What's not to hate here? Her nonsensical and utterly boring rambling that takes up half an hour of this hour and 45 minute album? A totally shot voice that decays further as the night goes on? Repetitive, boring, unmemorable, unfinished, badly performed, samey songs for the other 75 minutes? Lauryn showing genuine contempt for the people who chose to suffer through this trainwreck? Her constant excuses for this dishevelled, unworthy performance? People say this is honest, and if so, I think Lauryn *honestly* doesn't like music, *honestly* doesn't like her fans and *honestly* doesn't understand the basics of being a performer; this whole album reflects incredibly poorly on her. This is absolutely excruciating, the drop in quality this represents from her debut is one of the sharpest in the history of popular music. If I could rate this 0 stars, I would.

A few too many wack bars for my liking, production that is at times a bit too rough around the edges for what I expect from one of the most acclaimed hip hop producers of all time, so-so songwriting, and a meagre track list (not in terms of overall length because ye was a great album, but in terms of number of good or great songs) make this his worst album. Yes, worse than Ye, worse than Yeezus, worse than Graduation - by a country mile.
