To date he has released two full length albums, mixtape and has had a large number of features on other rappers songs. Rocky decided to drop his new album titled At.Long.Last.A$AP early, which seems to be the "In Thing" these days. He has definitely turned down a bit more on this one and gone for a more trippy sound.
Things I liked:
- Wide vocabulary when it came to lyrics.
- Clean and crisp production.
- Variety of instrumentals crossing many genres, not just rap.
- Good flow of songs and tracks fitted in the right places.
- Impressive list of features.
- Great artwork (Tribute to A$AP Yams)
Things I didn't like:
- Repetitive beats/instrumentals.
- Repetitive lyrics
- Songs were too long and could have been cut shorter.
- Kanye West feature was pointless and featured really terrible lyrics that did not fit with the song theme.
- Too many songs: while it was good to see 18 songs, at least 5 felt like pointless fillers. If Rocky cut out those fillers it would be a better listen.
Final Thoughts
Do I like the album? Yes, its a good follow up to Long.Live.A$AP.
Would I listen to the full album again? No, but I do have a handful of songs that will be on repeat (the first half of the album). Fans will be impressed and will most likely enjoy the songs. I feel that Rocky should have made more "Bangers" because that is where he shines, there are just too many chilled songs which end up leaving you bored.
