    The only really horrendous track is My Love. i deleted that straight away, the rest is actually very good imo.
    then again, I have been a Hopsin fan since '12

    Fort Collins and No f---s Given are the only two songs worth keeping

    Please don't listen to the whole thing, I don't want to see a friend suffer

    It's his own fault

    He lost his buzz when he took 14132421 years to release Knock Madness

    Imma review each track unbiased and tell you what I think like I did with FWA...
    1. The Pound (Intro)- 9/10
    2. Forever III- 5.5/10 ( Hook kills it from having momentum)
    3. No Hope- 7/10
    4. Ramona- 5/10
    5. Mr. Jones- 9/10 (Best Track, hate on Hopsin, but you can't deny it slaps)
    6. Fort Collins- 7.5/10
    7. No Words (Skit)- 4/10 (But Funny)
    8. Crown Me- 6/10
    9. Ill Mind Of Hopsin 7- 9/10 (Lazy Tracklist choice, but great song regardless)
    10. FV Until I Die- 8/10
    11. My Love- 3/10 (Eww)
    12. No f---s Given- 8/10
    13. FLY- 7/10 (Verses are good, Hook is wack af)
    14. I Just Can't-5/10 (Wtf is this...I Just Can't, pun intended)
    Overall this album is a light 6.
    Best Tracks: Mr. Jones, I'll Mind 7 and Fort Collins
    Worst track: My Love...Cornier then Knock Madness.

    At least he can rhyme well. I don't find him corny really, plus, corny isn't always bad. At least he's not rapping about trap s---.

    Anywho, I enjoyed the CD. Each to their own. :)

    I like Hopsin. He just needs to work on delivery (Very corny at times) and production. I've heard he's only ever used FL studio for beats. Might be a good time to try a different program. Work with different producers. I would love to hear Hopsin rap over some Kanye production. Maybe if he worked with some of the producers from TDE. Dre would be cool. Production is what really kills it for me. Also, marketing is a big thing and his album covers are AWFUL. They look like a hip hop album cover from 1995. Unprofessional. An album cover should be interesting. It should make me pick up the CD or click on the iTunes link just because the cover looks cool, before I even know who the artist is. None of Hopsin's covers are all that great, and your look/image DOES matter. I should get an idea of what the albums like based on the cover. It should represent something. Have some meaning. Or at the very least, it should just look really dope. You gotta draw people in Hop. So really he needs
    1. Better production. Work with new producers.
    2. Better Album art/marketing
    3. Work on the delivery. No more poo jokes. Enough of the corny s---. Hopsin has a lot of talent but the camp factor that comes with his music brings him down.
    As for the album, I've been skimming through it and it's not so bad. Just average really.

    Couple things...
    1. I agree with you 100℅, but Mr. Jones was a great beat. He should make more like that.
    2. The cover wasn't too bad...look up Joell Ortiz's "House Slippers" for a god awful cover.

    Corny for me would be the chorus for "FLY", great verses but that hook sucks, he needed a female for that hook.

    Even with that being arguably best song on the album, the song being about apologizing for leaving a concert or whatever was just, for lack of a better word, corny. Dizzy had the best verse on the album imo tho

    Yeah Dizzy is the one artist on FV that normally impresses. Hopefully we'll get another album late this year or early next year from him
