so damn hard to see

This album has grown on me more each time I listen to it, but it has some things that bother me every time.

As the first album he released after his contract with 88rising, I feel like he's still taking off his handcuffs.

A good half of the album feels to me like recycled beats from Smithereens/Ballads 1 just to release something "new", and don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that these songs are bad, just, uninspired.
But the other half, give me hope, he shows a lot of potential on tracks like Last of a Dying Breed, LOVE YOU LESS, Piece of You (with Giveon), just to name a few, it's clear how careful he was with choosing the feats, he chose them very well, and although I don't like Past Won't Leave My Bed too much his singing in this track is absolutely amazing.

And even though I called half of the album uninspired, this record has been growing on me, I just like the way he makes music, but even when enjoying a song in this album I still get this weird feeling of something missing.

Overall, I'm happy to see that he's back after almost 4 years of him being radio silent, this album could be much, much better but I'm not mad at this, just a bit disappointed.
