So last night I listened to Below the Heavens for the first time. Guys, I cannot believe it took me this long to check it out. Album is fucking incredible. The production is amazing, every beat and sample is so perfect, the lyrics are so real and relatable, and his flow is always on point. First listen and I was completely blown away. I think it's probably the most enjoyment I've gotten out of a first listen ever. Been bumping it all day and I think I'll be riding this for a while. Probably already a top five album of the decade for me. Man it's so good. What were your guys' initial impressions when you first heard it? Am I overexaggerating or do you guys see the album same way I am? Heard you guys say he's dropped off since then, truly a shame. I definitely wasnt feeling that December release of his like this.

Now you can go listen to everyting else he's released since and be heartbroken. Then you'll be on our level.

Amnesia, and Johnson&Jonson are the only "good" releases he's done since BTH

Incredible album, it's almost perfect.

Jesus, Her Favourite Color, and Johnson& Johnson are definitely worth checking out too. Plus the newest Blu & Exile album, it's unmastered but still fucking great. Dude really does need to get his shit together though, don't want to see him start getting knocked out by girls like Charles Hamilton.

Edit: Nevermind you said you didn't feel Flowers.

Fuck Cudi man. I listened to Dose of Dopeness thinking it was on WZRD and was getting hyped. Now I know it was over 3 years old. I could take an album full of tracks like Dose of Dopeness.

By Amnesia you mean Her Favorite Color, right?
Also, the C.R.A.C. Knuckles album wasn't bad, he also has two mixtapes called Soul Amazing or something like that that were okay if I remember.
And put me in the camp that liked NoYork and a few of his releases from his uhm....recent non-mastering phase. Give Me My Flowers and Jesus most notably.
Oh and he also produced an album with Sene that wasn't half bad either.
Anyway, Tyler, yeah Below the Heavens is a fucking classic.

Not a huge fan of the CRAC Knucks album. It's alright but J&J was better.

MOTM1 was good, but this was a slightly different vibe. Cant explain it but it hit me like A Kid Named Cudi did.

Game has done so good tracks, but he is always killed on his own tracks. This is no exception. I mean, sure none of these Slaughterhouse fucks know how to ride this beat correctly, and Budden stays boring as fuck...but still.

Funny considering I thought Budden had the best verse. Actually, he's had the best verse on most of SH's stuff recently.

That list still doesn't make sense only because I never hear anybody talking about Wale or Meek Mill. When the last time either has been given much attention even here?

But I don't pay attention to sales so I guess their stuff is selling great?

I don't think I've ever knowingly listened to meek mill song. Searching on my itunes all I have are some guest spots. Never heard anybody talking about Wale, and the only people talking about big sean around here are 14 year old white kids.

edit: not talking about gaf, talking about in real life

it's a great list if you ask me.

"almost famous" people (kendrick, rocky, danny brown, etc) shouldn't be anywhere near it.

They are hot in the streets plus the MMG connection.

Ambition sold well and Dreamchasers was pretty hot. And they had huge singles

Agreed, although Ross over Drake is laughable. Ross had his album pushed back and had two singles flop. While Rich Forever was big, it was a mixtape. Drake released one of the biggest albums of the year and every song he put out became a hit.

Ross will barely go gold with GFID even though it'll probably be awesome

Can't listen. Those sunglasses make it physically impossible for me to even attempt it.
