56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER

tracklist is v guest-heavy, breaking future's recent mold of entirely/almost entirely solo stuff

it is credited to esco hosted by future tho hes on all but 2 tracks

3!

there are skits on this one, many of y'all may prob want to wait for the DJ-free version that'll prob show up on soundcloud or streaming services

stupidly crazy is nice

yeah it is - on first listen I was thinking "this is a hell of a banger for an odd future affiliate showcase" then realized it was a mustard beat, that'd be why

the non-future tracks are all decent to good, although they don't fit that well with the sound and mood of the rest of the tape

lol yea it made me go dl casey veggies mixtape havent listened yet

When Future gets enthusiastic in conversation, which isn't often, the music lurking in his drawl comes out. "They raising them. They young. Fresh. Partying till six in the morning. They're doing that shit every night."

i liked this line:

Six feet three with long, blond-tipped dreads, top-notch cheekbones and the sleepy swagger of the high school athlete he once was, he looks less like an actual rapper than a movie star cast as one.

lil bit rude but maybe a lil bit true too

completely true lol

rude

a future career obit & a future king-making profile dropped the same day.

who published the obit & why would they do such a thing

http://www.stereogum.com/1885198/the-future-era-is-over/franchises/status-aint-hood/?utm_source=sc-fb&utm_medium=ref&utm_campaign

At one point in the profile, Future is talking about the possibility of settling down, but he might as well be talking about his music: “Why fix something if it’s not broke? If I break it, and I try to fix it again, it might not be the same.”

That piece is laughable. Yeah sure, Future's career is over because he made a holdover mixtape for his friend.

can't wait for the FUTURE IS BACK column when he makes another mixtape in 2 months

Also Purple Reign was low key but killer, I kinda like it better (or at least as much) as M/BM/56

purple reign has like 4-5 tracks i like

being generous

could prob say the same for all his recent tapes, and that's not a knock

I maybe give it bonus points for no mention of urinating on women, that I've picked up on anyway

on a less important note, they have the zaytoven instrumentals for beast mode on spotify, which is making for some pretty good at-work listening rn

Yeah this is really hitting the spot rn, Zoom is great.

It sounds kinda cool but I'm not quite convinced. I need a bit more ballads and heartbreak and future in my future.

cool opinion from three years ago

Well, I prefer the Future from three years ago to this guy. It was fun and exciting up until DS2 but from then on it's mostly been diminishing returns.

yes... it has been noted...

scrape it out the barrel when he review it ~skrrt skrrt skrrt skrrt~

take off the first two, 'poppin tags', and poss 'super trapper', and this would be front 2 back mesmerising imo

it's a fine art and (since michael man fell off) he honing it

I was super excited on the first listen. But then the emptiness set in.

Still hanging on for Beast Mode 2, though.

I'm very happy for your enthusiasm. Don't get me wrong.

lol the first three and "poppin tags" are my favourites plus "scrape". there are some cool moments on it but it's more treading circles than honing to me, it's neither elevation nor advancement and the emotional impact is diminished after the 84392892147th mixtape/album in the same vein

xxp how did u ever engage w/ him without embracing the emptiness

even his greatest romances held their depth in ephemerality not timelessness

there was always emptiness but it had a counterweight in a certain optimism, the desire for revelation and light. That dynamic was what defined him and which made embracing the emptiness - as part of the truth but not the whole truth about human existence - appealing in the first place.

lol @ grab on that pussy like donald

on first listen i detect a lil of the bouncy early mixtape future on this
