After I heard this song the first time, I had to call my dog into my room and give him a hug.
There are plenty of other great tracks here, but the best song on the entire album, and also probably the saddest song I’ve heard in my life, is “Nostalgia.” Damn the story told in this song absolutely sucks as a dog owner and lover of dogs myself, but it’s told so well that you can’t help but listen to it. One day I’m humming the Melody to “Lookin Back Now,” the next day I’m singing the hook to, “Pull Up.” Wake up the next morning, I’m rewinding verses on, “Until We Meet Again,” and, “The Formula.” I get off work, and find myself near tears listening to, “Nostalgia.” I mean, really, I’m really reaching for negatives here and I just can’t seem to find any. Not one! Upon my search of trying to find a track that was just filler and trying to drop the score, I kept finding myself singing different songs throughout the day. There’s not a song, in my opinion that I just don’t like.
While some of the songs go way harder than others, I feel confident in saying that there are no skippable songs to be found here. Rittz delivers 24 tracks (18 songs and 2 skits, and outro on the regular album, then 3 bonus cuts on this Google Play Edition version of the album). 12 is a nice solid number of songs, and usually there’s no room for filler after that number. Typically for me, I don’t like albums that have more than say, 12 tracks.
