The good part is in disk 2. Beat-wise, this was a dud compared to "We Don't Trust You." But still... hip-hop production needs to step it up or step differently.

"Like That" has produced "7 Minute Drill," and since my last review, J.Cole has apologized for "7 Minute Drill." The rap game is a shambles. "Might Delete Later" is satire at this point, but we still review the crappy beats. It's hard to look any of the beats seriously as we await the Drake response to Kendrick diss while simultaneously listening to "Still Don't You," but I do it--with absolutely no mercy.. Check it out.

Aside from all the drama created by "Like That," this album's production is potent in various ways. There's an absolute army of hip-hop production talent that contribute to Metro's leadership, but even more, I think Metro is really finding his niche in collaborating with other producers and beatmakers. The production is far from 'dialed in.' It's measured, it's structured, creatively-intentioned, and potent. No more loops for Metro!

Not much to be said. This is one to be listened. Q is back, and the production was a delight--for the most part.

PART B of my beat review/reaction (REVACTION) to the second half of YEAT's "2093 (P2)" is here! Part B has my favorite beat.

I didn't want to like this punk, but in my first listen, I immediately became a fan of this man's very aggressive yet purposeful production style, via his latest, "2093 (& P2)," I explain why in Part A of the "2093" review. We review the beats, not the words.

A hip-hop music production toure de force from Yeezy--reminiscent of the collaborative production efforts of B.D.T.F. Most of all, it just sounds like Kanye. This first listen reaction, review does not credit his contributors, some of which, have been a part of the Ye collective since he rented out an apartment with Donda in Newark, NJ. Other than the big names initially mentioned--Timbaland, JPEGMAFIA, James Blake, LondonOnDaTrack--here's who we later found out were involved from a production standpoint: 88-Keys, No ID, FnZ, Anthony Kilhoffer, Chrishan, DJ Camper...

This podcast is about the beats. And these beats, are produced, entirely by The Alchemist and Hit-Boy--possibly two of my top ten hip-hop producers ever. I do not know who Corbett is, but he's a contributer. And although, we focus on beats, music production, and audio engineering on this podcast, Benny may be my favorite active rapper in the game, so there's a bias that's hard to ignore. However, with these standards come very high expectations. Find out if this album delivers on my most skeptical listen to date.

There is a great story behind the yellow curtain used for the cover of Lyrical Lemonade's "All is Yellow." The beats mostly adhere to commercial UMG Recordings, Inc guidelines, but there are some quiet gems in terms of production. Listen to my full pod!

Pretty crappy production with the exception of a few beats. STFU and listen to my review!
