Having spent most of the last decade as an underground king and one half of Clipse, Pusha T excited rap fans last year when he joined Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music imprint and began experiencing stardom. His official solo debut is still a work in progress, but he’s managed to keep his momentum with a number of high-profile guest verses and a well-received mixtape earlier this year. Pusha continues to keep us warm with Fear of God II: Let Us Pray, a retail mixtape/EP that may not be what Pusha’s fans have been waiting for, but still manages to be a decent hold-over until that true debut actually comes.
It’s isn’t exactly a new album or even an entirely new mixtape, but taken at face value, Fear of God II is a solid collection of tracks. There are definitely still plenty of people out there who don’t spend all day online looking for music, and those people should be very happy with what they find on this EP. Unfortunately, the fans who are the most anxious for new music from Pusha T are the ones who’ll be the least excited by the release since they’ve almost certainly heard this all before. The good news, however, is that if these songs are any indication, Pusha T’s actual album should live up to the standard that’s been set by his past work. Cold comfort, perhaps, but still better than nothing.
