• Written by 

//Intro//
 
Hey everyone, back for another album made by KO-Doomzday
His last album was fantastic, I gave it an 8.7 and now
Going off the description alone, I think this might be an improvement from it
So excited for this one, anyway let's get into it
 
//Track 1: Long Time//
 
Great intro track, the lyricism shown is great, the flow is good as well
The skit is decent, helps get the story and fill in the blanks
The rapping overall is something of great beauty, no meat riding
Pretty great this track
 
I feel a: 8.2/10
 
//Track 2: Breath Easy (Freestyle)//
 
I'm not going to lie, I'm shocked this is only a freestyle
It feels like a fully thought out track, the lyricism and rhyme schemes are
Top-notch, the flows is incredibly good, it's one long verse but oh my word
Is it good, the rapping is better than his previous track
 
Overall: 9/10
 
//Track 3: Middle-Class Life//
 
Another incredible track, he was not lying when he said there are just
Lyrical bangers on the album, nothing more, nothing less
The rhyme schemes and lyricism paired with the flow is great
So far so good
 
Feeling a: 8.5/10
 
//Track 4: Struggle Evolution//
 
This track may be the weakest so far, not because its bad or anything
More because its the least lyrical, and the weakest flow
But its still a good track, not the best on here is all
 
Overall: 8/10
 
//Track 5: Leisure (w/ Symbiote)//
 
This track is great on KO's side of things
The lyricism and flow he brings to the table is great
Symbiote has great flow but his lyricism needs some work
Everything else is great from him just the lyricism is weak
At least compared to other lyricists on this record
 
Overall: 8.6/10 still great
 
//Track 6: Done Proved Myself//
 
Incredible track, the lyricism is some of the best on here
The flow is everchanging and non-repetitive
The rhyme schemes are nice and cohesive, this track is just great
He's at his best on this track, no doubt
 
Feeling a: 9.2/10
 
//Track 7: Point Of View (w/HarryTrevPev)//
 
KO's verses bring more of the same from Done Proved Myself
The lyricism and rhyme schemes are fantastic, the wordplay is great
The flows are not his best but still good and nice to read
Harry's Verse is incredible and packed with rhymes and lyricism
Great flow as well, he really brought his A game to this track
 
I'm thinking a: 9.1/10
 
//Track 8: Breath (Interlude)//
 
Nice, short and sweet, the track feels more like a verse
The rapping and lyricism is pretty good and for an interlude
This track is great, one of the better interludes I've seen
 
Overall: 8/10
 
Track 9: Need Wrath//
 
This track is the most like his previous projects like, Bubonia and ACWNG
Great structuring and placement, though it sacrifices a bit in lyricism
And flow, but its still a great track I think you should read
 
Overall: 8.3/10
 
//Track 10: Got Ya Self Cornered (Interlude)//
 
This track is great, back to more of the same great lyricism and flow
From this LP, this track may be one of the best interludes I've read
The rapping on it is incredible overall, feel like the album is kicking into
Final gear
 
Feeling a: 8.9/10
 
//Track 11: Str8 Lyrics//
 
This track is perfect for what its meant to be
A lyrical banger with incredible flows and unpredictable rhyme schemes
Dizzying wordplay, with some of the best bars I've seen in a while
This track is fantastic and may be the best one the album
 
I'm feeling a: 9.3/10
 
//Track 12: Sky's What You Stand On (w/ HarryTrevPev)//
 
Remember the previous track, yeah this track may be better
KO has arguably his best verses on the whole LP with the best flows
The lyricism on them is next level and introspective at times
Some of the best rapping from him
Harry's verse is also one of the best on the mixtape, the flow, lyricism
And rhyme schemes, are top tier and insanely great, the song, a chef's kiss
 
I'm feeling a: 9.5/10
 
//Track 13: Separate Art From The Activist//
 
This poem is incredibly deep and introspective
Its great and heart paining, its gut-wrenching, you can see the pain
In his words, he's not trying to sugar coat anything he is saying
This poem is the most incredible thing on the whole mixtape
I Love this track more than anything on here, its one of the best I've seen
On this site, maybe the best I've seen
 
10/10
 
//Lyricism//
 
The lyricism is the best I've ever seen from KO in his career
He brought the best he could throughout the whole mixtape/LP
I don't think many could match the pure lyricism he brings on here
He is one of the best lyricists I've seen on here
 
Overall: 9/10
 
//Flow//
 
It's good, nothing to be mad about with the flow
It may get repetitive at times, but those are few and far between
Other than that, the flow is good, certainly not bad
 
Overall: 7.6/10
 
//Cohesion//
 
It's quite cohesive, not as cohesive as his previous project
But still very cohesive and nothing really feels out of place
Quite the great thing actually, nothing to not like here
 
Overall: 8.1/10
 
//Choruses//
 
They are more consistent on here than his previous work
But that's many because there's less of them on here
They are all good choruses, not a single mid or bad one on the LP
But mainly because there's less which means more consistency
 
Overall: 7.7/10
 
//Verses//
 
The verses are a thing of beauty, the combining of good flow
Great rhyming and great wordplay, no bad verse throughout
Some verses are better than others, but when the rappers are at their best
The verses are incredible, whether it's a lyrical verse from KO and Harry
Or a flow heavy verse of Symbiote, it's always at a minimum decent
 
Overall: 9/10
 
//Instrumentals//
 
Most of them are quite chill and calm, really just ear candy most of the time
Really nice and rich instrumentals throughout, no misses or weird placement
Love the instrumentals and beats
 
Overall: 8.7/10
 
//Final Thoughts//
 
This record is definitely better than his last project, which was incredible
The pen game on here was beautifully done, no meat riding
The tracks are great on their own, not held by the albums narrative
Maybe this is also his best project ever, maybe even better than TPAT
Which is a classic in my eyes, in my opinion this is a
 
//Score//
 
Giving this a: 9.1/10
 
Did you love it, hate it, like it, dislike it, let me know what you think
