Released after the critical panning of his 9th studio album the king of hip hop responded in a thunderous way to his critics and nemesis from the very first track.This album became famous for dissing mumble rap game as a whole leaving mumble rappers like Lil Pump,Lil Yatchy,Migos dumbfounded.Such vicious was the attack nobody even dared to reply back to him except for one,MGK(We all know how that ended up).MGK released a diss track Rap Devil only to be taken out completely by Killshot.The first single of the album "Fall" was strictly aimed at the critics,Joe Budden and Tyler the Creator,the later of the two were seen speaking negatively about him in the public.
The tracks which deserve special mention are The Ringer,Not Alike,Venom and Lucky You with Joyner Lucas.
In Ringer he dissed the current rap scene,music critics who panned his last album and even Mr.Trump(which Im happy he actually did).The production of this song is handled by Illa da Producer and Ronny J.It was a top ten hit in many countries and one of the most lethal diss tracks in recent memory.You gotta applaud the man for his rhyming skills,the way he switches his flows and his delivery.Impeccable!
Another big hit of this album is Lucky You.Joining hands with Joyner Lucas he dissed the new generation rappers who copy the bigger artists and don't have anything original to offer.
Venom is from the soundtrack of the movie Venom by Sony Pictures in which he raps being possesed by this supernatural entity.The chorus is a catchy one!
In "Not Alike" with Royce da 5'9" he dissed MGK and mocked Migos Bad and Boujee flow in the hook.This is another great rap song in which he shows his rhyming ability and clever lyricism.
All in all this is among the best rap albums to come this past decade and with lyrics which would sting like a bee to his nemesis,this would be the one to remember for a long time.
Rating:- 4.5/5
