Having listened to it a few times, it's def not as bad as some of y'all were making it out to be :yeshrug:

That said, outside of a few standouts (including the singles) it's pretty decent at best. P has a great voice and delivery which saves it, lyrically it's kind of stuck to the themes which was never his strong suit.

I would say it's a worthy release for the P fan. My bar was significantly lower after I saw the initial reactions though.

this shyt is just P making simp songs :mjlol:

Would u have wanted P to keep making songs about killing nikkas...



Even he admitted that he had to tone it down due to that shyt messing with his brain.


Sometimes you gotta switch it up. I can understand why he was willing to work with newer artists on H.N.I.C 3 as well. Dude wanted to make some fun, happy music.

Yeah I came into this with real low expectations given the replies in this thread but it isn't terrible. P's voice and delivery sound great and that's why I'm here.

Production was mid on some songs but there are some real standouts like the Scratch and Premier joints.

I'll definitely listen to it a few more times.

I loved that Scratch beat. But yeah, this album was, by design, gonna be off brand. A P album about girls and drugs had big time potential to go off the rails. This feels like another attempt at HNIC 3.
