Listened once and never went back..same with the one before this. He won't ever come close to matching the tape.

Rocky just never had that much staying power to begin with. He is what some on here like to call a flash in the pan.

No hate either, just my real opinion on him. This isn't some sort of newfound revelation either, people were saying that before his debut came out.

The whole Clams Casino/ Cloud rap sound never really took root.

This is exactly why I dug him originally. I simply liked the beats he'd choose. Then I got into him more and more as an overall artist. He knows how to put together a cohesive project. Whatever direction he takes his music, he does so in a thorough fashion. I like this new album. A little long but still dope.

And I still love the cloud rap/dreamscape type vibes. Wish more artists would spit over these types of beats.

I'll continue to support.

I'm not surprised he dropped a dud. Just kind of surprised he wait so long since his last album to do so...

He'll be alright though, he'll still be in that 2nd tier of rappers like Big Sean and Meek Mill

I skimmed through it, haven't given it a full listen yet. I will say though, I don't think it's connecting with his fanbase. I saw Rocky at the Roots Picnic over the weekend. Most of his set were songs from ALLA and the crowd was :dwillhuh: during every new song, no reaction whatsoever. then when he finally ended his set with Peso the crowd was :krs:

he did mention it was his first time performing ALLA but normally you'll see some kind of reaction from a crowd even if its their first time hearing a song. but the crowd was absolutely dead
