What’s better than those?


V6 was ill too, city of sin was crazy.

Are we talking stricly mixtapes?Then HH4 is definitely better. The first PLK was better too. Banks’ flow on the first HH was incredible too. Banks has so many more mixtapes better than that FNO series. Im not gonna front like i dont know songs word for word on those tapes too but it’s definitely not the best Banks mixtapes.

You guys focus too much on beats, feats and production. My focus is on the actual words Banks says.

There's a different between doing multis for the sake of it and doing it and it sounds good/makes sense

Resources is one of the best songs he's released since he dropped the last AON

Yall killing me with this AON love. This is not factual. He’s released a bunch of tapes/tracks better than the stuff of AON tapes.

I’ve already explained all this in previous posts. And one other thing is this is still music so obviously beats are going to be talked about. I’ve explained everything literally that you’ve mentioned in ur post so I’ll leave it at that

What do you mean it’s not factual? :heh:

This is opinion based. This has been discussed here before and as he said FNO, AON, CC2 were the best in HIS opinion. I think this was also the majority view on the coli with a few mentions of V6 or others. This is my opinion as well but the HH series was good, especially HH4.

As far as focusing too much on beats that’s your ears but I am not just listening to rap or any music for that matter just for lyrics alone. The better the music the better the project.

I am not in agreement that he needs to work with one producer because the aforementioned projects have multiple producers and they were great.

This album is better than COTI 1 or 2. Solely off Production and beats. I said it. shyt matters. This music, not spoken word :manny:

Hope he continues this for the next AON.
My conclusion on recent banks projects is

These are my top 3 as of now

1. Coti 3 best overall album

2. Halloween havoc 5 hardest tape and mixed great and overall great sound and a classic banks tape. Only time will tell if this is actually number 1 for me. This one’s on repeat right now it’s just too early to say right away since coti 3 is ill af too.

3. Coti 1 best highs and probably has more of my favorite tracks but also has lows like “food ft styles p” which sounds cheap, and a handful other tracks where the beats aren’t great but banks still kills them but I don’t replay em because of the mid production, and as a whole the albums not mixed great and not cohesive.
