Running it back as we speak and it sounds like he fixed the vocal levels on streaming platforms, not hearing any yelling.

Damn you’re right. Rich kids was bad. I didn’t even know that was a thing.

That yelling was my biggest gripe. Gonna run it back and see if that changes my mind on the album

It sounds way better without the yelling.

There we go! I know you been an OG Dom fan so it’s always dope when new music satisfies the core fan base. Foreal it’s got a great pace to it from track to track and each song feels like it’s got a distinct touch of Dom that we love.

Dat 25th hour Dom is byke :pimp:

Now just need “Control System” Ab Soul to drop.

Ok hella spins in the whip. Album a solid 8/10. The back half has gotten the most play. Emergency, promise, loved, lonely heartz, emergency, Celine etc. I mess with Leanin and slauson Phil tho.

Yeah I’m feeling this. He still needs to take his voice down a notch on a few songs.

Ran it back with the adjusted audio. Did a thorough car test and Im feeling more tracks than on my first listen. I enjoy:

Rich kids
Leanin
Legendary
Slauson Phil

Miracle on 43rd

Celine
Loved
Gallery
Sketches from Westlake

Slauson and Miracle probably the only ones makin the Dom playlist. The rapping is there, but the production sounds pretty lackluster. The tracks with the features were the worst to me. But this is a solid Dom project. Not his worst or best. I’ll take it

After almost a month, this is some of his best work since Yellow Album. I have this in my personal album of the year territory.

Gibbs got AOTY for me but this is definitely a solid Dom project. I know lot of my friends who were Dom faithfuls left him for dead (rightfully so) bout 4-5 years ago but this is a good sign and hopefully he builds off this.

I will say this a lot of the recent Dom joints dont blow me away on first listen like they once did, but I end up enjoying them over time. 2008 - 2017 all first listen heat experiences. After 2017 I aint really rock with some projects off first spin but then runnin em back I find the gems.

sosa labumba · Nov 7, 2024

Rap N Roll first listen was heat that joint def fire from front to back

New sit down

Recently revisited from Westside w/ Love 3 and I really feel like thats one of his best current-ish bodies of work. Class of 95 is cool but I really prefer the production on westside.
