Some good songs on this. Will give this another listen in a couple of weeks and start filtering them out.

I feel like my critical faculties totally fall away with this guy, like I'm tasked with reviewing a Personality rather than a musician--and a personality I really don't vibe with. This feels like a total simulation of artistic growth/influence-corralling...hard to describe...

The only flaw of riot is its short length, WHAT A JAM

Stand Tall and Redbone will be in heavy rotation for a while on my end.

Stand Tall, Redbone, Me and Your Momma, Baby Blue, Terrified, and Riot are all on constant rotation for me

there are some good tracks on this but a few corny or boring ones too. the stylistic change is refreshing but the execution is imo hit and miss (its sorta like the new bon iver for me in that way, which i also thought was pretty overrated)

feeling kinda the same way, the funkadelic worship is a bit too heavy-handed. Especially with the background vocals on tracks 2-4

I only find the Funkadelic worship to stand out on like 2 tracks.

I'm not a fan of Boogieman or Zombies and Have Some Love feels out of place but other than that nothing but bangers
