Will this be the album....

when Jellyroll hits the big time?! I mean, what more could you ask for: it's a rap album at its core, of course, but rap, rock, blues, country, even a little r n b and pop are all fused in a way that is as far from being contrived as possible (i.e., not just a rapper trying anything to make himself stand out). He reached his own high bar set on prior albums and seems to be challenging the whole genre toup the collective musicianship ante.
Yes, I would like a 2020 version of "Hate goes on" or 1-2 songs with more of a gangster rap feel, but that's not who he is anymore, and I can respect that. Funny enough, although I like the singles releasd so far, they are far from being the best. "Rescue Me" may be my favorite, but I'm sure it's likely to change. Really like Brabo's verse, actually all the guests' contributions.
I WILL say that, although I like this album from top to bottom more, "Life" and "Creature"on the previous are my favorite 2020 Jellyroll songs. "Life" wow, that's gotta be one of the best songs, period, I've heard in years!
