He got criticized so much for his last album that going in that direction was actually good for him career wise….not saying this album isn’t from the heart…but it did help his career as well because he’s been getting alot of negative reviews on his last one…this one is more critic friendly he just takes a tried & true formula & barely adds anything to it…flow is monotone as ever….gang gang gang was the only risk he took IMO it was a decent track just felt out of place…to me this guy has shown multiple times he can rap…that hasn’t been my problem with him….the production feels uninspired…his last 2 albums felt very Drake & Big Sean inspired….this one feels Kanye J Cole inspired….not once aesthetically has he brought a new style….which is fine not every artist has to re-invent the wheel….problem is…lyrically he’s not that interesting either…or even flow wise….he’s just ok to me…pleasant when it’s on but I don’t go out of my way to listen to his stuff…to me there’s just a lack of originality overall

What I need for Jack Harlow to understand is that he needs to find other sounds that are unique to him. And while it's cool that he's rapping better, he sounds like he's got more of a fire lit under his ass this time around, I think he should catch up a bit more differently and find certain sounds that he connects with that aren't just Kanye or Drake. But I mean, I would rather that Jack play catch up rather than let his momentum be left in the dust. I much prefer this album over Come Home The Kids Miss You.

[@fkinel-wu7ev]

That's what I'm saying,in my opinion Jack Harlow is trying way too hard to replicate what G-Eazy did in 2014/2017.The only reason why I feel like he gets more respect than G-Eazy in hip hop is simply because he has a funny/charismatic personality.They also have the similarity that they both rep the town they were born in.

[@lazerxrr]

Ngl he always been sounding like this tho in his old albums. He prolly jus wanted a chill album for this one rather than variety

[@judekaraki1650]

i dont get it bruh. hes either emulating drake in flow, emulating kanye in production, or emulating cole in story telling. what part of this was emulation? the soul sampled beats? the flow that isnt particularly reminiscent of anyone specific? the fact that he actually tried to talk about interesting topics and tell them from multiple perspectives? you guys treat jack the exact opposite way shawn thinks people treat him. if an upcoming black artist released this project you wouldn't hear a soul sample and say hes "emulating" anyone. you would say hes "kanye inspired" at most, but since its him, any similarity to other artists is automatically negative.

I personally found the flows, bars and rhymes just so much more interesting and Harlow just sounded way more in-tune with the production in this album than in CHTKMY (not even mentioning the 'change' in personality and direction which you didn't acknowledge and I suppose I understand) I'll say that I already liked Harlow before, even those radio tracks from his 2 studio albums so there's some bias on my part, but I'm really surprised to see how you'd say that "there's no difference" (like what?!?!?!?) Totally understand you not vibing with this album but to say that there was no improvement just feels like pure hating I'm sorry

[@Shuffffff]

He didn't improve lyrically, he went from rapping mediocre bars about fuck boy shit to rapping mediocre bars about his story and his drive. Just because he finally is talking about something on a better beat selection doesn't make this album great. It's a 5 or 6 outta 10.

[@Natak222]

Sounds like you’re essentially asking if it’s ok to drop a low effort album

[@bigol9223]

I like the concept he was going for with a handful of short tracks where he just speaks on topics that are on his mind and isn't trying to just continue the radio star vibe. With that said I still think one of the biggest problems he has as an artist is really finding a way to express anything besides the most basic concept and observations. A couple of these tracks felt like he *wanted* to really say something but really didn't get anywhere. Notably on the intro track, he essentially describes himself, and says "common ground isn't that common" ..... what point is he trying to make, aside from exactly what Shawn said here- that he's trying to be like "hey black people I get it" but has nothing to say aside from that? If he, like other white hip hop types that do that, feels that he can't say anything more than what he's echoing from black people because he feels it's not his place...why even make the song? And if thats not how he feels...again what is the point other than just trying to signal that he's "one of the good ones"

[@Flameville]

@@Natak222 well I think it isn’t fair to expect someone to become philosophical when they decide to tackle topics personal to them for an album. Jack kinda set this up with the first words he said on common ground. These are just things on his mind. He’s not gonna circle around a thousand entendres like Kendrick and doesn’t quite have the ability to expand on these the way other more mature artist have. However he’s allowed to just vent what’s on his mind about himself and his insecurities, calling that low effort just shits on the vulnerability it took to write some of the songs and the topics. What do you think?

For a 24 Yr old white rapper who isn’t trying to emulate Eminem or Post Malone and is instead trying to actually be the next up like a Drake or Cole I respect it and I think this album is a good return to form. I get everyone has an opinion and if you truly hate it sure but I don’t think a critic should just judge off a first listen and go based off a clear distaste for an artist.
