Baby Blue kinda does for me but Stand Tall is such a fantastic closer it's hard to say anything is better

I agree that the album is frontloaded, but The Night Me and Your Mama Met and Stand Tall are such a great way to close out the album for sure.

Yeah, but one at a time. You know, like a fight in a Bruce Lee movie.

I think its highlights are spread out quite well: Me and Your Mama, and Zombies in the first half, Redbone smack in the middle, Terrified, Baby Boy and Stand Tall in the second. Stand Tall does kinda overshadow a fair few songs, though.

Album does feel somewhat inconsistent, though, I guess, and I listen to said highlights more than I run through the album in whole. As much as I like Zombies, California, Riot, etc. Me and Your Mama, Redbone, and Stand Tall are very clearly the best songs on here. Given how they're perfectly spread out over the album, I get the feeling Gambino himself knew this, too.

Stand Tall is one of the weaker tracks for me. I don't see why it's getting all the praise.

idk it doesn't come off as inconsistent to me. Even the weaker songs have great moments (Have Some Love's chorus, the guitars in Zombies, etc.)

Some of the shorter tracks like Riot feel underdeveloped, even if all the songs each have some interesting ideas thrown into them.
