“And he proves it here. Braggadocious and slick as all hell, this album establishes Tyler as not just one of hip-hop’s greats, but his versatility as an emcee. All while handling his own production as always. Amazing. Favs: CORSO, WUSYANAME, LUMBERJACK, HOT WIND BLOWS, RUNITUP, SWEET / I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE, RISE!, JUGGERNAUT”
“Easily Tyler’s best album for me. It’s got everything you want from production, writing, rapping, features, melodies etc. the energy he brings to this album is great. Top songs are ‘CORSO’ ‘WUSYANAME’ ft NBA Youngboy ‘JUGGERNAUT’ ft Lil Uzi Vert & Pharrell ‘SAFARI’ ‘WILSHIRE’ ‘LEMONHEAD’ ft 42 Dugg”
“i enjoy what tyler did with this album, i find myself gravitating more to his “older” stuff, but i really appreciate what he did here. my favorite tracks are rise, manifesto, sweet/ i thought you wanted to dance, wilshire and juggernaut.”
“Really no misses. Summer rap vibe is on point and every song feels just different enough. Some more personal songs as well. Favs: WUSYANAME, HOT WIND BLOWS, SWEET/ITYWTD”
