Future - Honest (2014)

feel like honest besides the inconsistent quality is also inconsistent sound/vibe wise it just doesnt hold together that good the production is super varied and theres a shit ton of guest verses that dont really flow (my biggest complaint tbh) the jams are extremely jammy but it just doesnt produce a enveloping cohesive experience like pluto did imho but pluto is like my fav album

also cant really stand futures inspirational success mode which is like .33 of the thing, like i can tell he really feels it which is cool but i do not

read him saying that getting all the celebrity guest verses lined up for this was a huge pain in the ass so maybe hell cut that shit out next time

i think maybe he lost track of himself

yeah Honest is not bad but it's a very anti-climactic album. maybe more in comparison to his post-Pluto guest spots than to Pluto, really. if he'd just kept half the great hooks he gave to other artists in 2013 he could've easily had an incredible album.

I am so about inspirational #YDI Future.

Blood sweat tears got me through a few rough patches

ha honest im glad its apprecaited

I admit I don't listen to honest as an album I just cherrypick

ya shd prob just make a playlist w some features thrown in there

anyone listen to the new mixtape been hearing its terrible

i like it, though it does drag on at times. "throw away" is one of my favorite tracks future's done for a while for the crazy emotional payoff

It's not terrible it's just boring

He doesn't seem to have many good ideas left and his lack of foregrounded personality hurts this

i really think his rapping is a bigger problem than this famous 'personality' issue. like for every solid verse there's one or two that's just embarrassing.

he shdnt rap too much, just act like hes his own feature rapper

this album is kinda underrated but it def feels like he missed his moment

"honest" might be his best single tho and "i be u" his best ballad

those are the two that resonate w me too

i'll agree with those two as stand outs
i warmed to benz freindz and my momma
move that dope is a great track of course but it was out so far ahead of the album i don't associate it with honest
and the big rube speaks cut is a great nod
and i don't come back to anything else

quick spotify look to see what held up on pluto (and honestly almost everything does) brought up this

Due diligence for eoy stuff made me check this out tonight. Having the first track built on a sample of the song Amadou and Mariam did with Santigold three years ago was a fine howdy do.

and there's no relationship between personality and rapping?

There are some jams on Monster.

i'm just saying i think "wow this is a shitty rap verse" when i'm listening to Monster or Honest more often than i think "this verse is good but who is Future really what a poorly realized persona"

monster sounds better and better the more i listen 2it

56 nights kills

yup

you think we can't get in computers???!?

i never hear anyone play anything good/relevant and ive hears this coming out of passing cars twice in 3 days

i hear "fuck up some commas" playing from a car at the traffic light outside my house at least once every two days for about three weeks
i am pretty sure it's not the same car
i may be wrong

THIS BEAT FROM AUSTRALIAN AND IM AN ALIEN

56 nights is my fav ep of all-time probably

man y'all got me excited to hear 56 Nights and it's kinda disappointing imo. too much migos flow not enough crooning.

trap niqqas is a jam, tho

rappers use 'rock star' so much but ive caught the 56 nights video now a few times on mtv jams and future is so rock star iconic in it i cant even

hes on such a roll right now, v beautiful

longreads or whatever

lol

I love this track, nice balance of the 56 Nights style bangers with his nakedly emotional side/

otm

yea this is dope, i was literally gonna post this today

feel like we need a separate future thread for everything post-honest

56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER

So is there a new Future album coming out?

dirty sprite 2

available for preorder on itunes brand music store

Yikes; terrible name. And that's a full, physical release album? Is there even a single? Seems like this is being set up to tank

yeah who knows what an album is even these days def kinda weird to claim a part 2 of a mixtape is an album

on the other hand u cld take the best songs from 56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER maybe master them up a lil and have a great album
