    I'm only a few songs in but I like it so far. On "Red" when IDK came on I legit thought it was Kanye rapping for a sec so I see the comparison like @Koolo said

    I’m so confused. Is this actually Kanye rapping under a different name? Not a terrible tbh. Probably just seems good cuz Vince’s is that bad.

    I liked this so much more than his debut. I liked Red and the joint with Rico Nasty.

    @Koolo on "Auntie" did you catch the implication that he got molested as child? Had to look up the lyrics to make sure I heard that right cuz he cuts off the lyric halfway thru the word. I guess he previously talked about it in an interview. :emoji_slight_frown:

    I don’t like this, didn’t even finish. Feels like a bad Kanye impersonation with little to no personality.

    Therre always been something missing with me for IDK. He doesn't really have the x factor.

    I'm enjoying this way more than I thought I would and wayyy more than Vince's album.

    I think it’s the lack of identity tbh. I liked him going et logic but that was about it

    Yep while I thought the album was solid there’s def a lack of uniqueness/personality that holds him back from really setting himself apart. Def a HUGE improvement over his debut tho

    Why did you like him being negative by going after Logic. Logic would destroy this kid in a battle. I love the debate on whether Logic is black when it’s proven his mom was white and dad was black. That makes him biracial and half black. Reminds me of the Obama citizen debate, just backwards since he actually isn’t a US citizen and never should have been president. That birth certificate was fake as s--- and unproven, buts proven who Logics parents are through Ancestry.com

    Honestly IDK's lack of personality reminds me of RMR which is a really bad sign because RMR makes some of the worst music I've ever heard. It's really the production and features that keep this afloat.

    yall been sleeping on IDK. I dont think any of his full albums have ever really worked out - especially the last one which came off as trying too hard - but this might be the closest he's got to a definite piece of work imo.

    His singles game is absolutely unrivalled though. He's at his best when he's doing weird little interpolations and bouncing off other guest features, more of a curator than a solo artist. Its interesting seeing all the Kanye comparisons suddenly crop up, I've always heard a lot of older Eminem in his style.

    Reminds me of all those Kanye x Tyga "leaks" that dropped a few years back where neither one of them sounded like they were actually Kanye or Tyga
