That second verse man, I hate hearing verses that sound like they were written in 2 minutes, and that's definitely one of those. I'm not asking for Lupe Fiasco level entendres and patterns and ish, but at least show some effort, shyt sounds like Nore wrote it. I'm surprised you didn't like "Bonjour", shyt is clean. Bonjour and Adam and Eve are probably the only 2 songs that I'll listen to from this album moving forward, rest of that shyt aint really my twist, and I really tried to force myself to like them, lol.

There will always be critcism cuz he's the GOAT lyricist. With this album you can tell that this got cooked up within the last month lol
The meal wasn't even finished on the release date
I'm eager to hear the actual album he's been working on for the past several years.
who killin it?
the fakes get exposed
shyt was good
Daytona spoiled us all tho

It's highlighted more now since this album only has 7 songs. There were madd instances of the flow being shaky on LIG too, I never liked "Bye Bye Baby" for that reason.

Bye Baby was the only song like that really. Especially to a noticable level.
shyt was a little shaky here and there on A Queens Story too
Yeah, I think we all thought that all of these shorter projects would be just as cohesive as DAYTONA was, but it's clear everybody didn't work as closely as Pusha did with Ye to get his shyt perfected. The other projects are good, just not as precise as DAYTONA is, but I'll take it. I think Teyana's album is going to be dope af
I didn't like none of them joints either,shyt was weaknas album done walk thru with future and that song with Travis Scott are better that every song on here imo
Just here to report that I got attacked/negged by the Nas Stan Fundamentalists on here the night of the listening party for saying this same shyt despite the fact that nas is my favorite MC. A lot of people don't want to face facts. It's nothing special and I hold LIG in higher regard . Sorry again for unvarnished truth stanleys

This is the 1st Nas album I don’t want to revisit. I’m used to his albums having a theme(HHID, Untitled, & Life is Good) and you know actually being good. This shyt is mediocre and his stanbase is propping up as great. It’s not

Nas ain't built for the EP-type format. Seems like Nasir ended just as he was starting to warmup. It worked for Pusha because he deals with one topic (the drug game and all its ramifications) and with the 7 song format he gets his point across then it ends just before it gets redundant. Nas meanwhile deals with multiple topics and themes that 7 songs can't cover in a satisfying way. Obviously Nas pulled off the short album/multiple theme thing with Illmatic but he's no longer on that level skillwise and creatively where he could do that again
Daytona felt like a short film with a beginning, middle and end. Nasir felt like the first act of a feature film. I liked it, but for it to be his first project in 6 years it felt underwhelming.
