Jul 11, 2016The best rap project i have listened to in the last year. Wale has always been an underrated even though he consistently puts out classics like this. It is not just about the rhythm with him, The poetry is splendid.

Apr 22, 2015The album is great and Wale shows a lot of honesty in his music. He admits his fears, emotions, and what he wants to do within the industry. My favorite tracks are White Shoes and Pessimist, and I feel that this is his best work to date.

Apr 15, 2015DON'T LISTEN TO THE CRITICS. This is Wale's best album: great lyricism/content over great instrumentals. Wale is criminally underrated and this album is a very good effort. Its just as good if not better than IYRTITL and one of the best hip hop releases of the year so far.

Probably his best album. TAAN is a very underrated body of work. Definitely a lot better than anything JCole could ever dream of putting out.
Best songs: Girls On Drugs, God Smile, Glass Egg, Matrimony, Body, Pessimist, Middle Finger.
Lots of highlights from the album. 2nd best album of 2015 thus far behind the obvious TPAB. -

Apr 2, 2015The more I listen to this album, the more I like it. Wale, in my opinion, is way too underrated and I am finding the whole MMG sound (if you can call it that) kinda stagnant...so despite having parallels to mixtape of the same name, I am loving the general vibe of this album and to see Wale step outside the shadow of Rick Ross and Meek. A few clunkers, but the first track is straight FIRE!

Dec 22, 2015Although Wale's got so much to say, he often says it over the same tempo, and if it weren't for "The Girls on Drugs" (rescued from another Seinfeld-themed mixtape, Festivus) and a couple other kicking moments, the musical spectrum here would be narrow. Still, it's a minor complaint as The Album About Nothing is bigger, bolder, and better than expected.

Apr 21, 2015Wale uses Seinfeld's advice not just as a gimmick but as a jumping-off point.

Apr 7, 2015The soulful production, harnessing plenty of live instrumentals, mixes well with the lingering hints of MMG production.
