shyt started off good but definitely lost momentum. These hooks are terrible. A lot of features too... but goddamn some of these hooks are like :skip:

On first listen it's ok.

I mentioned in this thread before, his music is hit and miss for me. I think what saves Troy Ave a lot of the time is his great ear for beats. He knew EXACTLY what beat to pick for Camron, it reminded me of the Come Home With Me Intro. The track with Kiss and Fab and me :whoo: when Fab came on.

He does his thing with the melodies, a lot of the hooks are corny but he makes them listenable.

I agree with FreshAIG when he said
he has no personality, no real story. His whole thing is he sold drugs and fukks bytches. That's cool but what else?
His best verse is the song with Lito cause he shows a lil depth. You can tell he doesn't write his verses but he should. 50 washed him with 8 bars on his own song.

I do like Taste of Revenge. Fake Butt Busta is an important theme but I ain't trying to hear that shyt as a man.

The song with ASAP Ferg is fukking stupid also.

6/10

I also think New York City was the better album. Maybe because I had low expectations and it had me like :leon:

For this album I was hoping for the same reaction. It's not bad but only a couple songs I'm replaying

Have one of your singles named after a euphemism for "shyt" brehs.
