Double back for what? Gibbs last album outsold Jeezy's. Gibbs only saying that shyt cause he's more successful now than ever

Who's saying anything about money or sales? And even if we were talking that, let's not act like Kane been doing Future #s or some shyt. He doing his thing for an Indie act (well he's signed now), but he'll never see the peak of a Jeezy.

But anyways, I was more so talking about artistically/musically cuz clearly Freddie idolized him, and I believe Jeezy actually at one point looked at him like a little brother.

They made some fye ass tracks and it would eb cool if we could get some more is all.

My first impression;



Beat selection is great...I'm still not used to him with a bunch of different producer because of his AL and Lib albums

That's da thing, A LOT of folks only started to listen to him around that time. Before either of those albums, he has always worked with a variety of producers.

That's a Jill. Scott sample from the love thirst track on CIA? I've only had a chance for a quick run through looks like kane came through again... This man been holding me down ten plus years I can't wait to listen to this properly

His best tracks in my opinion is when he’s rapping on a subject

This is one of the better rap albums to come out in the last year or so.

I still prefer Gibbs on trap beats or hard beats.

I know Face is his favorite rapper, but wish he gave him a better beat. Face is my favorite artist too and even I couldn't get down on that song. Beat just felt weird.

Gibbs quietly putting together a great catalog.

He was talking on grandmas stove.
I like when folks give you a little insight on them between their rhymes.

The song wit dj Paul is fye too.

I like this album. Just like majority of Freddie work… you can vibe to it or digest what’s being said in his lines. It’s coo. Not many can give you options with their work and it doesn’t feel purposely done.

Album would be better without certain features

For instance the song with offset could have been a ten if it had a second gibbs verse
