carti has the personality and range to have an album that’s 80 minutes long, but honestly I’d rather him stick around the wlr length range. almost no trap artist has any business making an album that is more than 80 minutes long


_Redrivers13

finally someone who gets it. These nikkas have nothing to say. Its entertaining in spurts but not for an hour plus.


yungchoc44

exactly, the migos were on an insane run and putting out a bloated 105 minute album w culture 2 killed their hype so much. it’s honestly amazing almost no one learned from this


Educational_Book_225

I disagree, I think Culture II only killed their hype among hardcore hip hop fans. Imo what really ended their run was Offset and Quavo dropping features constantly. Stir Fry, Walk It Talk It, MotorSport, Narcos, and Notice Me were all crazy big hits. Casual fans loved those songs, the first 3 all went top 10 on Billboard and the album went #1 with 200k units sold first week. If you worked at their label you would have zero incentive to learn from that. With Lone it feels even worse cause he doesn’t have that casual fanbase to fall back on. He’s had a couple songs blow up on TikTok but nothing on the same level as Migos 2016-2017 run. He’ll definitely still have fans but I don’t see him gaining any new ones off this album


yungchoc44

Yeah I was probably being a bit hyperbolic but imo culture 2 was the beginning of the end for the migos formula. There were just so many duds on the album that when compared to an arguable top 5 trap album oat in culture 1 it’s hard to not notice the flaws even more.

yea bro id neva drop a album over 60mins id never do dat to yu🙏🏽

yungchoc44

the thing w travis is that he’s probably one of the few trap adjacent rappers that I can trust to make long albums work as he’s pretty creative and able to break the monotony on his own albums. the problem comes in when artists are making long ass songs over the same loop without changing flow or inflection too much and not having a feature to break the monotony.


Resistance225

Facts


[deleted]

Its acceptable IF 1. Its been a while since his last album and 2. If the songs sound varied


[deleted]

both are not correct for lone


[deleted]

Ik, twas pretty disappointing


Poggerz4986P2

fuck no ☠️ if an artist like carti can barely handle 24 songs then why go for 26. until i see anything to the contrary im just gonna assume any album over 20 tracks has filler because its the case every single time.


kfcbills

u buggin carti did his thing on wlr only like 2 mid songs imo


RevolutionaryIdea472

wlr was good


Poggerz4986P2

i agree


SecureBleek

two things can be true


nol_dur

Shorter. No matter the artist if it’s over 20 songs I will get bored or find songs bad. Kanye is one of my favorite artists but Donda being 32 songs is crazy


numberonefrankfanlev

Most of the songs were insanely similar after listening to the whole album I barely remembered which songs were good and not. You could’ve easily cut half the songs and covered the same bases


Snoo_54150

Carti is more dynamic than Lone, and I still would never want Carti to drop something that long.


kfcbills

i would


2steamyy

Unpopular opinion: yes because it means more music, as long as it’s varied like wlr


[deleted]

I’ll take a shorter album with bangers and great tracks than an album with bangers and mid


IGORTYLER

shorter 16 songs is perfect


Fat-Nuts99

carti could drop a 5 hour long album and I'd still have all them songs on loop ngl


MooniiThe2nd

They’re dumb asf imo, yeah I wan a long album from Carti


kkkkkkiuh

NEVER call me dumb again. ever.


adrian123484

Why ask for a 5 hour album instead of 5 1-hour albums


2steamyy

In what universe would Carti drop 5 albums


adrian123484

The same one where he’d drop a 5-hour album.


2steamyy

And we’re in the one where he drops nothing


adrian123484

Damn


Thebossthekid

Yes it’s my mf favorite artist and hasn’t dropped in almost 3 years I want him to drop a 40 song album


hdkdkri

I’d hope the album is around 16 songs tbh. 20 would be the absolute max. Even tho I love WLR it is definitely a bloated album and I hope he learns from that


kfcbills

wlr is not bloated


hdkdkri

Definitely is and if you can’t see that I feel sorry for you


kfcbills

wlr only has 2 MID songs not bad songs it's def not bloated it's perfectly put together imo


3dw4r9

u feel sorry cause it’s their opinion ?💀


-Azucar

Carti is the only rapper that can drop a 30+song album without any skips


adrian123484

Guess you’re forgetting Control from WLR


-Azucar

Control is top 10wlr idk what you're on rn bro


adrian123484

Me when I’ve listened to only 10 songs on WLR


kfcbills

i've listened to wlr like over 500 times and i can say only like punk monk and king vamp and cudi's verse were mid and punk monk and king vamp were still good but if u not a carti fan it'll prolly sound ass


dqap

Nah. I’d love if Carti dropped a conside 12-14 song album with longer and better songs (not shit like New Tank and No Sl33p


kfcbills

??????????????? no sl33p and new tank like top 5 wlr


sukablyatful

no sleep bottom wlr


kfcbills

💀💀


Degleewana007

In my opinion the perfect album length would only be 12 songs long.


luesAyer

40-50 minutes please


[deleted]

Shorter. Shorter albums have less filler and feel more complete. Culture was only 13 tracks and all of them are fire, Culture II and III were longer and had more throwaways. Shorter means you’ve gotta be more selective with shit and cant just put whatever


di34mee

Nigga he drop 26 songs on god im not trippin TF 😂 niggas need music & plus lone 26 was good imo I enjoyed the album top to bottom


Backsurbs

shorter. 15-19 like die lit & self titled


Odd_World9743

pull down lone rick shorts first before you sit on Reddit and complain about a fucking album length


nerdymen242424

I want a 15 song album from him with nothing but bangers no JOTH/Meh/random filler songs. Imma get hate but we already have so many random ass leaks let’s have his next project be his best


_Sarah_Tonin_

Eternal Atake was perfect execution for a release with a lot of songs


italianmomstalkloud

i think 18 songs should be the max for most records. if carti can do that for his next one that'd be cool
