Album is really good if you take it for what it is

i lost my dad to covid in 2020, and i couldn't listen to this song for a while...
it's so poetic and sad, but very well written

Which one's the better album, this or Act

amazing album

Sorry for your loss man

apidta is jay’s best song ever. maybe not his best rapping, but the emotion it envokes, the themes, the beat, perfection

All love to you brother

More leaks coming a lot crazy stuff

Bro this album was incredible

That first verse on the neverending story

literal masterpiece. album is crystallized as one of my favorites ever.

definitely gotta dedicate an essay to this for a project or some s*** whenever i get the chance

I listen to this album a lot

I hate this guy for not getting act 2 properly mixed. S*** got so much praise and he just left it as an unfinished leak lmao

AWT is wonderful tho. Always pleasant to return to

"I'm like, "Don't he know I stay up for Falon late nights?"
She need bread, she need rice, she need threads, she need ice"

Absolutely love this bar, the clever reference to the late night show and how his sister's needs go from needing the measliest of foods in bread and rice to requiring clothes and then lastly jewelry.

That Jay Z flow thread made my revisit this

It’s better than I remembered fs

Act for sure, without a shadow of a doubt.

Same

AWT imo

Might need to give it another spin

Falon is a reference to The Prestige too. Triple entendre.

Genius

Where can I hear act 2

When I look inside the mirror all I see is flaws
When I look inside the mirror all I see is Mars

Mars is also the name of his daughter.

It's really a deep, explanatory verse for the stans; the irony is it became the most popular song on the album. Shame the beat is so... plain.

Ty fren!
