    Dec 16, 2014


    Gonna be his first major label debut..and that's pretty much all we know rn.

    Not expecting anything to drop till kendrick drops/his hype dies down a bit so we can probably look at a summer/fall 2015 release.

    It's kinda weird that he's calling his debut Longterm 3, and not using this title for a new mixtape or something. Hopefully this will be closer to Control System instead of These Days. I'll watch the interview later, thanks man.

    Longterm 2 was so dope, it's been a long time since that was released.

    Wait, I'm confused... How is this his "debut" if he's released CS and These Days?

    Tbh, I have a theory that it wasn't really even Soulo's fault. I think it was mainly the producers, because if you listen to any TDE release this year, they're making WAY more experimental beats than before. And we all know that TDEs producers are GOAT, but I feel like they we're expecting a "Numbers On The Board" situation where the beats would grow on you. And some did for me, like Dub Sac or even Gangsta by Q, but a lot of it just ended up not sounding good (imo and that's also the general consensus, I'm aware "good" is a subjective term). I feel like by now they know what works and what doesn't, so any future releases are gonna be a badass cross between that signature LA sound and some of the weird s--- we saw with some of Oxymoron and These Days.

    Kind of. But new fans will go back and listen to the other 2. I won't be surprised if it get's a title change though.
