    This album shows just why Big Boi should be considered one of the greatest of all time by any serious rap fan. This dude has been in the game since 1994 and is still releasing high quality albums with incredible production, great features, and of course impeccable verses from Big himself. Personal highlights for me are Kill Jill, which has one of the most original beats I've ever heard,This album shows just why Big Boi should be considered one of the greatest of all time by any serious rap fan. This dude has been in the game since 1994 and is still releasing high quality albums with incredible production, great features, and of course impeccable verses from Big himself. Personal highlights for me are Kill Jill, which has one of the most original beats I've ever heard, All Night, which is incredibly catchy, Freakanomics, which again has a really infectious beat, and the closer, Follow Deez, which is a dream come true for me as a huge fan of Curren$y. Big Boi has once again shown us that he is never satisfied with resting on his laurels, and that he has probably the best ear for beats of any rapper ever.… Expand

    “In The South” is a mash-up with Gucci Mane and Pimp C that could’ve snuck on the back end of a posthumous UGK set. [Sep 2017, p.62]

    Likely as clean as you have ever heard it, Big’s flow is the glue that holds an otherwise disjointed project together with cadences that kick the songs into hyperdrive, cement his versatility, and prove that he and the Organized Noize production team--the guys that built The Dungeon and the bulk of the joints on this album-- might be close to returning to form. Their indecision about the creative direction of the project, however, takes away from the overall quality of the release.

    While there are moments on Boomiverse that reminds you of who you’re listening to, the lows are painful and distracting, to say the least. Weak production and terrible hooks drown out the enjoyable moments of the supposed intergalactic trip.
