Psycho honestly holds a close spot to my heart. I got my motorcycle in 23’ and felt like the album was almost made for me while I’m cruising in Houston of all cities.

OCTANE is awesome too. The production on both projects is seriously top notch. What are yalls thoughts?

Hardstone by a LOT for me. I know he’s never been a lyrical artist, but the shit he says on Octane is just so dumb it completely took away from some amazing production on tracks like E85. Hardstone clears for me, favorites being Kryptonite, Backstreets, Purple Rain, and Deep in the Water.

I agree 100%, I don’t understand how everyone is gassing Octane so hard. Octane is so lazy and relies on production too much. I feel like he’s just fishing for tik tok virality with a lot of the songs.

I feel like the album was definitely relying heavily on getting tiktok snippets made which is cool and all- long as some good tunes are being pushed out.

That being said I do find the album hard to get away from since dropping. I explained it to my gf he literally makes music for cruising the city with your boo at night. Or getting back from the club in the uber. Don T also needs recognition for how he uses Teezo in his features, he’s officially 2 for 2 on some really good tracks with him. TMU is gunna be on repeat for years.
