    “This ? Lyte, through
    And if you don’t know what transparent means
    Let me enlighten you
    If it’s transparent that means it lets the light through
    So I should smack this Tran’s parents for letting Lyte through”


    Got. Damn.

    I dont like trying to compare albums. I cant compare LT2 to CS. Two totally different pieces of work.


    (Still havent heard ? )

    I can't agree with this homie i think you really listen to the project for what it is, we as hiphop fans tend to compare projects with previous projects , over yhe years i learned to stop doing that

    CS has something about it that I find hard to explain...

    This album has that same something....

    Been bumping since last night and I'm loving this although I agree with the comment on subject matter...CS has more substance.

    It's no secret that I feel like CS is one of the greatest recent albums I've heard...

    This is heading the same way for me.

    After a couple of listens I'm disappointed with this project.it'll get some play from me but half of the entire thing sounds lazy and disjointed.

    Looking forward to something a bit more organised and focused on his next one.

    Not impressed.

    It's not bad but his last ? was way better

    A lot of the beats got this same lazy vibe

    I think he's a dope MC,but I'll need to hear more because rt now it's not hitting me

    I don't agree that it sucks but I do agree w/ this. I hate it when artists forget what made their ? great in the first place... I'll prolly still cop just because of how much I ? with him as an artist but ehhhh

    on the first listen its dope

    lyrically he's one of the best right now, the beats are nice (i would say CS had better beats, this one had less Digi-Phonics specifically Tae Beats). he always made "turn up" music just always with a lyrical message on it

    He describes this album as a snapshot of the times and describes himself as Lupe on drugs which is pretty accurate IMO

    yea not feeling it really. production is wack overall to me. ? all over the place conceptually. hopefully it grows and gets better with some more listens,,,,he got some dope rhymes but the songs and production make this ? borderline wack.

    ? was really disappointing...i only liked 3/4 tracks
