Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Off

this album is basically just



nate: yo check it



groggs: hUmBlE aS a MuMbLe iN tHe JuNgLe, yA dIg??



*fire guest verse*



and yet it's still a 4

Album Rating: 3.5

checked a bit off of it, feeling a 3.5 so far. But there's def some bangers

Downgrade from Floss in pretty much every way, but still really fun.
I think there's a little too much filler.

3 songs in and this is already beatin floss the fuck down

opener is sick

Album Rating: 4.0

Agreed that this is a clear downgrade from Floss and especially Dentist Office and I’m sort of dumbfounded that the majority of people seem so head over heels for it. Like I wanna love this so badly but I have so many issues with it.

“hUmBlE aS a MuMbLe iN tHe JuNgLe, yA dIg??”



I’m surprised I needed to read this typed out to realize it’s an OutKast reference, especially considering Groggs starts two verses within like five songs with it

yea you corny so I'd see why you'd like floss over this but this sheds any corn juice the group had on em completely

You say that as if “New Hawaii” isn’t the corniest shit they’ve ever done lmao

This is their best work, I reckon -- dudes manage to entertain all these scatter-brained ideas and still come out with something... cohesive. Also, is 100 per cent corny, whole album is.

New Hawaii slander? Yikes.

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah, that's fair, curious to see how I feel about this in a few months, don't listen to Dentist's Office much anymore.

Album Rating: 4.0

I don’t find this cohesive at all really, and I think it feels far more like a mixtape than Dentist Office or Floss ever did. Those two tapes didn’t have skits like “QWERTY interlude” and “Hello?!” and gimmicks like “rap song tutorial” bogging it down. “GTFU” and “New Hawaii” might be my two least favorite songs they’ve ever done.



I also felt like there are way too many features, which is a problem here because they always have to have either Ritchie or (mostly) Groggs sit out the song instead of just having a longer song with an extra verse.

really? I liked Floss but the second half is sooooo mediocre aside from the closer imo. This is really consistently good, maybe might even better than LFTDO but I haven't spun that in a while

Thank you for validating my intense hatred of GTFU.

“doesn't save the fact that these guys have for their whole career (this not withstanding) lacked a certain SOMETHING to give their tapes any semblance of lasting power”



Disagree hard. They’re my most scrobbled hip hop artist aside from Earl (who dropped a 15 track/25 minute album recently) over the last six months.

Yeah, Floss is a a jam and goddamn half all the way through for me. I really dig Dentist Office and Drive it like it's Stolen too. Gotta check this soon.

"Those two tapes didn’t have skits like “QWERTY interlude” and “Hello?!” and gimmicks like “rap song tutorial” bogging it down." -- Would argue those are what lend to the album's cohesion: QWERTY Interlude bridges the semi-serious fronting on GTFU and the comedic fronting on Jailbreak the Tesla. Would be awkward as hell without it, IMO. Likewise, Rap Song Tutorial makes the shift between the goofy front-half and """serious""" back-half far less jarring than it should be. I dunno -- if you don't feel that, it definitely shows some kinda failure, but I think for what it's worth the intent's there (and I think succeeds in spite of an attempt to ""intellectualise"" the album).



There is, defnitely, this awkward tension in the whole "jazz-rap/spaz-rap" thing, one that's sometimes obvious in the differences in Groggs' and Ritches' delivery, but I think the production (and structure of the album) accomodates it super well.
