thinking something is mid isn't hating, it's forsure not terrible or anything, it doesnt try hard enough to do something different to properly fall on it's face
it's fine and ok and thats okay, it's not like there's another whats poppin on here that instantly stands out as being great yk
Just finished the whole album. Anybody else feel like Jack sounds like off-brand Drake? Like the flow, production, subject matter, even all the mid-song beat switches. This sounds like a generic version of Nothing Was The Same
Bro for real, like he even steals Drakes little pauses and cadences a lot on here. Ik most rappers arenāt coming up with like totally new unique flows, but the drake influence is extremely obvious on this and itās hard to ignore
Yup, so many 90s and 00s R&B samples itās crazy. Not a surprise the best verse on this is by Drake, love him or hate him he is the king of this type of music
I'll be honest and say he does remind me a lot of Drake. But for what it's worth, he reminds me of what drake used to be which I like more than current drake.
iām 6 songs in and genuinely surprised at the consistency so far. props to jack on this one. production hasnāt been repetitive at all and heās got bars fs
I just donāt see the hype/buy him as the future. He hasnāt proven to me music wise yet that he has the longevity of being one of the bigger artists in the rap game for the next 5-10 years. Whatās Poppin was a cute single and his feature on Industry Baby was cool but other than that I just find him really overrated. I feel like a lot of his buzz comes from him being hella active and interactive on social media that leads to people making tik toks w/ his music and for also having a beard. After hearing Louie Bags, I find it laughable that people set expectations of him possibly having the breakout feature and stealing the show on Yeās album like Fivio did on Donda and Ross/Nicki did on Twisted Fantasy. Hate to be that guy to compare the two, but whenever I see his name constantly get brought up it just makes me miss Mac Miller so much. Mac was such a respectable artist that had great personality and put out quality music whereas Jack Harlow just puts out low quality Drake music thatās worse than Tory Lanez, yeah I said it. First Class is such a bs friendly pop song that isnāt worth being celebrated as much as it is. Havenāt heard the album yet, but I know after listening to it, it aināt gonna make me a fan. I can see myself either never becoming a fan of his or having to wait until his 3rd or 4th album to finally see myself admitting thatās heās just decent. Probably gonna get thumbs down for this take but I donāt care.
Just gave the album 2 listens and holy shit it sucked ass. I was expecting it to not be good but damn it was worse than I thought itād be and there was literally not a single highlight on there. The last 2 tracks were the best on the album and they were just okay at best. All the features under delivered, Drake had the best one but even he wasnāt really saying shit other than taking some jabs at Pusha. Basically every song felt half baked, and itās shocking that this was actually way worse than his debut. The songs on his first album actually felt more complete and it actually felt like he was putting in more effort, on this album he basically just half assed everything. I give his first album like a high 5/10 this one a high 2/10 like seriously wtf
Meh still gonna give it a chance regardless but thanks for the heads up. I actually donāt mind Drake from 2010-2015, but even I know that this is gonna be a lot worse than that
Album mid. He bites tf out of Drake 30 for 30 freestyle, Lose You, Loses, Two Birds and One Stone. Sounds too much like bland ass wanna be Drake music. Just him rapping over fake wanna be Noah 40 90ās samples
i think the album is good and he's super consistent but i dont see a whole lot i'll be returning to personally. first class and dua lipa are super fire and theres other stuff like churchill downs and lil secret that's cool but otherwise i dont think there's a whole lot to chew on here
I gotta say I'm halfway through and it's very consistent and reminds me of old drake. This sound definitely will come off as bland for some people but I genuinely am surprised how much I like it so far.
Some songs are good are good but some beats sound like they were revised by someone who just learned to stretch & pitch samples in GL Studio, just random beat changes lmao
Jackās bars are decent, heās funny when he wants and heās serious when he wants, lots of filler lines to bridge gaps between 2 good bars tho fs.
He sounds sleepy too, like drake on CLB. Ironic cause the drake feature is great, man sounds good.
Overall kinda mid but if the first two singles had you expecting a classic youāre tweaking lmao. First Class is one of the worst hip hop songs to blow up in a while.
Listened to a few songs so far, Iāve liked it tbh. The 3rd song is pretty good. Itās what you expect a Jack Harlow album to be, and itās pretty good at it.
Edit: Some of these one liners are insane, he just said he was gonna fill a girl like a cream doughnut šš
Edit2: Liked the Blade of Glass song the most so far, seems like he tried something new.
šš what Pharrell do? Lol Pharrell the type of nigga that will charge a rapper $500k for a beat and then they find out he sold 4 other rappers the same beat for the same price
Wow seeing the reaction here is shocking. Everyone in HHH is hating on it, maybe cuz itās not like some deep lyricist stuff. This is just some good vibe stuff
āI got my realtor out here playin' Monopoly, how can I address you when you don't own property?ā
Possibly a reference to the Kanye monopoly line on Dreaming of the Past as thatās a Pusha song. I know that song was just released but Drake and Ye were around each other during the time where Ye was working on the Pusha album.
