    I'm happy that music releases are finally starting to pick up steam again! Also even if I don't enjoy this song as much as I would've liked I might need to hear it within the album or within a certain mood/headspace for a greater appreciation

    Bad look for that tde account. You gotta be above that type of s---. Act like it’s not on your radar. Fantano is big I guess, but you just gotta ignore that stuff. I’m not a rapper tho so...

    One critique I see about this album is that the features stand out the most, while zay ussualy blends into the track. I think this is done on purpose and works incredibly. Zay sets the atmosphere on every song, while the feature artists are intended to be the highlight of the track. Artists are not featured for the sake of it. Reminds me of a Travis Scott album in that aspect.

    Long story short this is an album for the vibers.

    While I think Fantano is a pretty good reviewer most of the time, he has a really specific taste in rap music. His rap reviews on artists he doesn't like or understand can come off as disrespectful. He also has the worst fan base of all time.

    This is an EXTREMELY chill album so if you're cool with vibey music i'd check it out

    However if you've never listened to Isaiah before I would listen to his other albums first

    @Ordinary Joel Do you agree with my take?

    This is such a f---ing great return for Zay. wasn't sure what to expect when the singles dropped but Lay Wit Ya and Headshots are right up with my favorite songs of the year. TThe whole album is so beautifully cohesive and hazy like his previous 2 but somehow he sounds slightly more enegrized, refuelled after such a long hiatus. RIP Young, From the Garden, Score, Chad, True Story and the last 2 songs are all such huge highlights. Havent stopped hitting repeat since it dropped

    Thoughts? I personally never fully watched a Anthony Fantano review but maybe some of you have more clue of how valid his opinions are lol

    Darkside Gone- Great opener. Loved Kendricks verse on this, always been one of my favs.

    From the Garden- first time I’ve ever heard Uzi. Beat saves this song, it slaps, but lyrics do nothing for me. I like though. I like. Production is more important for me anyway.

    RIP Young- Good slow song, gets me kinda horny. RIP Mac Miller. Album is good so far.

    Lay Wit it- Grew on me. Sly beat and sample. I skip Dueces verse. Terrible flow and he’s off beat.

    Claymore- Remind me of COD4. Mid track. Kinda boring but I like the tropical vibes and the chick.

    Cumshots- Reminds me of Suns Tirade. Arguably the best song on the album.

    All Herb- ehh not really feeling it, plus I’m anti-marijuana

    Hey Mistah- 2nd half of this song is fire.

    True Story- J Roc kills it. Rest is ok.

    Wat u sed- Skiiiiiip

    Don’t Shhot- it’s ok at best. Feel like I’ve heard this same song multiple times already.

    Chad- SKIIIIIIIIIP

    9-3- ok every song is like a minute now. Cool but worthless…

    Score- Skip

    THICC- good. Getting bored.

    HB2U- Skiperoo

    6/10 album
