Though he has the privilege to work with "the coolest DJ in the world" for the fuller follow-up 56 Nights, Future's auto-tuned mushmouth finesse over Zaytoven's production here is refreshingly succinct, smooth, natural - all that's usually needed for a hit is a sparse piano+handclap-driven beat and a dominating phrase/song title, and for nine tracks / less than a half-hour, you have your choice of 'em. And his delivery is constantly so lethargic+understated that even when he "puts Moet on that pussy" or is "living off a key trying to dodge prison", it almost sounds pensive - more like jarring glimpses of his reality rather than mindless braggadocio.

Compared to his LPs this obviously benefits from being a lot shorter, and yet I can't help but feel that this is hardly more than 'alright'. There isn't a single clear cut jam really, because there is a core flaw on pretty much every single track. 1's merely alright with a couple good bits here and there maybe but with a fadeout ending. On 2 the vox is cool but the instrumental isn't super convincing and like the first track it feels a bit awkward for the most part, while on 3 things are flipped and the vocals are the element to blame. 4 is perhaps one of the most successful tracks here, with a relatively soft and aerial instrumental and fine delivery from our main man. 5 is more restrained and kinda cool in that vibe. The thing is, Future's delivery and the trap drums offer a contrast to smooth instrumentals which is a fun idea to explore over a track or two, but that gets old quickly if you do it four times in a row. So when 6 keeps this incongruous aspect, it doesn't really work and the track gets annoying. Same applies to 7 although it works a bit better with its jazzy instrumental. 8 finally comes back to a congruous vibe and is perhaps the other best track here, except it sounds like he was rapping it with his jaw anaesthetised for three quarters of the song. This EP is Future showing great potential, but not realising it. Maybe I am being a bit too harsh because this is fine especially 1,4,5,7,8, so I might jam it again, but for now 2.6
