    By no means whatsoever is Lil Pump lyrical or talented. His strength has always been in his ignorant, catchy bangers - a commodity that is in short supply on his debut album. it says a lot when the guest verses are by far the best parts of your debut album - Lil Wayne is a particularly prime example. Also, Zoom Zoom Zoom is the worst song I've listened to all year so far.

    All Lil Pump has to offer are catchy bangers, but this time he failed. The highlights had already been released and the energy that made Pump a hit didn't show up in the most part of the album. Many of the features didn't work and 40 minutes of Lil Pump seemed like an eternity.

    This is the epitome of what mainstream artists have turned into: just a bunch of nonsensical lyrics. I am aware that some mainstream songs have meanings behind them, but this is in the majority that don't. A good beat won't save it from the mess it is. As much as anime openings/endings get flack for being "for weebs" and K-Pop getting flack as well, at least their songs have meaning whileThis is the epitome of what mainstream artists have turned into: just a bunch of nonsensical lyrics.

    This Album is absolute garbage. Lil Pump is easily one of the worst rappers in the game, he has one of the worst bars, flow, and one of the worst rapping skills I have ever heard in my life, I thought his last album was terrible. His sophomore album is even worst. He does the same thing as he did in his previous project very boring, lazy bars, some hooks repeated over and over again,This Album is absolute garbage. Lil Pump is easily one of the worst rappers in the game, he has one of the worst bars, flow, and one of the worst rapping skills I have ever heard in my life, I thought his last album was terrible. His sophomore album is even worst. He does the same thing as he did in his previous project very boring, lazy bars, some hooks repeated over and over again, terrible rapping skills, terrible flows, and there are a lot of idiot bars. Like for example in the song "Vroom Vroom Vroom," he's making random noises like a one-year-old kid would make, which is so annoying. Even the features didn't do their jobs enough to help this album from failure, like in the song I love it ft Kanye West it sounded so cheesy, I didn't like the song when it heard it, and I still don't. The only guest on the Album that was good was Lil Wayne, that's it. Lil Pump does not take his music career very seriously, and he fails to improve from his last project.

    I've never heard this album but I will NEVER hear this album. I don't want to insult my ears. Lil Pump is one of the WORST rappers and WORST artists ever in the music industry. Horrible production, horrible album cover. This album is definitely a ripoff of Kanye West's The College Dropout. Lil Pump, or whatever his real name is, just stop making music. Get out of the music industry. Get lost.

    By no means is Pump lyrical or talented, but he is very catchy. The way he is able sustain his status in music is thanks to huge features, bragging one-liners and of course the generic raps about Gucci, Girls and Money. So why give this a 7? It’s worked out hasn’t it. People are listening to him and buying into his music, which is really all you can ask for.

    If you don’t take this album seriously then it’s not bad. Harverd Dropout is a fun album that’s the keyword fun. Some of the highlights are Racks on Racks, Too Much Ice, Multi Millionaire and ION.

    It's not like we were expecting anything new from him. Based on what he can do, this is the best album he has ever put out. However, it is not a good album. Do I even make sense?

    Lil Pumps latest album is much better than the trash that was "Lil Pump" but its by no means good. His flow has improved a lot and I can now tolerate his voice but this is bad.

    Harverd Dropout sounds more refined and slicker than its self-titled predecessor, but is all the worse for it.

    FAV TRACKS: NU UH, MULTI MILLIONAIRE, ESSKEETIT, OFF WHITE

    LEAST FAV TRACK: BE LIKE ME

    It was a good pretty good album as the first 9 or 10 songs were mostly good but the second half was lackluster especially vroom vroom vroom. If you listen to it lyrically or for meaning then you shouldn't be listening because this album is just a fun, stupid, party album and better than some of lil pumps earlier work such as Gucci Gang as he's evolved as an artist.

    While some of the songs on here are dumb fun, most tracks on Harverd Dropout are pretty lackluster. Pump's never been a lyricist, so I just don't pay attention to lyrics at all, other than some cringy bars. I've already forgotten what most of the songs sound like 3 months later. Best tracks are Be Like Me; Racks On Racks; Drug Addicts; Nu Uh; and Butterfly Doors

    Lil Pump at least has some talent in him. He has a rhythmic flow and catchy lyrics. The only problem is how he's inconsistent. Compare some of his early songs to the ones now. Lil Pump might not be a favored person in general, but it's gonna be sad if he were to die, possibly as sad as X's death.

    This is one of the more popular mumble rappers around right now. I got some of his songs he released back in 2017 when he was just coming on the scene on Soundcloud like Gucci Gang, D Rose, and Molly. His songs are usually kinda repetitive, agressive, with trap beats. This album doesn't really bring anything new to the table that's very impressive.

    One of the worst rappers of all time. Lil Pump is the type of guy who proves that he doesn't need talent to be famous.

    Though it's only a lean 40-minutes long, Harverd Dropout feels like it lasts forever, losing its shine quickly as Pump runs in place, futilely reaching for the personality that made him a star.

    Other than polished vocals and drastically better mixing, Lil Pump sounds the exact same as he did when he dropped Lil Pump; zooted on Xans, lean, and without a care in the world. The rapping is simple, the concepts are easy to grasp as he pretty much gets straight to the point on all 16 tracks (said point being the drugs and money he bathes in excessively).
