gave this a few listens over the weekend.

its a really good album and very consistent.

but maybe i need to give a few more listens but i think this is missing more standout tracks

overall id give it an 8 the highest.

Can't lie, this is a noticeable step-down from $$$. Freddie has been phoned in for couple projects now lyrically, but it's always been flow/delivery first from Gibbs. The rapping content itself is a more personal than triple S, but the output sounds like one generic uninspired freestyle with lackluster performance. And it's not even because this is a dolo project, because You Only Live 2wice was mostly him solo and was one of his best projects.

Tldr this project is mid and basically filler for Montana (probably next year). SSS >>>>>>> This. Favorite song: It's Your Anniversary

$$$ was too mainstream sounding imo

It was good, but this feels more personal

$$$ mainstream sounding or not was fire with diversified sonics and phenomenal features + placement. Probably would be a top 3 project I'd recommend to a new Gibbs fan. It's as polished as BFK and the visuals were great. You Only Die 1nce is a cool lil project on his f the industry tip but ehhh it's not even close. Just on the pathway to Gibbs–Lib–3.
