Sorry, that's another B
If they flooded this project with drill beats people wouldve bashed that and said and complain about everything sounding the same. You can't win with y'all man. The deluxe was well balanced and showed diversityFelt like they didn't do justice to him at all with the last version with all the pop trap they packed that project with instead of hard-hitting, grimey drill music.
A few tracks into this deluxe version they already put more drill track on here than like the entirety of the original one but then the RNBish pop trap tracks started to creep in again and took over.
Should have just let 808 Melo and other drill producers make a whole drill project like Meet the Woo, there was no need for this watered-down pop shyt and inviting RNB singers to every second track. This could have been so much better, could have gone so hard if they go into a different direction with it. The atmosphere of the first mixtape or even the second is nowhere to be found except a handful of tracks.
He had tracks like Scenario and Hawk Em on his first mixtape and when he dies they put this soft ass shyt under his rapping

all that drill sh*t he was doing wasn't gonna get him far. He knew that himself, that's why Pop started appealing to the masses, just like 50, he knew where the money was at and for someone like me that isn't into drill at all, i f*cks with him heavy because of the way the album was made. I'ma check out the deluxe which i think they should've saved for the next project.

50 Cent's music always had a nasty edge to it even at his peak of fame. GRODT mostly still goes hard despite it being mainstream, there are no RNB tracks at every second corner there.
I don't think that Pop Smoke was about to release albums that sound like these, I think the sound would have been heavier even if it would have been more mainstream sounding than the first Meet the Woo (something like the second I guess which was kind of a healthy mix even though I prefer the first).
But that's just shoulda woulda coulda talk now, it is what it is, we got what we got, I'm just saying they didn't do justice to him imo

I see your point but I disagree on it being a healthy mix, it moved way too much in the direction of pop trap/RnB to me, I like the first Meet the Woo the best obviously but I'd call the second one a "healthy mix" if anything. I could hear it was more mainstream sounding but I wasn't bothered by it, it was well balanced.
