Early morning surprise! I recorded this reaction yesterday due to family coming in this weekend.

Also be aware that it takes me quite a while to warm up to the album, so if you're a huge fan of SOS, please be patient with ol' Bob. Enjoy!

CRASH

Now that the honeymoon phase is over, this album is way too long and overall not as memorable as her debut. Btw listen to the black panther soundtrack.

love this album! Definitely not on my first listen. I felt like that front middle run was just a bit too boring and similar and didn’t really stand out. but now it have some of my favorite tracks on it. I can see why people say it’s too long, but i really think this album has a little bit of everything. And considering this is most likely her last album ever, if not for a very very long time, I feel like she just wanted her fans to have a lot of music before she left.

I'll echo what most of the comments are saying about this album. It's got some great tracks, but overall it's a bloated album. I haven't gone back to it in over a month. Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo gotta be the next TDE album you do. I think you would absolutely love Zay

Also I think you're take aways are spot on. I feel this album is a little bloated and the sequencing isn't great either. If she cut a quarter of the songs off and rearranged it a little it would be solid.

Phoebe named her first album "Stranger in the Alps" after the censored-for-cable line from The Big Lebowski (https://youtu.be/LCcKBcZzGdA), so she's a fan.

Interested to hear your thoughts. As a huge fan of her previous albums, Im not a huge fan of this album. Although there are a handful of awesome tracks like the Pheobe bridgers song

being a 22 year-old woman still grieving a 6 month relationship that ended a year and a half ago i identify a lot to this album lmao. the repetion in the first 2/3 third of the album is accurate, it’s me boring all of my friends over this heartbreak for a year. the awareness and at the same time self-inflicted disrespect shown in the lyrics when she mentions how she always goes back to her ex is also relatable to me. and i think the chorus on forgiveless is a reference to kill bill, she says i’ve told you before it won’t end how you want it to with the i might kill my ex line. to sum it up i just think you’re really not the demographic meant to relate to the lyrics but i love that despite that you still enjoyed some of the music. a lot of people in your case will just view the album as silly heartbreak/love songs

Same! I consider CTRL to be one of my all time favorite records. Every song on it is different and great imo. For this album tho, I've listened to it quiet a bit but.. There's only a handful of songs that I think keeps the same unique feeling to them as the CTRL songs. And this album has received so much more popularity. I think it's just pop value maybe? I dunno, but I def agree with your take.

There is an amazing 13-15 song album within this album. Unfortunately I think with streaming artists don't have as much incentive to cut tracks out because more streaming numbers. I do think SZA is a great writer, she could almost be a rapper.

This was the first time I fell asleep during a Bob React. Would have been better if I wasn't driving in I-95 rush hour traffic 😜 Nah I made it home first, then fell asleep when I sat down to finish the react. But yeah it isn't cuz it's boring or bad exactly but definitely sleepy.
