1. Intro: 6/10. Great hype opening, anthemic beat. Can feel his flow is becoming his own style.
2. Way It Goes: 7/10. Head bobbing track. Loving his life story pieces.
3. Sittin’ So High: 6/10. Same track from Hot Soup, same rating.
4. Get The Message: 4/10. Something about the mixing on this one, doesn’t totally flow for me.
5. What Up Doe: 7/10. Same track from Hot Soup, same rating.
6. Got Me Open: 4/10. Something about it feels dated, can’t put my finger on it. I don’t connect with it.
7. Never Say Never: 5/10. Nothing bad about the track but nothing stands out.
8. I Ain’t No Hoe: 7/10. Rap scheme in first verse is crazy, love the first verse. The electric guitar is a little busy and distracting.
9. Stupid: 6/10. Hilarious lyrics, love the hook.
10. Squeeze Precisely: 7/10. Same track from Hot Soup. I like this production less on scond listen but I like the hook more. No features on this one which I enjoy more. Rated higher.
11. Fire: 5/10. Cutty Easter egg referenced again. Love the aggressive flow.
12. Won’t Do: 6/10. Wish the bass carried through with this one. Chill vibe.
13. Streets of Detroit: 5/10. Same track from Hot Soup. I think it fits better in this tracklist. Rated higher.
Overall Mathematical Score: 5.8/10
Does the heart agree?: Yes and no. The mixtape is slightly padded with songs from Hot Soup as most of the tracks I rated the highest included here. Without the 4 duplicates the album mathematically scores 5.5.
Song to listen to: Way It Goes
