i feel like this one is for the fans. it's darker and more psychedelic than LONG.LIVE, and certainly has a cohesive sound as opposed to LONG.LIVE which was all over the place.

long.live.a$ap was all over the place? I thought it all meshed really nicely into a really powerful whole. "Wild for the Night" was the only "wait, what?" moment for me. Still a great song, despite all the skrillex.
AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP is definitely tuned to a different frequency. This Joe Fox's slinky guitar is all over the album, and A$AP himself helped write some of these beats, so that's probably why it sounds so consistent.
I really enjoy it, though I wish Ye's verse on Jukebox Joints was longer. Actuall, I wish it was a back-and-forth instead of a ROCKY-ROCKY-ROCKY-ROCKY-Yeezy deal. But hey, I'm not complaining.
I won't say it's better than either of the others yet... It's too soon and he's too good. But I will say I devoured it from beginning to end, and had as much of a blast with this record as I did with the more somber To Pimp a Butterfly.
I really like this whole "oh hey, my album's coming out in two weeks - PSYCH! It's coming out at like midnight and you are gonna be so stoked" trend.
