06.25.18 | I know I left off a lot of fan favourites. I'll prob get flamed for opting for "Infrared" over "Santaria" or "Games We Play", which are also dope af. Hard to compile a short 12-track session from these that flows well. |

06.25.18 | see we had the same idea yours was just a lot shorter lol. nice picks |
Gyromania
06.25.18 | Oh shit you made one too? My b man lol, thought I was the first |
Rowan5215
06.25.18 | in fairness I pretty much just rearranged them in an order I liked, yours is more like an actual album with the 12-song runtime |
Storm In A Teacup
06.25.18 | Im in the process of doing this same thing. I like this one as well. I have No Mistakes opening the Ye 18 album then in Kanye style I have Cops Shot the Kid as the second song which I feel serves as a Stronger or Power type song in the sense of it being polarizing. Then the third is 4th Dimension. |
Sharkattack
06.25.18 | I love that you have cops shot the kid but I hate that you don’t have these are the games we play. |
Storm In A Teacup
06.25.18 | Agreed with Shark. Games We Play is a middle of the album banger on mine |
iglu
06.25.18 | the beat is dope |
Gyromania
06.25.18 | Good stuff guys. Games We Play is indeed a dope ass song. Might add it to this but I enjoy the current tracklist I have |
Hawks
06.25.18 | Pusha’s album is one of the best rap albums I’ve heard in the past few years tbh. Nas’ album is really great too. Gotta hear the others still. |
Switchez
06.25.18 | Hook to Reborn is one of the greatest of the whole series imo |
Gyromania
06.25.18 | I do enjoy that hook, I would probably like it far more if it didn't overuse it tho |
butt.
06.25.18 | "There's also this tendency to overplay hooks ("Reborn")"
But your top song is If You Know You Know? I can't listen to that song anymore because it's sooo damn repetitive. However, your 2 and 3 I'll agree with. 4th Dimension is probably the best song in the series and Bonjour is super underrated |
Gyromania
06.25.18 | It isn't my top song. I never said I was ranking songs, that's just a playlist I threw together of the songs I enjoyed most. Bonjour and 4th dimension are both top 5, if I'm ranking them |
butt.
06.25.18 | Ohh, my misunderstanding.
Still, it's at least as repetitive as Reborn |
JeetJeet
06.25.18 | Give me everything off KSG, every song off Daytona except Hard Piano, and Yikes off Ye. You can keep everything else. |

06.25.18 | Santeria, Infrared, Fire, & Cudi Montage are some of the best songs I've heard this year. |
Gyromania
06.25.18 | Santaria is great, fire and cudi montage are meh tho. |
butt.
06.26.18 | Infrared would be one of my fav songs this year if it weren't for the terribly annoying sample in the background the entire song. "Infrared...yeah...you know what I MEAN?" x200. Ugh I can't stand it |
Gyromania
06.27.18 | I actually like that sample and feel like it isn't prominent enough to get grating throughout. If you removed it itd be pretty dull |
Sharkattack
06.27.18 | Agree with gyro |
RadioheadIsOverrated
06.27.18 | KTSE is far worse than anything else here imo, but other than that I can totally see your picks. I thoroughly enjoyed NASIR, just not as much as my top 3. |
Gyromania
06.27.18 | yea ktse ended up being pretty disappointing on the whole. speaking of disappointing, the meta score for nasir blows ass |
juiceviaorange
06.28.18 | I just got KTSE but the first 4 are excellent. I agree, I don't get the hate for NASIR, the beats are arguably the best out of this whole project |
Gyromania
06.28.18 | glad to see more love for nasir around here. that metacritic score is baffling to me |
Storm In A Teacup
06.28.18 | White Label is fire Fantano is wrong |
Gyromania
06.28.18 | i seldom find myself agreeing with fantano but i like him regardless |
juiceviaorange
06.28.18 | I rarely find myself agreeing with him either, but I do find him entertaining. Loving these 5 albums; such a great lil 36 song mixtape on shuffle. Bangin' shit |
