A return to pure rapping. Technical, hungry, and feature-heavy (21 Savage, Lil Baby). Lacks the emotional depth of his best work but proves his pen is sharp. 8/10
A somber, narrative-driven album framed around a friend’s death. Less immediate than Forest Hills Drive , but the closing title track is one of his most powerful songs. Some tracks feel filler-heavy. 7.5/10
A major step up. Darker, more cohesive, and lyrically sharper. Tracks like “Power Trip,” “Crooked Smile,” and “Let Nas Down” showcase his growth. It’s dense but rewards repeat listens. 8/10
