all jokes aside - i love how much character you’ve been giving this channel recently. keep it up melonhead.

[latiasite]

So brave of Fantano to finally turn off his lights, I see he’s no longer afraid of the monsters under his bed!

[jimmyl]

0:02 Anthony come on man not during Pride Month

[jacksonmaiocco]

That synth on Gov Cheese is from Blue Suede!!! Such a cool little detail, Vince is one of the most consistent rappers of the decade imo

[stereoreserve]

Shame on the devil as least favorite song is CRAZY

[DTheAustralian]

No memes, no bits- following this channel has been so fun this year. It’s been so surprising and exciting with all the thumbnails, guest stars and overall _different_ reviews like this one, it’s been great. Keep it up melon!

[buttermoth]

My colorblind ass thought you gave Vince a red flannel 💀

[renapeppers]

Bro hitting us with that 2011 lighting

[auhsejj]

that Kendrick's DAMN. face looking more scary on the dark

[Soulkinthehuman]

This was the first Vince Staples album I listened to, and it absolutely blew me away. I knew I would be listening to a personal favorite the moment that transition from the intro to Black-and-Blue hit.

The lighting of this video reminds me of 2012 TND

[tempo]

I loved Shame on the Devil from the first teaser for this project. It is one I constantly go back to before listening to the entire album in order.

Your content has seen a real upgrade this year. Keep it up Mr. F-word 👍

[jeffdup]

he said shame on the devil had underwhelming songwriting. the same song with the lyrics "tell me who shoot for the shooters? who gon look after medusa?"... insane bar

[eric_stewart]

Nothing Matters is a very underrated track on here apparently and one of my favorites. Sad to see it skipped over in the review

[JakeBodenhamer]

Calling Shame on the Devil a low point is wild

[vasilkrastenov]

This album finally made me a Vince fan. He's been on my radar for a while but I had never actually sat down and listened to a full project of his until now. I was also able to buy tickets to see him yesterday in Cologne, which I'm really glad I did, especially given that it was only my second time going to an actual concert

[Giessepe]

Vince has actually never let me down. Definitely one of my sleeper picks as a favorite. Loved his last two projects and this one slaps just as much. I’m surprised you gave it what you gave it but it’s actually a good rating. Gonna listen to it again now

[dedepoyer]

Loved the album, Vince is one of the only big artist to be out there speaking about how labels are fucking up with every new artist. Hope he keeps the energy for the next projects

[Wunderfizz.]

Shame on the devil being your least fav track is criminal. Such a chill song to vibe to
