2018 was a great year for alternative hip hop, but this was mostly derivative. It's not about being contrarian it's about being disappointed that this didnt live up to my expectations of him.

I get that. Probably a key factor that separates our opinions on this is just the fact that I'm very production focal when I listen to hip-hop, and I've listened to so much that I'm really critical when I hear new stuff and it sounds too familiar. I get bored with beats v easily if I feel the sounds, techniques, and samples are derivitive

i see this less as earl trying to be unique and more an ode to his stylistic inspirations (knwxledge, flylo, etc)

Him being off radar for three years is exactly why this is expected to be better

I swear with this album in particular criticisms just aren’t approved of for some reason

All I seem to see is people either saying it’s a mess but they like it, or sayin that the general consensus likes it so it must be good. Those aren’t reasons tho. If it’s a feeling I’m not feeling it lol.
