AOTY #4: Pusha T – “Daytona”
We all thought Kanye was trolling us once again when he tweeted release dates to multiple albums at the end of April; slated for the end of May into June. However, now we know he did deliver on his promise, and one being the first to come, Pusha’s “DAYTONA.”
It’s been years since we got a solo Push project so fans were eager to hear the album as soon as possible, and weren’t disappointed once it dropped. “Daytona” only included 2 official features, Rick Ross and Ye, who also produced the entire LP. My personal favorite track was “Santeria” which I had on repeat for about 3 days. Another stand-out was “Infrared,” in which King Push took aim at Drizzy on a few bars — re-sparking their feud. We all know how that panned out — and what’s come from it.
Lyrics, content, bars, production were all on point on “DAYTONA” but my biggest issues was it’s length. Is it hard to shoot 100% on 7 tracks — 19 minutes? Not in my book… so Push lands at #4 for me.
“ES EL FUEGO QUE YOOOO”
