this. It just gets your hopes up for the full song and then youre let down. Why do artists do this? :damn:

Pyramids is NINE MINUTES LONG. The second half (she headed to the pyramid, etc....) is the best part and will never become a single because of this. He needs to release a remix with a rapper. Kanye? :win:

Earl Sweat basically coppied Camrons flow on Super Rich Kids :stopitslime:

Everyone thinks hes gay because of one song (forest gump) and he's probably singing from the perspective of a cheerleader or something. How can you tell really. You can argue one way or another cause all his songs are abstract to begin with. The songs sounds good (nice track/melody) but it'll get skipped by most and wont get radio play because of the "gay element":sadbron:

The best song is still "Thinking bout you" and it's like 1 year old:snoop:

ANd finally.....where is whip appeal? :sadcam:

By the way, that song "Fertilizer" is an old James Fauntleroy song. James is a dope writer, maybe as good as or better than Frank. And a great vocalist himself. He just doesnt have the "look" to be a star today. smh

James Fauntleroy - Fertilizer - YouTube

Didn't Frank get aggy when Chris Brown tweeted he thought he was like Fauntleroy & Cossum? Then the C Breezy goons got at Frankie?

kinda ironic.
