It is listed as a double album on Apple music split as 9 tracks each. I'm listening on YouTube music and it's not split like that so idk. Doesn't really matter either way probably

I'm gonna listen to this Kodak Black feature about 10 times and might give the whole album a try if Kendrick's part doesn't put me to sleep.

This ones gonna take some time to digest imo

some of the more conceptual tracks dont work that well to me on first listen but as an album it definitely has something to say

hard to parse imo

musically all over the place

I'm definitely gonna have to listen to it multiple times. Not my favorite album of his in regards to bangers that I'll be jamming out to in the car a lot, but he's clearly got a lot of message to put out with this one.

i liked it. i probably rank it near the middle, where there's almost a 3 way tie with s.80/mr morale/uu for me.

people are gonna react to the auntie song.

i'm kind of mad at we cry together now. it has one of the best beats but is one of his least replayable songs. what a waste.

yeah the song is going to need defense played for it. already seen him called a homophobe.

i get what he was trying to do but I think repeating the f-word excessively sort of undermines the whole message given that it can be a traumatic word to hear for the people the song ostensibly supports

i know thats the point but idk. Maybe could have gone about it differently

He's definitely gonna catch heat for Auntie Diaries but the message is good, and if it was too subtle he kind of states the point plainly at the very end

I need to listen to the rest of the album

Listened to the first half and I enjoyed N95, Worldwide Steppers, Rich Spirit and Father Time. We Cry Together was unexpected but it probably needs listens to be fully appreciated.

That's the last song I heard (been listening in the car) and that was definitely an interesting listen.

Wow that was all over the place. A challenging listen but there is sustenance to be sure.

"We Cry Together" felt like an Eminem song from the beat to the lyrics and the style of the dialogue. "Auntie Diaries" could have afforded a bit more clarity but it has value in the way he challenges himself.
