I think Bandana flows better as an album but Piñata had more standout songs.
Disappointed this isn't more like Piñata
It's comedy. Gibbs just did an interview for 92.3 and the host told him black got him on extradite, but he he got black on this one. Gibbs said he got redemption .......but yea I thought black got extradite clearly, but education is much closer. My opinion on it changes by the day. They both brought their own flavor to it. Black droppin grown man bars. Gibbs straight flexing. They blacked out.No doubt Black was ILL as hell, but to say Gibbs got murdered is a stretch. His lines went more under the radar. They attacked the track differently but both rode the beat exceptionally well.

So now after sitting and listening to the album on repeat for almost a week now I feel like I can finally expresd my right opinion about the album.
At first listen I thought it was dope and close to Pinata but not quite on the same level for some reason but after listening to it over and over I feel like Bandana got overall more replay value honestly.
Pinata got some songs that still beat most songs on Bandana. But bandana sounds far more cohesive and better as an album to listen to from start to finish.
I feel like Madlib stepped it up with the production as the beats were more creative and versatile to me. I also really like that Bandana has less features so we can hear more of Freddie in this project and he really shines throughout it.
Overall I'd rate the album a 9/10 and is by far the best rap album to come out this year so far.
Yea, got a shipping notice last Wednesday/Thursday
I think Bandana flows better as an album but Piñata had more standout songs. Really dope project. Wish more people I knew in real life were checking for this.
C/S. It sounds like Bandana was worked on with the two in the studio and thought of as a whole project. Pinata sounds more like emailed collaboration with some tracks that came out really strong but less cohesive as a whole.
