Project is a bit strange. Dude can rap but I cant help but think he’s either fairly new to this rap shit or he started young and no ones ever given him enough reason to get better, including himself. Since the cover is him rapping at a young age Im leaning towards the second choice. He has moments of fluidity, but then has moments where hes stretching rhymes awkardly or sometimes just trying things with his delivery that don’t necessarily work because his cadences and overconfidence doesnt change. The production on here has a great variety, you can tell a complete album was the goal. Pacing is solid, and the features mostly save him and the songs. Theres allot of tracks, with allot of small things that just take away from this experience. I would pass, but the potential is here for sure.
