No standouts.

Wild analogy but Group Home showed with Livin Proof, that even if the rapping is basic, as long as the beats are FIRE you good.

They need a really good executive producer to mold a vision for them.

I feel thats whats missing, and this is what someone like Travis Scott does well even though he has a fraction of the talent

Exactly! Not asking for some masterpiece shyt just curate something that sounds like you actually put effort into it.

This shyt sound like they took Percs, smoked and said fukk it:manny:

Album is super mid.

Production felt very safe, lyrics were iite, it’s cool I guess.

shyt sounded like leftovers from Takeoff’s & Quavo’s solo albums

Nothing outstanding but nothing flat out bad either. They need to go another route with the production, but after while all the beats start to run together no matter if it’s DJ Durrell, Murda Beatz, Budda Bless, etc. The first two tracks off of Culture III and that Cardi single were better than every other song on this album. It’s a handful I’ll still keep in rotation though. Zero complaints about the rapping. Dudes can really go, even if they’re just rapping about basic stuff.

Idk man. Was highly anticipating this and gave it a spin on road and surprisingly to me only 1 track stood out. I'ma run it again in a lil bit tho

💯 to all of you...

It's good. This isn't a "great" tape or anything close to classic. It's listenable and has a few strong tracks, maybe spin it a few more times but the cats in here talking as if this is a masterpiece are tripped out...

I like it. It's not a masterpiece, though the cover is fire...

True. I was hoping it would be on the level of culture 3. Gave it another spin and i have a better opinion on it but that's mainly Kuz of the drops before they released the album

Not bad but the mixing sounds bad. Or at least it does in my car.

Compared to that new Roddy rich single win in sounds immaculate in the car.

I been a Migos fan since the beginning and was really looking forward to this project. I seem to be in the minority to say on first listen this was hella mid to me. Kinda disappointed. Tony Starks is flames though. Going to give it another spin soon just to make sure it wasn’t just my personal mood at the time.

Migos got lucky with culture but let’s be honest they were never really supposed to stay relevant as long as they did. Didn’t even bother listening this time around because I knew it would sound washed
