[Take Me Apart]

WLR was such a massive downgrade from Die Lit and his mixtapes.

 

At least uzi kept it consistent and gave us what was supposed to be given

[SLIME]

I enjoy EA for being colorful and fun, but WLR - that’s my baby.

[confide in me]

WLR was my top album of 2021

[McNulty]

Eternal Atake for all

[Kayseri Mantisi]

WLR literally changed the sound of mainstream and underground rap, one of the most influential albums of recent time, and it's his own Yeezus. EA didn't live up to hype and aged like milk. It's leaks (EA v1 songs) was better than the album. Anyone who says EA is better here probably listened to these albums only once and or a tasteless gay. Uzi can never put out something as experimental and as influential as WLR. WLR caused many new rappers to born (Yeat, Ken Carson, etc) just like how Young Thug did back in the day. Also, WLR and Die Lit are both masterpieces and there's 100% not a downgrade in the sound. WLR was hated the week/month it dropped on Twitter by the locals, but even those people call it a masterpiece now.

 

“OK, sure, Whole Lotta Red came out at the end of 2020. On Christmas Day, to be exact. But the week between its release and the start of this year is irrelevant when you think of what a seismic shift the album represents. Carti stakes ground in the current generation’s sonic sensibility and delivers one of the most forward-thinking rap records since Kanye West’s Yeezus. “That’s my job as of right now. This sound is something that’s going to be regular and relevant in the future,” he told Rolling Stone earlier this year. “That’s just part of creating something new. If this is something that people accept right away, how different is it?” He was right. The album’s fingerprints are all over everything we heard in 2021.”
