"true story" is my fav future tape

ya that ones good too

True story is his arrival I guess but same damn time > any song on it

Starting to think Honest > Pluto

good often thrilling record. feels weirdly unfinished for something obviously very fussed over. not as good as pluto probably.

oh jeez the bonus tracks

2nd half > first half

The second half has "I Be U", so yeah.

2nd half gives me more feels so yeah

First half is dope though. There are three things wrong with this album: Pusha, Kanye, Wiz.

read an interview w future where he said hes not having superstar features anymore cause its too much hassle getting everyone to show up and sign off and this album wouldve been out a year ago if it wasnt for them so theres that

True story is his arrival I guess but same damn time > any song on it

or 'gone to the moon'

i will give 'long time comin' the edge over 'runnin through a check although barely

Didn't he once upon a time say Future Hendrix would have no features? lol smh

and then future hendrix never came out

Anyone know who did the "I Be U" beat?

Detail

Such a lazy album cover.

thanks.

Don't get the dislike for the Pusha verse in this thread. a couple parts I can see but as a whole it's straight

there is a real nitpicky element to this thread

ILX? Being nitpicky?

this album has some really incredible moments and i wish it had been tightened up just a little more - feel like i shouldn't have to be cherrypicking from it or gritting my teeth through kanye or pusha

the andré track is actually really unexpectedly great though! "look ahead", "i be u", "special", "side effects" all brilliant. i never thought "sh!t" was more than a minor pleasure but it turns out i forgot what a booming entrance it makes

"look ahead" kinda gives me "power" vibes?? in a good way

the first album was so in the synthed out mike will zone it had a real sense cohesion and culture, this one sounds way more general and cosmopolitan, feels a lil unfocused, lots of samples, a bunch of features from regular ass rappers that dont really fit imo, idk

futures whole voice and mode on this one feels really tuned up too, he was more mellow last time, thats not a judgement tho feelin the new places hes going with his voice

yeah that's kind of what makes its highs so high and its missteps so irritating

xp

mike will only has 3 tracks on this i feel like we might look back on 'honest' as one of the big signals that metro boomin has sort of passed him up as atlanta's hottest rap producer (pop/r&b a diff story)

as much as i love the "Honest" and "The Blanguage" beats, that seems really premature, i don't see it for him like that yet. Mike Will has been kinda sorta shooting blanks for a minute, though.

just:

smoothed out by a T-painian dollop

wait i was sort of conflating metro boomin and dun deal, lol

anyway i think all of the following are hotter than mike will right now as far as pure rap goes

dun deal
metro boomin
808 mafia
london on da track

i can't tell if mike will "fell off" in the lugerian sense or if he's just moved onto a totally different class of rappers

different class of artists**

between dj mustard, detail and those aforementioned producers i've been wondering if mike will is already "over" like 6 months after we all hailed him as music's new kingmaker

6 months is the new lifespan.

ya the producer hype cycle is brutal

I still say that the Move That Dope beat is vicious. Put some other non-song-ruining guests on there (Tip, Kendrick, even Yo Gotti or the Gucci Mane) and the song would have blown up massively. Pusha was the wrong call, Pharrell's verse is dope but weird and Casino, as much as I love him, doesn't help either.

otm was thinking this morning it'd be better even if the chorus was just looped for 2 mins instead of the features

dont like pharells verse neither

or his hat, folks

sidenote since he didn't do the beat but it'd be cool if Pharrell was still good at minimalist beats these days, as opposed to it being the style he's worst at

I think its sequence is all fucked up. I'm trying a HARD SHIT at the front, ATL stuff in the middle, soft serve stuff at the end (and adding "Real and True") and seeing how that treats me

what songs = ATL stuff? i'm sure it's obvious to more educated rap fans, but i'm curious

the Andre 3000 song, for starters. It's his best verse since -- hell, I don't even know.

i guess i thought he meant stuff that was super ATL influenced on the beat? i dunno. even i know where Andre is from

i haven't even heard that song, pulling it up now

wait, is this the "bitches" song they did at Coachella? kinda disliked that one

i dont like the andre song but apparently i'm pretty alone on that

nah it's pretty weak. def. one of the dud post-Idlewild Andre raps too

it's definitely kinda jarring to have Andre 3K show up with by far the most ignorant shit on a supposedly ignorant rapper's album

Don't like that song

is Future supposedly ignorant?

tbh I haven't listened to Andre's words, just the flow. This album is long. "I Be U" was the other standout besides "Move That Dope."
