    YG has an excellent album in both rhythms and lyrics, this album is better than Travis Scott.

    YG was once a great rapper, but now he suffers from how all his songs sound the same and generic. if her were to swish up the stye once in a while, it would be easier to listen to.

    1. 10 TIMES, skip this intro 0/10 2. BULLETPROOF ft. Jay 305, generic trash out from his studio 0/10 3. HANDGUN ft. A$AP Rocky, its really bad and i would never recommend this song to anyone 0/10 4.

    6. TOO COCKY, this one is the really bad version of BIG BANK 0/10
    7. BIG BANK ft. 2 Chainz, Big Sean & Nicki Minaj, this was the only good song on the album 8/10
    8. POWER ft. Ty Dolla $ign, i usually like Ty Dolla songs but this one was really bad 0/10

    15. BOMPTOWN FINEST, booorrriiiinnnngggg! jk its bad tho 0/10

    Only standout is BIG BANK

    Overall: 0.53 (rounded up to 1) this album would have been a 0 if Big Sean and Nicki didn't hop on BIG BANK. there verses were strait fire. i personally dislike YG's music anyways so if you don't like this review, ignore it and move on. this is just my opinion.    … Expand

    From production to rhymes, this has to be one of the most generic albums i have ever heard. Lack of ambition, lazy writing and repetitive flows make this album, the worst album i've heard this year. Offering us nothing when it comes to beat selection, and a staggering amount of lackluster rhymes, providing fans with no amount of depth whatsoever, I believe YG can't really get much worst

    I enjoyed the album, what I got is what I expected. Dope beats and cool ending to an album. I think for future albums he can at the least go outside of the west coast sound and try something different. But enjoyed it, Deeper Than Rap, Cocky, Suu Whoop, Handgun and Bomptown Finest my favorites.

    Stay Dangerous is an off-the-cuff chronicle of an artist who's gotten too big - at least in his mind--for his own good.

    A clutch of unapologetically hedonistic singles in 2017 kept the Bomptown rapper visible and also pointed toward the approach taken with his third proper album.

    A patchy album that will offer something for everyone in a streaming world but will disappoint those wanting a classic album.
