Wale "Shine" Album Discussion Out now

[TheGOAT]

Did he write a love song to cocaine?

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

I'm cool on wale first album too, ambition my favorite

 

[TheGOAT]

Whats yall sales predictions?

 

[fortyacres]

yeah on first listen this is not his best work , he can do much better than this.

 

[lazypakman]

I rate the guy but took one look at that tracklist and walked away.

[soulfulcat]

He on the breakfast club now talking bout he pushed the album up bc he found out he had a scammer in his team and he got his hands on a ton of his music

 

[Sorrow_god]

This album is pure unadulterated TRASH, I had high hopes the 5th of the chosen five(Kendrick, Drake,Cole,Big sean and wale) would be able to muster up something great from the depths of his lyrical soul. Instead he takes this poppy ass white girl homosexual bullshit with niggas like G-FUCKING-EAZY as a feature! REAALLY NIGGA!

WALE YOU HAVE FAILED US TOO MANY TIMES AND AS A RESULT YOUR PLACE IN THE CHOSEN FEW HAS BEEN REBUKED. YOU WILL BE REPLACED WITH THE ENTIRE MIGOS TRIPLET AND BANISHED! I am sorry i must do this but wale really got me feeling like this

Begone wale and stop rapping because this is just disgusting. pathetic.

 

[Like Water]

I'm so G.damn tired of Wale putting out wack ass albums. Goofy niggas talkin bout TAAN like it was actually good. Smh. Niggas obviously ain't listen to the two Seinfeld mixtapes preceding it. Because if they did, they would've expected that album to be nothing less than classic.

This nigga has more talent than most of his peers that have positioned themselves better, and it's been subpar project after subpar project.

I'm through wit this nigga until he figures it out. This nigga is this generation's Fabolous, with way more emotions and whining. I'll stick to his mixtapes.

As much as I can't stand Wale I do believe that eventually he'll get to the level we always knew he was capable of. The conversation should be Kendrick, Drake, J.Cole and Wale. They literally all came up together at the same time.

I still have faith he can get a platinum album in his lifetime

Nah. Replace Wale with Krit or Joey Bada$$ at this point. I was bumping Wale mixtapes heavy the same time I was bumping Cole and Kendrick tapes but nowadays I don't even check for Wale because I can't remember the last project that moved me at all. Should I even download this one?

I feel like after all these years, I don't understand why Wale still doesn't get it smh. This should've been his concept album about his Nigerian roots, his beautiful daughter, his roller coaster music industry journey, or something. Instead it's just a bunch of music packaged together with a sell date. It's a formula, a basic ass formula he refuses to acknowledge because he whether have "radio hit" fame than build a solid discography. His talent should be celebrated, he's too old to still be this naive and have been in the game too long for this bullshit.

Didnt he do this on the album about nothing?

He did this on Ambition and AAN

 

[aneed123]