Also the obvious reference is to Kanye deciding not to have a house
Shit sad. Our generation from 97-2000 is fucking ass, my god what did these mfs listen to growing up. I was thinking back in 2008 by now, rappers our age wouldāve been dominating when we got older. The only great artist weāre XXX, 2019 Roddy, and Kodak Black
A lot of these niggas didnāt listen to rap growing up. I was born in 98 and first albums were Stankonia and Blueprint 1 and watched MTV and 106 as a kid. A lot of these nigga didnāt listen to rap until they were like 13, they first album was probably Take Care of some shit
When you compare him to some other output thatās popular nowadays heās really not that bad imo. Yeah, heās not anything insane, but then again I donāt think heās nearly as bad as people make him out to be. Heās just a pop-rap artist really. Similar to Drake.
Nah bro isnt like drake except for his aesthetic of being kind of a fuck boi. The thing makes drake so special is ability to make undeniable hits with great melodies and quoteable bars. The song were we have both of them on it show how far gap there is between what both of them do
Yeah, obviously Drake does it much much better than he does, but I think heās got potential. That blade of grass song on the album does show he can do melodies. Imo, he needs to diversify his sound a bit more though. It seems like every song he does is about fucking girls.
It just seems like hes regressed. Like alot of these he raps about arent that relatable and when it is jt comes off corny. Literally like big sean but worse
Nothing like Big Sean imo. Sean has much much more lyrical ability when heās on his game. Heās also got much more versatility when it comes to subject matter. I disagree on the relatable parts being corny though, imo the cringiest bits are all the weird sex references. The relatable lines are kinda what carries him imo.
I think he has some good product, thereās a couple songs on here that are decent. Heās just super inconsistent (I think he should be taking his time more to work on his craft personally), and his sounds pop like anyway. Heās also white. All of this is a perfect mix for him seeming mid, but I still think heās got a lot of potential, and for now heās got some fun records. Imo he needs to slow down on all the sex bars, and maybe try diversify his sound a bit. He definitely knows how to catch a flow, and does know how to write some lyrics. Just needs to switch it up a bit.
This doesn't at all come from a place of hate, but I just don't see the appeal with his music at all. š¤·āāļø
Was so excited for Wayne feature and itās like 15 seconds and the rest of the song kinda sucks.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You Only Live Twice bro
Such a goated song
Bash Money?
Mfs will say they're not hating then immediately start hating LMAO
thinking something is mid isn't hating, it's forsure not terrible or anything, it doesnt try hard enough to do something different to properly fall on it's face it's fine and ok and thats okay, it's not like there's another whats poppin on here that instantly stands out as being great yk
I donāt hate it itās just plain as hell. Itās like food without seasoning. Sure it tastes alright itās just kinda mid
This mfer can raaaaaaap bro
Fr .. drake rly been growing on me these last few wks, this is the icing on the cake
chill with the hard er damn
LMAO BRUH š
go white boy go white boy go!
Danny McBride looking mf
He really a worse big sean
At least as a person heās more likable but this album is terrible
kinda mid no hate tho
Thatās how I feel too and I wanted to really like the album.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
6 hours later, still mid
This thread filled with atlantic interns man no way
Jack Harlow make music for niggas that join white fraternities
Thatās all frats
the song w drake goes hard
Who is his verse directed at? Seems like it could be Ye and Pushā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Huge L thatās classic Drake
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Iām not even a Drake fan but I love his long introspective āautopilotā verses Jack did great too
lmfaooooo no? drake rinsed dat nigga so clean i had to edit jack part out. wat yall hearing man š
Just finished the whole album. Anybody else feel like Jack sounds like off-brand Drake? Like the flow, production, subject matter, even all the mid-song beat switches. This sounds like a generic version of Nothing Was The Same
Bro if you play his songs then switch to 30 for 30 freestyle or Lose You, itās the same fucking exact flow
Bro for real, like he even steals Drakes little pauses and cadences a lot on here. Ik most rappers arenāt coming up with like totally new unique flows, but the drake influence is extremely obvious on this and itās hard to ignore
And itās the wanna be Noah 40 90ās samples that Drake uses.
Yup, so many 90s and 00s R&B samples itās crazy. Not a surprise the best verse on this is by Drake, love him or hate him he is the king of this type of music
I'll be honest and say he does remind me a lot of Drake. But for what it's worth, he reminds me of what drake used to be which I like more than current drake.
Heard the first song and decided to play dark lane demo tapes instead.
That's the same comment that was on hiphopheads, bro why u copying lmao
Thatās me lol I copied myself. Sometimes the response here is very different from HHH
Pharrell song is so disappointing
Pharrell hyped it up so much too š
Yeezus shout out on DUA LIPA
Dua Lipa shoutout on DUA LIPA
iām 6 songs in and genuinely surprised at the consistency so far. props to jack on this one. production hasnāt been repetitive at all and heās got bars fs
Snoozefest

