Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
He is the trio’s best rapper, with the most promising career prospects outside of the group.
-
NME
The Migos underdog proves his worth on this eclectic, engaging – and often emotionally bare – collection.
-
Hip Hop DX
succeeds at illustrating Takeoff’s talents. Though there’s no outright banger and some filler, this solo album serves as a glimmer of hope for the longevity of Hip Hop’s current favorite trio.
-
The 405
Takeoff keeps Migos close to his heart while showing new ambitions on his first solo effort.

High Snobiety
It looks like that rocket is lost in the atmosphere; let’s just hope it doesn’t come crashing back down.
-
Commedia
Takeoff is able to hold his own on this album.

Ratings Game Music
I felt like it was a body of work that was passionate, from the heart, and as dynamic as any other rap album I’ve heard this year.
-
XXL Magazine
The Last Rocket may not be a giant leap for mankind but it’s more than a small step for establishing Takeoff as something other than the Migo left off .
-
Amino Apps
This album proved Takeoff can handle his own. And I really hope this sells at least 30K.

good art is deliberate, enjoyable and actually takes effort. It's good to see he's capable of all these, can't wait to see what he gives us next.
-
Immortal Reviews
The album peaks with the very first track, and from there it’s just a downward spiral.
-
Uproxx
Stunningly Solid
-
The Quaker Campus
Takeoff is his own artist, fully capable of producing compelling music without his buddies.
-
The East Texan
The album’s 38-minute runtime, doesn’t allow the audience to fully be aware of all the skills he can possess.
-
After Glow
Not an amazing album, there are still tracks worth returning to, and the potential is undeniable.
-
The Rotunda Online
Overall this album is mediocre at best and the negatives overshadow the positives on this album. Even when Takeoff shows promise with some on this album his other songs just fall short of anything interesting.
-
Xavier Herald
With a good half of the album being some of the best he has to offer, but a few could have been retweaked and rewritten.
-
The A&T Register
We are witnessing the ascension of Takeoff from rapper to lyricist, and it looks to be a fun ride.
-
La Vista
Takeoff shines at exhibiting his lyrical bars with a faster approach to his vocals.
-
Culture kings
The production has been highly commended for good reason; it's full of trap bangers.
-
Rhyme Source
I’d like to give a round of applause to Takeoff for this one.
-
Campus Echo
His ability to “ride the beat” without relying on mumble rap flows was showcased well on the album
-
The Capstone
The Last Rocket is a solid debut and shows that Takeoff has potential to progress and thrive as a solo artist.
-
The Musical Hype
The flow is a selling point, as is the production, but little is accomplished when it’s all said and done.
-
So Queen Lo
I appreciate Takeoff’s approach sans features, allowing us to focus solely on his talent. This album was a wonderful project.
-

What we got was something you might enjoy for a week or so, but will forget before the year-end.

I feel like Takeoff has created a masterpiece.

It was a good first album that could have used a little more press coverage. Definitely a standout album, and one to add to your music library.

Rhyme Hip Hop
Time will tell, but in the meantime chew on Takeoff first solo effort.
-
Hip Hop Rbri
Overall, Takeoff finally delivering a solo project makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. On the 12 track debut, there’s a handful of good songs.
-

He’s a greyhound burst out of the starting gate, stacking syllables nimbly over minimalistic 808 rumble.

Ratings Game Music
I do see him as the toughest spitter out of the three, though, as he typically adds a layer of grit to whatever song he’s featured on.
-
Tyler the Entertainer
The album sported 12 good to great tracks that I’m sure that all of you will enjoy. This album caters to the Takeoff fans and overall machine gun lyricism.
-
Ocolly
The spacey and thematic backing tracks allow Takeoff freedom to experiment and showcase his skills.
-
Hip Hop Since 1987
Takeoff stays true to his Atlanta sound but expands with some vibes for everyone else.
-
Bloomington South Optimist
I’d give it a seven [out of 10] because it wasn’t amazing, but I enjoyed listening to it.
-
Daily Chiefers
The Last Rocket is not to be missed. With not a feature in sight this new project is boasting the best the Atlanta native has to offer, and he needs no help.
-
Living Life Fearless
Takeoff's solo is substantially better than what we got from Quavo, but he still largely falls short of the immense hype surrounding him.
