    Vince Staples is undoubtedly the most underrated artist with one of the best discographies and progression of any artist out. He constantly delivers.

    @erik_forsmoo 2 роки тому +58

    I feel exactly the same way. The beats on self titled were so colorful and interesting, and Vince did a great job working with those beats. On this album the production just feels too minimalistic, and the beats with more momentum can sometimes get dragged down by Vince's sleepy delivery. There are songs on this project that I love such as When Sparks Fly, Papercuts and Rose Street, but for the most part it all just blends together.

      @@ktrl.1782 There's a difference between cohesive and repetitive. Songs like Slide, Mama's Boy and Bang That don't do anything that stands out, and because of that I don't think they're necessary. On self titled every song either has a memorable hook, verse or beat that sets it apart from the rest, while still maintaining the same soundscape. For the record I think this album is great and it has grown on me since its release, but it's not an aoty contender or anything for me.

    I personally love it on first listen but I get the feeling I’m gonna really really love it on multiple listens especially some of the tracks. You had some valid criticisms and it’s always cool to hear what you have to say. Hopefully we get an update on a « what I’m listening” telling us you love it too hahaha

    I think his self titled definitely had some of the best beats I ever heard but I think with this album Vince sounded more west coast if that makes sense but I feel like the reason for that was due to the fact that it's more based on his home rather than the self titled project which is more of him and his artistic ability , hence why it's called Vince Staples. That's what I think but still think this could be an album of the year and I love the laid back contribution he has on the tracks

    I'm sorry but this my album of the year so far and its definitely my favorite vince project. Summertime 06 is incredible but its too bloated in my opinion. Fm! is great but its more of the opposite of summertime where I feel like its too short. Same goes for his self titled project even though I loved that album too.

    If Vince staples called it a wrap for his career I would be proud of his discography. Came out strong with his mixtapes along with his first and sophomore (CLASSIC) album, took a little dip with Prima Donna and FM but really learned and progressed and has delivered the most solid back to back projects . My personal opinion

    I can respect Shawn's opinion lol. I think I need to have more listens before establishing a solid consensus. So far, I do think more could've been done with his voice & those who were on the tracks with him. The vibe is a bit monotonous, perhaps that's what they were going for. But oddly enough (at least in comparison to Shawn's opinion) I feel like this album has a warmer feeling than previous ones. Maybe it's the production idk...

    From first listening you get pulled in by the beauty laid back vibes you hear a Beach wave through out the whole album. Vince flows are very calm and melancholy like listening to a ocean vibe playlist.
    On the surface the album sound beautiful it looks beautiful long beach looks beautiful on the surface but when you go below and the surface and see whats going on your realize like Vince said "Ain't nothing sweet ask suga free".
    The writing is very dark very menacing. You get story and warning of the life in Romana park and how it broke his heart. Thats at least my interpretation of it.

    I think a lot of people are forgetting Vince’s albums are all about perception and the meaning of them. From summertime to present every album has meant something and followed a theme. I see a lot of comments reflecting on his “lack of effort” the whole album is called Ramona park broke my heart, the vibe isn’t meant to be fully uplifting and although there’s a hand pick of uplifting songs, Vince is clearly trying to show you the demoralizing end of an era that he succeeded in. It’s an album that once you listen from start to back over n over again you pick up on the small things, the overall sound. Congrats to Vince on making 2 incredible albums within 12 months

Those stories he's telling is real and that's why you hear a relaxed version of him. It's a good thing because he grew into something other than we see him right now. He giving us heat next year It's vibe I'm getting from him.

    I really disagree with Shawn’s on his relationship lyrics. After listening to self-Titled, he got pretty real about his love game saying he hits it once and then he is stuck.
    Now he’s saying he has been hurt by being in love, he speaks about a girl that got away, and tells someone that he loves he will watch over them from heaven if he dies. I don’t think Vince is trying to be entertaining, the lyrics are him being open about his personal struggle with love. It’s Vince Staples’ love experience thus far and it feels very genuine and relatable to me. If you care about this man and his journey then you can let those emotions speak for themselves.

    I might be wrong but i think throughout the album he represents Ramona Park as a lover. That’s why out of context it might sound like regular relationship problems you hear in most r&b songs. But I do agree he could’ve been more personal on this album and standout more instead of sounding like background music. but other than that I thought it was a good album.
