My initial thoughts after one spin.

I played it side by side with the version from yesterday just to hear the improvements. Obviously much crisper, 4-7 were the standout tracks, Adam & Eve/Simple Things he was really in his element, I wish there would've been another verse on Simple Things.

I had to modify the start and end time on Everything I actually dont mind Kanye's singing but I changed it to start around 1:50 and end with a 1:25 left or about that much. Puff's adlibs during Nas verse on the intro . Those were my only complaints

Same thing I said yesterday

nothing changed for me between then and now.

4-7 is where it's good. first 3 tracks are clunky

Bruh, you right but where the fukk you at this late on a Friday night listening to anything on headphones

Own a whip with real speakers

Or be in your crib with an adult sound system

I like Tony Williams voice on Bonjour's hook.

I'm going to check out some of dude's music. I like his voice.. Bonjour is one of my favorites on the album too.

Cool, but nobody was talking to you so chill before i knock over your garbage cans and wake your kids up

 

[g-ice]

Okay, now listening to the official version and Bonjour sounds so much better now.

The album overall is fire. My main gripe is that the samples on Cops Shot the Kid and White Label overshadow Nas's vocals severely.

So is this better than Daytona?? If so I'm not sure my body is quite ready yet just getting some drinks in me now bumping this apollo brown joint I'm scared

Nah

 

[Mike the Executioner]

When you're subscribed to Google Play, but not even they're able to handle Kanye's weird album rollouts.

 

[H.S.]

Finally listening to the final version. Nas came through with a dope little project

 

[JoelB]

This album is beautifully done

Top to bottom, c00nye & Nas... salute

 

[S.W.A.G.]

Never sold a record for the beat, it's my verses they purchase
Without production, I'm worthless
But I'm more than the surface
Want me to sound like every song on the Top 40
I'm not for you, you not for me, you bore me

Goat..
