One thing I find funny about the reverand interludes is Will doing an old man voice when he is old now  On the Reverand in And in this Corner it was much more of a shift in his voice!

Great to see some old faces posting (myself included) I'm really enjoying the album. Not a bad song on here, it plays out as a piece of art well. But yes First Love just seems a little out of place. I like it's concept and meaning. But as a song, not so much.

I am so happy with this album, it’s exceeded my expectations, been playing it all day.
 
The barbershop intro is the perfect start, that stuff needed to be said and it’s great to see Jeff on there. I’m enjoying “you looking for me”, it’s a middle of the road track for me.
”Rave in the wasteland” was a huge shock for me, seeing the title, it looked a little odd but when that beat started it was crazy. Sounds so different from anything he’s done, his flow is insane. Possibly my fave of the new, unreleased ones. 
 
Love “bulletproof” I think I heard it a while back when he did it live and I’ve been waiting to hear it properly. Definitely one of the better tracks of the album.
“Hard times” is great, I love RnB so the female vocalist sounds great to me. Only negative was Will wasn’t quite featured enough on it, but musically it’s beautiful.
Been playing “beautiful scars” lots the last few weeks, one of my top tracks of the album.
“Tantrum” has been out a while, I’ve seen most people love this one, I like it but it’s lower down on my list of tracks. Maybe I’ve overplayed it waiting on this album haha.
“First love” is my least favourite, the vocalist just isn’t my style and Wills flow just isn’t as good. I don’t dislike it so much but it’s just nowhere near as good as the rest of the album. Don’t know why they chose to release it.
Really like “make it look easy”, it’s grown on me a lot throughout the day. It’s almost like big Willie style vibes. Such a nice, chill, fun song.
I’ve always really liked “you can make it”. It came out when I was coming to the end of a tough couple of years, so it’s a special song to me.
I’ve always really enjoyed “work of art” too. Being the second song out made me realise we were gonna get some great music out of Will after 20 years.
Overall, love it. I think it’s perfect to come out with music like this after recent years. I’m ok with the swearing, he’s no longer got his squeaky clean image so he may as well haha. I’m hoping the next chapter/album has more fun, upbeat songs. But as the first one back, it’s just right.
 

This is a solid album. Bulletproof is an absolute banger.  Tantrum, too. I also really like Rave, Scars, Hard Times, and You Can Make It... The intro is mildly amusing, but for me, it’s a track to experience as part of the full album rather than something I’d play on its own. That said—unlike most on this forum—I actually like First Love.
Overall, I’m really enjoying this more aggressive, direct evolution of WS's music… and I’m about to cue up Bulletproof again! For me this is WS’s best release since Willennium.  It's obviously very different, but it reflects well where he is in life—just as that album did.  It's grown up and gritty.

Great to some of the old heads returning to the forum! 
Make It Look easy is also really catchy! 

His flow on Hard Times reminds me of his Born to Reign era. Like it a lot. But my favorite song is still Beautiful Scars. I hope he will have more tracks with Jeff on his next "Season"

Found a way to log back in to my original account and so fun to see everyone hyped. I have to say, I can’t stop playing the intro barbershop - straight up I think I can beat Mike Tyson vibes. Been giving the whole record a couple plays so far. Definitely have three or four favs and trying to get a handle on the rest.

Taking it Back

Hey guys, just thought you'd like to celebrate my one year anniversary on the JJFP board!
 

Fair play on the effort on finding your old post.

Just come out of the film. Loved it. Better than the last film for sure and for the most part I enjoyed that. Martin and Will with the great chemistry as always.

Looking Fly

You’ve gotta move with the times Ted. Everything evolves to cater to a current audiences preferences. It’s not ignorance, it’s just not what they like or have even heard. If anything the older heads who don’t even attempt to listen to new school stuff before branding it trash, are the ignorant ones. 

Nail on the head.
His career buzz wasn’t even highest in the 90s. FPOBA has been appreciated more since it wrapped, 96 is where his career took off. Then he had a flawless, bankable period through 2000-2008, where if his name was attached to a project it went ballistic.

Come on, man. Enjoy it. You've got six posts with negativity, life is too beautiful for that. I'll also point out that those artists he has collaborated with in the past were not of his era either, with the exception of Biz or Slick Rick and a handful of others. He's collaborated with people outside his norm throughout his career and I can't complain about this choice and the messege. Let Will be... different.
Dope track.

I like the song he still got it but obviously this is the first time logic is mentioned on this board so I know most jjfp fans rather see him keep it classic although the song sounds like a home base song

My uncle skip is officially out of icu and in a regular room now!

Good Stuff Man, Awesome you'll get to catch up with Jeff again. Tim Martin will be over there by then as well, so will have to let him know.

Loving the hype for this. Good time to be a JJFP fan. Yes Jeff needs to get on board. But the hype train is pulling in.

Best one in a while!
