honestly probably one of his most slept on projects ever. i have to admit even i slept on justice for the longest time. though i can see the relevance in including the mlk snippets given everything that was happening in 2020, i’m just not sure how aligned it is with the album itself if that makes sense. for that reason i had to go with a 4.5 rating instead of a full 5 stars.
that being said, this album is beautiful from top to bottom. starting off strong with 2 much, an intimate and gentle love song, and ending with lonely - one of his most vulnerable songs ever imo, this album really gives listeners an “in” on his thoughts and emotions at the time.
my favorite tracks outside of the hits (ghost & peaches):
- 2 much
- deserve you
- off my face
- somebody
- lonely
