Songs such as "Bailan" and "OG Kush Diet" contain very sunny, upbeat beats, while others like "Blue Cheese" and "Sleep When U Die" continue the dark and moody atmosphere set by the singles. While singles like "Good Drank" and "4 AM" signaled this album would take a darker and more psychedelic approach to trap, it still contains a sense of variety throughout.

Oh and I know this will produce mega hits for the club. Whether 2 Chainz keeps going in this upward spiral or not, this will be the album he will be remembered for.
I never really loved the trap genre, but this album is without a doubt the best album within it. This might be the most 2017 sounding album of 2017 alongside Gorillaz 'Humanz'. Sure its not Kendrick Lamar level, but its a classic no doubt. I never thought I'd say this, but it is definitely a hip hop classic. 2 Chainz uses much more vocabulary in his verses than youd expect but he does maintain his silly sometimes nonsense rhymes in a good way.
The entire album is consistent like a concept album. His previous albums were OK at best but nothing that would hold a legacy for him years from now. I didn't dislike him, but I wasn't a fan either. His previous albums were OK at best but nothing I used to think 2 Chainz was just silly.
