Weirdly, I enjoyed it less after a couple more listens. There's less going on there than it first seems. The Needle Drop gave it a 10! But then he's an absolute tool so I guess that was to be expected. I do like the album a lot, but is it really as experimental as people are making it out to be? Plenty of Hip-hop artists have tread similar ground, and it's hardly a revolutionary sound. It seems that popular Hip-hop artists get given credit for doing something even slightly left-field. Having said that, it's probably a solid 8/10.
