    Future’s sophomore effort is significantly better than his debut album, but it is still a far cry from being any good. There are good tracks, such as “Blood, Sweat, Tears”, “I Won”, and “Move That Dope”, but then tracks like “My Momma” and “Covered N Money” are so bad that they ruin the good tracks. Overall, the production here is good, the features (in particular Andre 3000) work well,Future’s sophomore effort is significantly better than his debut album, but it is still a far cry from being any good.

    Future is one of the few true artist of Auto-Tune, and the emotional honesty lying behind trad-rap boasts bleeds from his words in a minor key and a pitch as subtly tremulous as a wobbling bottom lip. [Jun 2014, p.63]

    This album makes up for substance with slickness.

    Future stays true to himself and clearly shows where he stands. Even when he goes simple, there is an appeal, at least somewhere in there.
