bumped this a couple of times this weekend
gon give my knee jerk impressions, and follow it up 6 months from now to see if my opinion has changed
so...this project feels like two different albums sonically. Again, i dont know if Chuck produced the entire album by himself, but if he did, im impressed. Half of it feels like that classic, cool kids, heavy bass laced songs. The other half sounds more updated and contemporary rhythms. Not a bad thing, but it feels like some songs might get tried to made into singles or some movie soundtrack type music.
I can best sum this up by comparing it to Childish Gambino's STN MTN/Kauai mixtape where one album (STN MTN) was all rap and Kauai, was more RnB which kinda ushered in the "Awaken My Love" album. They have a song feat Jeremih for example. Its not bad at all...like some party lounge type music
I can hear the growth in the production
so for now...i give this 4/5 ABW webs
