So this album is not as consistently strong as The Lead, where every song was a banger. BUT I saw them at Brooklyn Paramount for the tour of this album, and my god it was one of the most flames shows I've ever seen. They were so so good and they could actually sing and dance all this stuff live. Minimal props, not gimmicks no tricks, just raw talent, hard bops, and killer dance moves. Something I don't like about the album is the weird like, subtly anti-woman pro-man vibes? Walk Like This is basically saying "my guy fucks me so good I walk funny." Like, don't play into the guy's ego right? At least not in public. And Get It Till I'm Gone is also just like, flaunting that this poor girl isn't gonna get any till I'm done with him? Why push that in this girl's face? Why not sing about how you have this guy hooked around your pinky instead? I feel like all the songs in The Lead were about not giving a damn about guys and putting them in their place, but this one feels more pick-me-girl. I still listen to this on repeat tho.
