Nardo Wick is back with another project, carrying some good ideas coupled with some bad ones. The Atlanta rapper and certified crashout idol seems to be trying his hand at some new sonic variety with ideas such as those in “Glitchin” and “Beatbox”, but as a generality the album is pretty bog-standard Atlanta rap.
The album kicks off with the aforementioned “Glitchin”, which I actually found quite interesting conceptually. Then we have “Hello”, which was alright, “Gangsta”, which also alright, and “I Don’t Think”, which was personally a standout track for me. There’s also a decent 21 Savage feature on “HBK”.
My primary issue with this album is that most of it isn’t really worth reviewing song-by-song. It’s just more of the same from Wick and a lot of the same sounds that you’d get from any other Atlanta artist. There is obviously some attempt to do something novel, like with “Beatbox”, but I feel like it was poorly executed and don’t fit Wick’s style. Then we have “Drew”, which was this garbage “Stan” ripoff with a sample that carried none of the finesse of the original. It’s literally like a 20 second clip of “Lost Boy” with zero editing or EQ. One of the songs comes with a predictably garbage Sexyy Red feature. I didn’t even like the track with Future.
For what it’s worth, I was bumping “I Don’t Think”, “Get On My Nerves”, and “Hot Boy” for a little bit, the latter of which has a solid Lil Baby feature. However, as a project, it’s not doing anything new or even doing that much very well, and so that’s why I’m feeling a light 3 on this one.
