I guess I just have another definition of great~ A bunch of songs almost none of which reach 9.0 is not that great in my opinion. At least not in the long run.

People are allowed to express the fact they are enjoying this the way they see fit, just in the same way you are allowed to criticise it.

Yes we are.

Definitely a step up from the last one (lol, not hard) but my god it's LONG. He's never really been one for quality control since each of the individual Trilogy segments. Some really good moments throughout though, I'm a fan ~

I sort of like the album. I wouldn't want loads more in this style and it is nowhere near as great as the Trilogy mixtapes but you can make a half decent effort if you combine the highs on this with the best of his last one.


THIS!

And 'False alarm' is a jam happy.gif

Yes, I really like False Alarm too - as well as Starboy, Party Monster, Rockin', Ordinary Life and I Feel It Coming. I already have Trilogy so don't need another one, this has enough pop highs to justify it's creation for me.

There is potential for a concise quality record but there is just too much uninteresting bloat here. 'I Feel it Coming' remains slinky as hell though, I love it.

His voice is far too whiney to pull off an album this long. Im on track 4 and it's already grating on me! Not sure I can last the whole album tbh.

Listened to this last night. There's some great moments on there but the whole thing is FAR too long, on top of which, a lot of the tracks seem hard to differentiate between. Perhaps they'll stand out more when listening to them individually, rather than as part of the album. If 'I Feel It Coming' wasn't the last track, I'd be convinced I was listening to a deluxe edition.

Most of the tracks have grown on me more. I can see why people think it's too long but I love almost all the tracks (only one I don't really see the point of inclusion for is 'Attention' - even though it's not bad it's the only one I wouldn't miss) wub.gif. Hope he can squeeze many hits out of this album.

I'm not overly enamoured with the album overall but I Feel It Coming is glorious, easily my favourite ever song of his, what a gorgeous bassline melody, it's been in my head all week. Rockin' is the only other song I love, fantastic garage throwback <3

I Feel It Coming and Rockin' are both immense, they both need to be big hits.

My album rank right now (excluding the interlude 'cause I find it hard to place it on the list). 'Secrets' was one of my favorites in the beginning but the instrumental doesn't really do it for me. Still, it would be a really good single choice.

01. Six Feet Under
02. False Alarm
03. Nothing without You
04. Rockin’
05. A Lonely Night
06. Sidewalks
07. Starboy
08. Party Monster
09. Love to Lay
10. All I Know
11. I Feel It Coming
12. Reminder
13. Die for You
14. Secrets
15. Ordinary Life
16. True Colors
17. Attention

There's enough material on here to stretch out a long album campaign. I think that after 'I Feel It Coming' he should release a song that is not an obvious smash but will still keep interest like 'A Lonely Night' or 'Sidewalks' and then release 'Rockin'' and 'Secrets' later on in the campaign.

One of my least favorites on the album, but I guess it's a good single choice. I still want 'Rockin'' as a single too.
