I dig how #KillTheKing is a highly introspective focused album showcasing every side of the king, his diverse personas, personal life experiences, growth, vulnerability, and struggles. All the sounds are groundbreaking, easily 10/10 project as usual! @Tip

Everything that made T.I. the King of the South is on full display on his final album. Distinct voice, catchy hooks, calculated collaboration, and a sharp ear for production. If this is truly it, a masterclass in how to close out a career.
@Tip really went into the vault for this new album. The production is so late 2000’s/ early 2010’s and I love it. I know he has said it’s the last one, but I selfishly hope it’s not.
#KILLTHEKING
This new T.I. album is really solid. If this is his last album, he went out on a high note 👑
If you haven’t been following T.I. for a while, he’s actually been very consistent and ‘K!ll the King’ continues that. From a sonic perspective, whereas his recent albums tapped into a newer sound, this one is a return to a 2000s, vintage T.I. sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh.
On this album, TIP confronts his legacy and reflects on all he’s seen and been through. He feels at peace with where he’s at and ready to walk away, a rare case in a game where those that are retired continually get pulled back in. But this decision was premeditated and the album does really sound like a closing chapter rather than a rash decision to get publicity.
T.I. is an elite rapper and proves why he shouldn’t be left out of the longevity conversations alongside Clipse, Nas, Hov, etc. As one of the pioneers of trap music, TIP’s legacy is set in stone but this album is a nice cherry on top for those that needed to be reminded of how well he can spit.
