    Talking 'bout a face coming off a bag a blow" :dead3:

    man the more i listen to this album the more i f---ing love it.

    it's still got it's issues which leads me to believe it'll be a mid project when the dust settles, but it'll be on the higher end.

    abel really did it boys, first studio album from him that i genuinely like

    There's definitely some problems sprinkled throughout the entire record, the production in some verses has trouble matching the addicting synthesizers in the chorus (i.e. "Love To Lay"), and for other tracks--such as "Secrets"--it's vice versa (verses > chorus) but with the shortcomings in the production being substituted by shortcomings in the vocal performance. This balances out some songs as "good, not great", but the album itself is d--- good. Without a doubt, Abel's strongest studio release (Trilogy exempt).

    I doubt this will see heavy rotation in a few years, but it is a definite contender for 2016's AOTY

    This is the only thing I've listened to this weekend. I'm so happy this album turned out good for the most part.
    So much better than BBTM.

    Its funny he has the line God d--- b---- I am not a teen choice, on an album taylor made to win him one.

    I think that guardian review is accurate. he's scared to push the boundaries because of the way Kiss Land was received. I really think the critical reception of that album hurt him.

    Oh well im just going to enjoy this for what it is and continue to bump Trilogy when I need a fix

    I feel like he references a lot of songs he's been featured on lately

    He says "dont stop your lovin, dont stop for nothin" like in FML

    And then "We dont pray for love" on another

    and i feel like he pulls a line from Pullin Up too

    and low life on 6ft under ofc
