I agree but the titles/cover/rollout certainly didn't help. I've seen worse albums do a lot better
Oh absolutely the fact he did all of this especially for the end project was just silly
Situations like that always feel like the artist trying to cope for the music
I make albums so people can play it and you actually hear it. You know, driving your car, you hear another car playing it. You know, go to the barbershop, you hear them playing it. You know, turn the radio on, and you hear them playing it. It’s called great music. It’s called albums that you actually hear the songs. Not no mysterious s*** that you never hear it.
the funny thing is, Bino even KNOWS this too
why else would you title the song with Ariana
he knows thats the popping feature that a lot of people will tune in to listen to, so he made sure to put a title and credits on THAT one because he knows the importance
maybe his manager or someone begrudgingly made him do it, but it basically shows that his team knew exactly what they were doing and did it anyway
Yeah looks so half assed the way two songs have names, then he had to add the features on 2. And left the 21 savage one unnamed
Also Childish thought he had it like Kendrick and could seek 170k fw with no titles but
the song names are supposed to be an algorithm based on time which is why those are the only two songs with real titles but next to no one got that
Yeah lowkey it triggered my iTunes OCD that he didn't at least consequently give all titles numbers with just two random ones having names
12.38 is one of my favs as well

I can never figure what he says at the end of that quote:
"pardon your dome?"
Imma be real that's the only (new) track from the album I really love. Need to give it a relisten tho.
That and Feels Like Summer are def among his best material
s/o to the people in that 3.15.20 listening thread when the album was streaming on the website
I can never figure what he says at the end of that quote:
"pardon your dome?"
It's supposed to be "Pon your dome" in a patois style I think
the outro>>>>>>

I think it was discovered that there was html puzzle in the website nobody saw or solved in time. I think the idea was that if it was cracked we’d get the titles and the artwork but we never did.
Which is a cool concept but dumb and pretentious to gatekeep that s*** for no good reason months later, especially after adding the titles and features to the popular songs.
He's right, but at the same time...what's stopping artists and people from sharing music that they really like? Like that was part of Gambino's goal with the album. Create something that people can share with others. Like a true word of mouth kinda thing. Create conversations and share music.
Was it headass? In many ways yeah, but it's not that crazy of an idea. Especially if you got the money and other creative avenues/outlets like Donald

seeing DJ Khaled have a b**** fit about another half-assed compilation album not going #1 was so strange to see
