Wale has done it again! With great instrumentals backed with the true double M Genius wordplay from one of the true forgotten artists of this generation, The Album About Nothing is another masterpiece for 2015. The DMV has to proud of the content that Wale produces and he never seems to disappoint with each track being one to remember. The integration of what is widely consider the "best sitcoms of all time" and the inspiration for the album, the "Show About Nothing" commonly know as "Seinfeld" is featured throughout the album with the great Jerry Seinfeld giving us his popular mannerisms as well as great life tips from the shows best episodes. As the track titles reflect the Seinfeld episode titles, each provide an intriguing story of hip-hop, black American culture, and relationships as Wale and Jerry Seinfeld share their experiences from almost opposite ends of the spectrum. Definitely a must have with great replay ability.

Wale has managed to remain loyal to his original fan base while transcending to another level of hip hop. He has rose his own lane since attention deficit, but has shown tremendous growth every album without featuring the entire industry. The Seinfield feature shows how accepted this guy has become since 2008. So many great songs on this one it's to pick stand out tracks. The Glass egg, the pessimist, and the need to know are one of the first tracks I select if I select any; I normally hit random and repeat on this one quite often!

I have been a Wale fan since his early mixtapes but I felt as if once he signed his deal with MMG he strayed away from his poetic rapping style. He definitely has brought it back on this album, which I think is the mixtape More About Nothing 2.0. I liked the fact that he touched on current issues and social trends that are tearing away from society today. Hard to name my favorite song on this album, I have at least 5. Money well spent.

Besides the nice beats, I listen to what he has to say and he gets very personal and vulnerable. So often, we hear these guys talking about guns, drugs, money & girls, but instead he lets us into his world. Go Wale for showing us you're human and you have the same issues we have to which we can relate.

Wale is truly an artist! The music incredible! Seinfeld incredible, and most of all the lyrics INCREDIBLE! Great body of work, but I would expect nothing less from Wale! I just wish we could hear and see more of him...he's truly an artist that DESERVES to be in the headlines! You won't be disappointed.

This is definitely Wale's most impressive album thus far. If you're a fan of Seinfeld, listening to the album is that much better. Each track has so much meaning as it opens up with a skit from the show. By far my favorite Wale album to date.

I gave this album 4 stars because nothing is perfect. I do enjoy this album more than his "Gifted" album though. The overall quality of songs from beginning to end is fantastic. I bought the album the day it came out and haven't forgot about it.

The album was great. I wish The Need to Know was a little longer. That was a great song. Seinfeld kinda disappeared midway through the album so you kinda forget that the album was supposed to have his cuts throughout.

I can't really say anything bad about Wale from the very first time that I was able to hear one of his albums I knew from that point on that I was a fan so my opinion is a little bias.

Wale never fails. I have all his albums and I must say he has grown over the years musically. The song Matrimony makes me want to get married. Again. I take that back! Good album though!!!

Wale & Jerry Seinfeld team up in a great hip-hop album. The two of them work well off each other, the music and banter are great.

Wasn't sure about this album at first. But he went back to his roots on this one. Glad to see Ross let him take his own direction

If you're a fan of Wale's other CDs you'll be into this one. I really like some of the callaborations and the first song may be my favorite.

The album was exactly what I was looking for. Probably not his best work but definetly worth the purchase.
