“SZA knows how to make an entrance. She had the world fiending so hard for her new Lana — first she announced the album drop for Friday at midnight, then kept everyone chewing our fingernails while she took an extra 15 hours to give it the right finishing touches. But it was worth it. Lana arrives just in time to tie a bow around the music year, just like her epochal blockbuster SOS did two Decembe”
“What a Time to Be Alive was allegedly born out of an impromptu, six-day recording session between Drake and Future, and the mixed results won't surprise anyone who has already noted the decided lack of chemistry between the two. There's been a Drake feature on every Future album, but none of them are particularly riveting, and on What a Time it's clearer than ever that they have difficulty sharing the same space.”
“It's decent. While a few tracks feature an equal and exciting marriage of Champagne Papi and Future Hendrix, most of what's here feels like DS2 runoff with a solid Drake feature.”
“Mostly mid with a few gems. A lot of this project sounds like you’re typical trap music with subpar Drake and Future verses. Production from Metro Boomin almost saves the album. Top songs are ‘Big Rings’ ‘Jumpman’ ‘30 For 30 Freestyle’ ‘Scholarships’”
“The contrast with Future battling his demons inside him and then Drake facing problems with himself like fame money and women was interesting to hear. Solid album but nothing really sat with me through the listen”
