I'm curious what J0rd thinks?

have only listened once, but i am not entirely surprised by the mixed reception, considering this is such a blatant mainstream play. but i think it's pretty good overall, give or take a j. cole verse, definitely a major step above last year's alb.

I’m not sure what mainstream means in this context

it feels like he’s trying to speak more to the rap establishment with the wu appearances, plus 21 savage and j. cole guest verses

oh ok that makes sense. He’s bigger than j cole in my mind but that’s probably empirically wrong

two months pass...

caught his concert last night, the show is incredible. live version of “anybody” blew the roof off the place

recorded version of “it’s plenty” was a bit too cheesy to me but a stadium full of people singing along and going nuts to it while Burna boy is jumping up and down with the worlds widest grin on his face with confetti cannons and fireworks going off behind him really warmed me on it
