  • I already knew that this was not a style of hip-hop that I enjoy. So I went into this with low expectations and I think I can say my expectations were met lol.

    It felt like Bodak Yellow was supposed to be one of the highlights of the album and I can see the appeal there but that one is not for me.

    Two songs that I kind of liked were Be Careful and I Like It. Be Careful was a nice change of pace from the rest of the album and it had an interesting beat. And I Like It was just too much fun with the booming bass over the “I like it like that” sample.

    Other than those two tracks and a few absurd lines from Cardi that made me crack a smile there wasn’t much else I liked from this album.



















  • Before giving this a listen the only song I had heard from Naughty by Nature was O.P.P. I’m really glad I gave this a listen. This is right up my alley when it comes to old school hip hop. I love the constant onslaught of rhymes over the old school funky beats.

    A lot of good songs here but I’ll highlight City of Ci-Lo and Klickow-Klickow specifically for the beats. Both have a more dissonant sound which I really like.

    I wasn’t a fan of a few of the cheesier choruses. Especially Slang Bang. That one got a little annoying. But I get that their just trying to grab people’s attention with some of those.

    Shout Out felt like it didn’t belong but I appreciate what they were trying to do there. I can’t complain too much about it since they still put out nearly an hour of rapping if you skip that one.

    Overall a great album and I plan to check out more of their work now.
