    Going to age like fine wine.

    Clearly better than Jeffrey,SS3 & SS2. It is neck & neck with B6 & SS1.

    Well it's basically him showing himself to Jerrika and his transitioning from the carefree bachelor lifestyle to settling down and getting married. The first few tracks he's stunting his accomplishments but also talking to his family and to her and letting them know that he'll always ride for them as long as they ride for him; it's just that he feels he deserves to do whatever he wants since he's the one providing everything for everyone around him. Then on Relationships he's kind of struggling with commitment and settling down and it could be seen as a night of partying and being careless for him; but then on You Said he finds himself alone and thinking about Jerrika and trying to place what she means to him into perspective. On Fire is basically the centerpiece as he's questioning himself and trying to realize his purpose in the lives of those he cares about. Get High sends him on a hazy trip down memory lane as the three tracks that follow we're all made in 2015 when he was first falling in love with Jerrika and it perhaps makes him realize how much she truly means to him and that he needs her. So then he bounces back clearheaded and determined on For Y'all and Take Care stating that he'll risk his life for those he loves and accepting that he needs to go hard to provide for them at all costs. Then the last line on the album is "I know you want a savage to give you a ring right? Take Care." speaking directly to Jerrika and letting her know exactly what she's in for if she chooses to really take the next step with him.

    It's gotten way better. I don't get why first listens are better for you, all great albums grow with repeated listens for me :thinkinghmmm:

    For me personally this is still AOTY for me. Has your opinion risen or lowered? I mean its prob naturally gonna lower cos first listens are always exciting but from a general standpoint where you at with it?
