Young Thug - Punk (October 15, 2021) • Page 2

Think Drake sounds good on that, better than he did on most of his own album.

 

This song got cut at the last minute smh need it on the deluxe

 

I like this but after 4-5 listens through, I still prefer Jeffrey and So Much Fun, personally.

 

he brought out Nate on snl good lord y’all that was amazing

 

Nah

 

It’s super good but the mix is pretty rough

 

yeah, there's a couple tracks here with questionable mixing for sure

Scoliosis is maybe the worst of them all tho

 

The mixing on scoliosis is so bad lol

 

Thug doesn’t miss. One of the year’s best

 

Melon gave it a 3

what a chump

 

What a dork

 

A 5 or 6 would’ve been more correct

 

This is at least an 8 for me. Right up there with BTG, B6, and Jeffery.

 

8-9 for me. Thug at his absolute best

 

his best since barter 6 easy

 

big disagree

I like this quite a bit, but would rank it fairly low amongst his discography personally

 

I feel like these are his most consistently personal lyrics... ever? Even a song like "Insure My Wrist" kind of goes in during the first verse.

This is the most I've liked a full project of his since JEFFERY / Slime Season 3 / I'm Up. If he chopped most of the back half (keep "Faces", "Droppin Jewels" and maybe "Hate The Game") and reordered it to 11-12 songs it'd be near the top of his discog for me.

 

Oh yeah if the filler was removed this is best project for sure. His song “writing” has come so far.

 

feels like (at least to me) that he might have actually written some bars for this

 

He has said he didn’t, I think his process just changed and he took a longer time to flesh out songs. Based on the Complex interview and the Breakfast Club interview. Really good interviews btw. Complex one is a great reqd and he goes in depth and opens up about a ton of shit over the years on The Breakfast Club. He even has a few lines on this album about not physically writing anything.

 

The best songs on here are just so so so good.

fifth day dead
faces
contagious
die slow
love you more
insure my wrist
droppin jewels
peepin out the window
stupid/asking
road rage
hate the game
day before

like good god these are some of his best songs period

 

I'd say top tier Thug projects are Jeffery and BTG, and then this one is the next tier down along with Barter 6. The best of this album is among his best material ever but there's quite a few songs I wouldn't mind losing

Hate the Game has serious hit potential and the Mac verse on Day Before was really great and refreshing to hear. Apparently it's one of the final things he ever recorded, just days before his passing (hence the title)

 

According to Thug, the song with Mac was called Day Before prior to his passing. The vibe was described by Thug as being like, yeah I’m poppin now even if the day before I wasn’t. Kinda like “it happened overnight”. Mac recording that song the “day before” his passing was purely coincidental. Pretty crazy.

 

wow

 

that verse made me so sad that I have only listened to it once but it was great
