56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER

ehh i'm ok with fish out of water but there's a whole tradition of these fish out of water pieces that primarily reify existing stereotypes imo

the one with "march madness" & "trap n*ggas"?

i like the production on 56 Nights, but Southside is not the most versatile producer and it kinda feels like they go back to the "Commas" well a lot. Zay has a much wider range of styles on Beast Mode.

idk some of those beats are pretty memorable to me and the sound uniquely fits the subject matter, plus with it only being 9 songs it feels more like a specific palette as opposed to "i only have one idea"

does the tape even follow the 'concept' at all outside the opening skit and the title track? it seems like the other songs could've been on any tape

Looks like Trap Niggas is on DS2. Good choice.

Beast Mode is just as much an in-the-zone tape as 56 Nights imo - it's just more diverse and colorful. Feels like both Future and Zay are spreading their wings a little and are enjoying each other's company.

echoing all the beast mode/zaytoven love. for me, it's beast > 56 nights > monster

the first time i listened to 56 nights, future did the "coolest dj in the world" escomoe tag himself and for whatever reason i could imagine him saying "...whatever the fuck that means" right after. and on the very next song, he did. the food i was eating started tasting really sour.

It's obviously a concept album in the sense that the recession is

Like an underlying theme /mood animated by certain irl events

it's weird, i like the *sound* of the opening skit on 56 Nights so much, i never skip it. lagoon otm July 10.

on the other hand, Now sucks, i have decided

yeah no

where's the thread where i complained about how i hate the sound of drinks being opened and consumed in commercials?

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

nah monster > beast mode imo but they're all good. a playlist of all 3 mixtapes is prob my most listened to thing this year

yeah prefer the highs of monster to beast mode generally

^^ i've been coming around to beast mode lately tho

i literally forgot move that dope was a future song

future elimating guest verses nearly altogther was such a great move

this song is mean spirited

that is true!

lol

i like throw away because you get 2 tracks for 1

i have been enjoying the percocet & stripper joint lately

he mentions wu tang at least twice across these releases

the second song in 'throw away' goes into some kind of weird metal machine glitch tunes thing and it's cool
