Why wasn't Paranoia on here?

Is there a burna boy version/leak out there or did they not let burna get on it at all?

Pop Smoke Ft. Burna Boy – Enjoy Yourself (Drink Freely / Serena) | POWEROFNAIJA | MP4 | INSTRUMENTAL

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Hmmmmm.

This album is just okay but so much of this felt half baked from start to finish whether it’s the nonsense with that trash cover art from Virgil to the equally wack art they finally chose. Why even bother have 50 post a bunch of fan submissions to chose what they chose?

The production on this shows that these UK beats are already stale as fukk and not even Pop could’ve given it steam outside of this year.

Seems like they cobbled up whatever material Pop left behind and threw this together. Most of the songs are wayyyyyyyyyyy too short and why not just take two separate verses and make one song instead of stretching out the track list. The structure of most of these songs felt weak and barebones, with no real bridges or pre choruses to flesh the tracks out.

Just feels like there needed to be a higher caliber individual looking over these songs. Kinda shocked that 50 didn’t do more with this.

I don't know if it's me but this shyt don't sound mixed right. It's like the same engineer who mixed Meet The woo 2 couldn't have done this, not most of it.

808 Melo had like 3 beats and Yamaica had one. And even those beats like Creature sounded more polished/mainstream than Pop dark OG drill sound. The rest was R&B sampled and Spanish guitar pop mainstream shyt so I don’t get this point.

The criticism is retarded

Some bytch was on Twitter talking about why Rah Swish and Smoove L and Bobby Shmurda aren’t on it

Apparently that’s what Pop would have wanted

It’s like they completely ignored Pop’s level up and ascension and the actual ambitions he had for his career

 

[ManBearPig]

Super commercial sound

lmfao exactly, nikka was talking about how he was gonna level up and surprise people with a new sound, he literally told angie that his album was gonna sound different than what we're used to and theyre mad that it's not a drill record with fukking features from nikkas like dafi woo curly savv and rah swish

meanwhile fivio and sheff g on instagram telling people shut the fukk up and be patient about their collabs

 

[The War Report]

Album trash.
