Tear To Snow goes HARD.

The verses remind me of The Way I Am

it's good, but it's not knock madness to me.
knock madness to me is the original 2011-2012 recordings like Hop Madness and HopSimonSin etc. Wish they sounded more like that.

So far the album is really fucking choppy. Like, doesn't feel like an album. The change from Who's There to Tears To Snow was really bad. I was like "what the fuck?"

The transition from Old Friend to Still Got Love For You is a lot more drastic.


Not quite there yet.

My interest, that isImage

My eyes are stinging I'm that tired, I'll listen to the few remaining tracks tomorrow.

Ah, I gotcha haha. I'm tired myself and am only going to listen to the album once until I get my pre-order in the mail. Not going to pass full judgment on this yet, but I kinda agree with the guy who said it lacks the passion that Raw had right now.


I know most people on TR are not going to like this album, but I will.

It's decent to me as of right now, heading into the final couple tracks. Nothing too impressive or out of the ordinary. Hopsin is one heck of a rapper though, that's for sure.

I don't see the lack of passion honestly. Songs like Tears to Snow are like the opposite of lacking passion.

I'd even go as far as saying he sounds hungrier than on Raw on some songs.

Can't judge after one listen, couple of good songs and a couple of bad songs, gotta let it sink in for now and listen to the good quality.

But damn some of his "bad" hooks got so much potential to be good hooks, it feels like they're not finished :(

Edit: Caught in the Rain tho, best song IMO

This song is definitely as raw as it gets. No pun intended.

Maybe lacking passion is the wrong thing for me to say. Raw was one of the first albums that I was excited for where I loved every song on the first listen and just because I'm tired right now and listened to the album once I can't make fair judgment. The song where he's practically yelling the whole song was definitely raw as f*ck.

I'll get back to this thread later.
