    About what I expected. Pretty disappointing to be honest. Probably about 4-5 good to great tracks and the rest is recyclable trash unfortunately. Anyone who calls this Special Effects 2.0 is deaf. Hands down his worst produced solo effort. Hands down his worst guest feature selection on any of his albums. One of the main issues is so many of the songs sound so similar I couldn't tell the difference it all kind of sounds the same.. Seven uses that cheapo "beeping or bobbing" sounds if you know what I mean in a lot of the tracks. It makes the production sound cheesy. There is also no cohesiveness to the album, just random tracks about wifi, srachi sauce, nonsense rapping, no good chopper song, with a few great tracks sprinkled in. Saffron is horrible, and this album once again follows in the footsteps of strangeulation Vol 2 as having some of the worst hooks that have ever blessed my ears.
    Need Jesus stands out on the first 3 listens. JL Had an excellent verse.

    You guys know I love tech and strange music I'm just disappointed in their last few albums and don't agree with the direction strange is going. Tech still has it in him to make good music (he still does, just very rarely).

    respect your opinion but I honestly couldn't disagree more. There's a lot of diversity in these songs and I don't find almost any of them poorly produced. There's a lot of great stuff here and I'm gonna be f---in with this album for a while :blunt:

    Not even halfway through the album and this album has more solo tracks by Tech than most of the albums he's released in the last 10 years.

    What song does "the needle" sample? I know I've heard it a million times but I can't think of it.

    On my first listen now.....just finished need Jesus. Song is dope but the beat could really use another instrument or two. It's sounds like a skeleton beat.

    Haha oh my god this!!! I was listening to the album this morning at the gym and I KNOW this beat! It's one of those things that has been bothering me all day and I can't for the life of me think of the sample!! When I hear it, it's gonna be an epiphany! Ha someone tell us ASAP please Edit: I found it! At least I found another song that I listen to frequently that uses the same sample! I don't know the exact sample (I could just google it lol) but the song is from Apathy's newest album, Handshakes with Snakes, and the song is Moses- Featuring Bun B and Twista. Dope f---ing track look it up

    Just finished til I'm gone and on first listen through that would be my favorite so far. Best songs are the ones with broads on the hook. Better than Strangulation 1 & 2 but holy s--- this is so far the worst produced tech solo album I've ever heard.
