Overview
- Critics at Rolling Stone and HotNewHipHop describe the release as a clear return to form after The Big Day.
- The album’s concept invokes Marcus Garvey’s Black Star Line and centers diasporic identity and community justice.
- Across 17 tracks, guests include Lil Wayne, Jay Electronica, Jazmine Sullivan, Joey Bada$$, Young Thug, and rising Chicago talent like BabyChiefDoIt.
- Reviewers note a broad palette—Afrobeats, drill, Jamaican influences, gospel and pop—shaped into a cohesive statement despite uneven moments.
- Track reactions vary: “The Highs & The Lows” draws praise, “Space & Time” divides opinion even as Chance discusses its post‑divorce themes on CBS Mornings, and Jay Electronica’s verse draws renewed scrutiny given past antisemitism criticism.
