    I must've been on a weird space when I first listened to this. Onto playthrough number four and this is hard. I still feel like there are less standout tracks - but then maybe I'm being overly critical comparing this to Magic's opening track but overall it's a exceptionally solid body of work. Needs to be enjoyed in full though instead of individual tracks. The way a good album should be!

    I thought the same thing ngl. It's been some months since I checked out a full body of work though. And I bumped Magic like a mfer, which only had 9 tracks. Maybe that's why the tracks of Magic became so memorable to me.

    I only heard this one 2 times so far though.

    Btw I noticed that Nas sounds better even vocally.
    I think it was KD2 where his vocals sounded a bit raspy. It caught me off-guard.

    I think he should cap it off here and end it on a high note as a trilogy. He could still work with Hit Boy obviously but the next album should also have a different concept and maybe even different producers

    More happy about understanding why LT2 was so trash lol Nasir was average but didn't bother me that much it just sort of came and went

    These two Sony ain't leaving each others hip for a long time. I expect another 3+ projects.

    I’d be in . I think he should stick with hit boy until they drop a mediocre album. The formula they have is working . So why fix something that isn’t broke
