[@thekidmanic9066]

Unpopular Opinion: This album is actually a perfect album. The fact that Rocky actually figured out a way to make a singular project sound like snippets found from studios throughout his career, it kinda makes this album sound like a scrapbook. I think “Testing” was the perfect name due to it being just that, a collection of tests and snippets. It’s also interesting that it’s his only album not containing a period in place of spaces(due to it also being the only one word titled album) and the only album not relating to the immortality of A$AP and hip-hop in general. I think this album says a lot about how ahead of the game A$AP truly is. I think that this album wasn’t accepted on release because we weren’t ready for it yet, it’s completely different from most music released in 2018. I personally think some tracks on this record are absolutely impeccable, for instance, Changes is Rocky’s FML, Praise The Lord is a classic, Gunz and Butter applies an Odd Future sound to the album, which is a really refreshing transition from the synth on Buck Shots. I truly believe that Rocky would be heavily involved in A$AP and the rap game today if this album wasn’t so heavily criticized for being the only thing it was ever trying to be. After all, aren’t we always asking for more A$AP and Rocky, he gave us LITERAL STUDIO CLIPS AND EVEN PHONE CALLS WITH HIS MOM and we complained. Overall, BEAUTIFUL album, 9-10/10, Rocky needs more synths and to stop referencing Fortnite, he should probably collab with The Weeknd, and I should replace Melon.🎵🍉🍈 edit: i realize that it was phone calls with Kodak, which is even crazier that he managed to get a feature over a federal call.

its really interesting to me. Like it makes me want to listen more than once for sure

[@Kizzeret]

He seemed to be trying something new but there is much better experimental music out there. It was like a 6. I did enjoy it, it’s just not amazing

[@austin7125]

Same bro, idk why so many people disliked this project. The production alone is so wild. I don't expect people who don't make music to get that, but it really is wild as far as a lot of mainstream rap goes. But everyone has their own opinion ig 😕

Idk why every year I like more n more songs of the album it was like a 6/10 when it first dropped but now it’s a decent 8.5/10 asap was always ahead of he’s time, it’s still he’s worst album outta in he’s discography but still a very amazing album

[@AutonovaAI]

wrong about birds in the trap aswell

[@unimpressedalchemist]

Nah, that album is trash.

[@AutonovaAI]

Alex VonBerg to me birds is a solid album not trav best but at least at 7.5/10 - however music is subjective and there is no such thing as ‘trash music’

[@nick11201119]

I don’t know what it is about this album, but I keep coming back to it. I feel like the album offers a song to every mood of mine. If I’m hype I’m playing Tony Tone or praise the lord. If I want something EDMish I’m gonna put in buck shots. And if I’m in a chill or sad mood I’m putting on Hun43rd, kids turned out fine or Purity. This album grows on me after every listen and Rocky truly made a masterpiece in my opinion. Happy 2020 everyone!

the review that we were waiting for....🍿🍿🍿

[@jahnniii]

straight up

[@Obi3D]

Easily Fantano's worst review. He's so off I honestly want to assume he has some extreme bias against Rocky. How does he not feel the emotional weight of ASAP Forever? That intro sounds like a fuckin IMAX movie, and that outro has such emotional weight. How did he not mention Gunz N Butter or Hun43rd. 2 classics? This review is garbage man.

[@Venenoso]

Purity best song on the album

Venenoso no

[@puncake_general318]

Buck shots*

[@celestialmonkey]

I thought fuck sleep was one of the few good songs, his comatose delivery fits the vibe

[@eternalkick]

Memes aside, I’m gonna have to disagree with this review. I really liked this album. I felt Cudi’s feature on A$AP forever was dope especially with him humming the beat. The song Changes to me was great. I guess because I’m slowly getting into adult life myself being 20 years old.

[@Ju7Be]

I don't think age has something to do with it. I'm also 20 years old an I thought this album was a disappointment, really boring tbh

[@eternalkick]

Ju7Be to each its own I guess

[@babyhoho6745]

[@l3thalimpuls373]

I’m starting to think he has something against kid cudi... I really liked ASAP Forever

[@rileymcfadden75]

L3THAL IMPULS3 he definitely does. He rates so many shitty experimental artists but shits on Cudi’s better experimental albums. Only thing I don’t like ab melon lol

[@dankrobin4965]

He also didn't like this track when it came out as a single don't twist things

[@MrBeastknows]

It's because Cudi is corny as fuck. I mean he out here with some cringey ass lines. I mean his last album, there's a good bunch of songs I absolutely love, but even shit like Rose Golden with such a gorgeous chorus has him near-ruining it with a random, "the story of the chosen," that makes me cringe everytime. He makes a lot of really bad decisions, lyrically, but production-wise and delivery, he can be great as hell. He's one of the only rappers out I would support to have a ghost writer.

[@l3thalimpuls373]

Shane Benjamson I understand what you mean by the “cringy” part of Cudder but I still love that guys music, granted he makes some questionable decisions

[@l3thalimpuls373]

DankRobin I’m not twisting things, ik he didn’t like it before, but he kinda shit on kid cudi a little extra and in my opinion, I thought it was a pretty good verse