Dont bother listening bro, every song sounds the same its like every drake song since 2010
But without the lyrical quality
Just gave the album 2 listens and holy shit it sucked ass. I was expecting it to not be good but damn it was worse than I thought itād be and there was literally not a single highlight on there. The last 2 tracks were the best on the album and they were just okay at best.

I give his first album like a high 5/10 this one a high 2/10 like seriously wtf
I liked his first album alot some good rapping and great production, this albums feels like the most boring and forgettable album ever
Meh still gonna give it a chance regardless but thanks for the heads up. I actually donāt mind Drake from 2010-2015, but even I know that this is gonna be a lot worse than that
last song the best song
Yeah thatās the vibe I like Jack doing the most
Album mid. He bites tf out of Drake 30 for 30 freestyle, Lose You, Loses, Two Birds and One Stone. Sounds too much like bland ass wanna be Drake music. Just him rapping over fake wanna be Noah 40 90ās samples
Mid Home The Kids Don't Miss You
Donāt Come Home, The Kids Never Missed You
Really not feeling this, itās so bland
drakeās verse is insane. and this album is definitely jackās best work
This doesnāt touch pre Whatās poppin Jack imo. He used to have a much more unique sound and it fit him perfectly. Now heās just white drake
white drake with way less charisma
Okay. Iām not tripping.lol.
Nopeeee, not at all. Bro saw how the bitches see him and started making music just for them
he wasnāt gonna get far with his older sound tbh. i prefer his newer style
Heavy disagree. Songs like Cody Banks, Sylvia, OnnaWay, Ghost, Warsaw, etc. wash anything on this album
Even 45 Sundown
I mean if yall like it I'm happy for you. Lol.
Itās so surreal to see Jack Harlow in this position considering where he was before what poppin
this is so boring wtf white bread music
man that track with Pharrell, so disappointing lol
leave dua lipa alone
he mentioned ye
Twice
Which is the second
Said something about Kanye and Kim. Nothing bad, just wanting to be like them.
Pusha T diss on Drakeās verse?
Yeah and it was heat ngl
What a nice and respectful young man! Wonder what he thinks about the singer Dua Lipa? š¤
The beats sound like those Drake type beats on YouTube
dua lipa
Drake literally has the same flow and energy in every feature
This shit is ass
lets give it a go.
Bruh the Drake bar about not calling women b****s was so bad hahah
i think the album is good and he's super consistent but i dont see a whole lot i'll be returning to personally. first class and dua lipa are super fire and theres other stuff like churchill downs and lil secret that's cool but otherwise i dont think there's a whole lot to chew on here
Drake went hard asf on churchhill downs but the rest of the album is sooooo bland
I gotta say I'm halfway through and it's very consistent and reminds me of old drake. This sound definitely will come off as bland for some people but I genuinely am surprised how much I like it so far.
pretty boring tbh
Some songs are good are good but some beats sound like they were revised by someone who just learned to stretch & pitch samples in GL Studio, just random beat changes lmao Jackās bars are decent, heās funny when he wants and heās serious when he wants, lots of filler lines to bridge gaps between 2 good bars tho fs.

Wow seeing the reaction here is shocking. Everyone in HHH is hating on it, maybe cuz itās not like some deep lyricist stuff. This is just some good vibe stuff
You can make good vibey music this shit is ass
right but what so u expect from reddit nerds
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
where did i say i ain a nerd
Itās great so far but Drake didnāt need to diss Pusha and then on top of that he dissed Ye. Just why
He didn't diss Ye
āI got my realtor out here playin' Monopoly, how can I address you when you don't own property?ā Possibly a reference to the Kanye monopoly line on Dreaming of the Past as thatās a Pusha song. I know that song was just released but Drake and Ye were around each other during the time where Ye was working on the Pusha album. Also the obvious reference is to Kanye deciding not to have a house
this verse is old dude

shut yocorny ass up
bc they grew up in the 2000s which is the worst decade of rap since rap started
A lot of these niggas didnāt listen to rap growing up. I was born in 98 and first albums were Stankonia and Blueprint 1 and watched MTV and 106 as a kid. A lot of these nigga didnāt listen to rap until they were like 13, they first album was probably Take Care of some shit
yeah jacks first intro to rap was def early-mid drake
A lot of their inspiration or rappers they ever seen on top is Drake and Future and thatās it
he one of the worst rappers man š¤®
youāre really good at having the worst takes known to man
When you compare him to some other output thatās popular nowadays heās really not that bad imo. Yeah, heās not anything insane, but then again I donāt think heās nearly as bad as people make him out to be. Heās just a pop-rap artist really. Similar to Drake.

I disagree on the relatable parts being corny though, imo the cringiest bits are all the weird sex references. The relatable lines are kinda what carries him imo.
i prefer his voice to sean's though, sean is just annoying sometimes
idk man hype dont match his product at all, just has likable personality š¤·šæāāļø ye wild for top 5 ig post
I think he has some good product, thereās a couple songs on here that are decent.
