This album isn't as definitive as LiveLoveA$AP but it's good and slaps through the whole project. However, it is definitive of the year 2013 and is memorable with nostalgia partying. The beats are what is most memorable about this project.

good follow up to livelove, not as good imo but i love the atmospheric beats

I had to think long and hard about this one. The beginning of this album is really mediocre. Mostly just A$AP rapping about the same things every rapper raps about (I’m so awesome, all the ladies love me etc.), which isn’t necessarily a bad thing provided the music is good, which it isn’t. I mean, it’s alright, not bad, but not great. Then the middle part of the album shows up and it gets good, mostly because it features other people, specifically, Kendrick Lamar. Most of the featured rappers do quite a good job and the music seems to get better with others featured in it. Thus I came to the conclusion that A$AP by himself is ok, but with other people, he does just fine. Oddly, the best song on the album is a pairing I would’ve never picked out, A$AP and Skrillex. Weird right?

Can i quote the last person? It's disappointing with a couple of salvagable songs near the end, "f!@#king problems" and "1train", both coincidentally featuring many guests.

Disappointing album, the second half does improve.But overall poor.

This is an album filled with really good tracks and tracks that are just downright terrible. I hate saying this (being a big fan of his live love mixtape) but there seem to be more downsides than upsides to this project. Great tracks: are: The title track, 1train, and suddenly. The somewhat decent tracks: Goldie, PMW, F**kin Problems. Every other track on this album is straight up garbage, especially wild for the night and fashion killa. I have no clue what A$ap is even thinking when he releases these deep 'suicidal' tracks, It almost seems like hes trying to prove himself as a lyrical rapper which he is in no way at all. A$ap Rocky definetly failed by trying to bring more than he could offer. I'll give this a 55 because there are 3 really great tracks on here.

85 seems about right. There are some cringe worthy moments on this album, like Wild for the Night. Also, there are numerous times where Asap takes a trip to Tyler-town with a perfectly good song ruined by his low pitched bull. LVL is a great example of this. Things are going great, Asap's flow is crazy awesome in the middle of the track and then that low pitched UHHHHHNH comes in a blows the whole thing up. However, for all the little faults on the album, the last third of the album is really really good. As previously mentioned, 1 Train is a massive work. I don't know if I've felt synergy this good since classic Wu-Tang. Danger Mouse (my boy) shows the world again why he's one of the greatest producers alive with his delicious landscape in Phoenix. Finally, the closer Suddenly is brilliantly entertaining and haunting at the same time.

All in all, a good experience and Asap definitely has a new fan he didn't have last year, but the clear difference between an album like this and say Good Kid MADD City is the extremely obvious and vulnerable weak spots.

Great beats and amazing guest spots on the track 1 Train.
