Two of my favourite albums and undoubtedly Denzelâs best two albums. I wanted to compare production, features and tracks as Iâve had a hard time picking one album over the other in recent time.
Firstly their respective opening tracks vs each other:
TABOO | TA13OO Vs ULT
TABOO | TA13OO Vs ULT
Two tracks where Zel cleverly uses two different perspectives to convey his message:
MAD I GOT IT | MAD 1 GOT 1T vs Sick and Tired:
MAD I GOT IT | MAD 1 GOT 1T vs Sick and Tired:
Along with Denzel two of the best of the new generation, Joey Bada$$ and JID. Both great lyrical songs:
SIRENS | Z1RENZ feat JID and Billie Eilish vs Zenith feat Joey Bada$$:
SIRENS | Z1RENZ feat JID and Billie Eilish vs Zenith feat Joey Bada$$:
Two undoubtable bangers.
SUMO | ZUMO vs Gook:
SUMO | ZUMO vs Gook:
Two songs with amazing outros alongside great features.
VENGEANCE | VENGEANCE Feat JPEGMAFIA and Zilakami vs Knotty Head Feat Rick Ross:
VENGEANCE | VENGEANCE Feat JPEGMAFIA and Zilakami vs Knotty Head Feat Rick Ross:
Both melodic songs. Despite having different messages, Black Balloons evokes an optimistic tone even with its dark lyrics contrastingly This Life employs pessimistic subject matter with a happy vibe
BLACK BALLOONS | 13LACK 13ALLOONZ Feat Twelve'len and GoldLink vs This Life:
BLACK BALLOONS | 13LACK 13ALLOONZ Feat Twelve'len and GoldLink vs This Life:
Both very introspective songs with one reviewing the rap game and the other questioning the prejudice of the police towards young successful black men
PERCS | PERCZ vs Narcotics:
PERCS | PERCZ vs Narcotics:
Feel good songs, Cash Maniac employing a braggadocios vibe whereas Good Night evokes a sense of togetherness and optimism.
CASH MANIAC | CAZH MAN1IAC feat Nyyjerya vs Good Night Feat Nell and Twelve'len:
CASH MANIAC | CAZH MAN1IAC feat Nyyjerya vs Good Night Feat Nell and Twelve'len:
Two highly introspective tracks and arguably the darkest song on their respective albums.
CLOUT COBAIN | CLOUT CO13A1N vs Me Now:
CLOUT COBAIN | CLOUT CO13A1N vs Me Now:
Great lyricism and flows but which song is better?
SWITCH IT UP | SW1TCH 1T UP vs Story: No Title:
SWITCH IT UP | SW1TCH 1T UP vs Story: No Title:


Both albums are extremely good in their own way and the production aims to portray Denzel and the subject matter in a different way. However, itâs left for preference when it comes to production. So which project was produced better TA13OO or Imperial?


Which album had the better features?
TA13OO: Twelve'len, GoldLink, Nyyjerya, JID, Billie Eillish, JPEGMAFIA, ZILIKAMI and Mickey de Grand IV
VS
Imperial: Rick Ross, Joey Bada$$, Twelve'Len, Steve Lacy, Nell


Struggled to pair these songs with one from the respective albums so which song do you prefer?
SUPER SAIYAN SUPERMAN | ZUPER ZA1YAN ZUPERMAN vs Pure Enough
Final round; the concluding tracks on their albums.
BLACK METAL TERRORIST | 13 M T vs If Tomorrowâs not here Feat Twelve'len
BLACK METAL TERRORIST | 13 M T vs If Tomorrowâs not here Feat Twelve'len
I tried my hardest to make the songs somewhat comparative so hopefully the comparisons arenât too radical
. I put a lot of effort into making this so any RTâs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys
