Albums Yasiin Bey & Ferrari Sheppard - Dec 99th (Out on TIDAL)

[I love Latina women]

I just skimmed through each song real quickly but I ain't feeling what I'm hearing and I been a fan of all his previous albums

I know skimming through shyt ain't really listening to it (I was just anxious to hear it) but none of the songs stand out to me. He just sounds like he going through the motions and again, I really liked the albums that many fans of Black On Both Sides era Mos didn't. I like both The New Danger and True Magic. But this just sounds lazy and uninspired to me.

I'll listen to it when I have the time though.

Y'all making me not want to listen saying it sounds like a cudi album. All I want from mos is bars.

 

[I love Latina women]

Are there any bars?

I skimmed it but mostly singing from what I heard.

Nbs i previewed them and it sounds like a cudi album were my exact words. But lowkey Mos been on this shyt way before cudi but atleast he gave us variety with bars

MIRROR: Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) – Dec 99th

 

[OfTheCross]

Listening now... The beat on the first song definitely sounds like early Cudi

 

[Lord Mecca]

Been waiting for this shyt... let's go Mos

 

[Deltron]

This is a pretty quick album, felt like an EP more than an album. After one listen, not too bad. Was never really bothered by Mos' singing...but am looking forward to the other albums he plans to drop.

Heri is dope

 

[OfTheCross]

Eh.. This isn't for me really...It's good background music but I wouldn't actively listen to any of the songs so far

 

[Ziggiy]

Are there any bars?

One joint has kind of a spoken word thing going on but no real bars.

Again best thing I can compare it to is early Cudi before he fell off. It's a good "alternative" type album. The last two joints are fire

 

[SirBiatch]

Mos Def shouldn't be singing under any circumstance. Umi Says was a fluke and even his singing teetered on the edge of wackness midway through the song. Umi says worked because the beat is spectacular and 'drifting'. So Mos sings a couple words/lines here and there, drifts and it sounds amazing within the first 2 min. But the song starts to wear thin after then.

Leave the singing-over-the-entire-track to singers, please.

Better than wack ass Cudi album for sure. I dunno if it's just me, but I find Mos' singing more tolerable

I'm liking it so far, production is very fitting and onpoint

 

[Moose_Greyjoy]

I like mos singing....have not heard this album yet though
