Haven’t listened to a full Wale project in ages. It’s cool. Mostly an album you’d play with a woman on your 5th date or something. I kept Tiffany Nikes, Beverley Blvd, New Balances, Down South, and Caramel.

This shyt slap so fukking hard.. Wale is killing these remixed beats. Album waaaay better than Shine, WTC and The Gifted.

I like the production thus far I’m not a fan of Wale’s voice in general. I’ll have to listen to this a few times to get highlights.

Id this a mixtape? Why is he using everyone else’s beats? I’m on the Vivrant Thing track.

Fluctuate is good

Weirdo

ppl sleeping hard on this album

He is the Kyrie Irving of rap. I can’t think of a better hoops-to-rap comparison. He is as skilled a rapper as there has ever been but as soon as his name is mentioned eyes roll because of his personality. I believe his heart is in the right place most times but something about him people just can’t stand.

But if we’re just talking rap skills, dude has tier 1 talent

A song like “88” or “New Balances” can’t be duplicated by 99% of rappers.

"88" is such a good song!!!

nikkas dont like the song with Chris Brown?... he flowing like water on that “I need a girl remixed beat”

Diddy “Im internationally known on the microphone”…

Wale paying homage “Internationally known on the microphone”

nikka bringing life to old songs, paying homage and slaying these tracks with dope lyrics and top tier flow, yet nikkas hate? Lol

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

Opener got a nice sample on it. I see you Folarin

Lets see what the rest is like.


EDIT:
Tiffany Nikes
Caramel
Rozay on Light Years with that luxurious MMG beat
Dearly Beloved
More Love
Jump In
Fire & Ice

When he does his R&B and Slow Jam shyt. He's unstoppable. 10-out-of-10 shyt.

When he's chasing hits, he barely cracks a 6/10. Its so frustrating.

 

[Xtraz2]

this is

ambition was his best album
