Do We Have A Problem Full Album Review

Do We Have A Problem — Release: 2026, Producer(s): Azure Skyz & Ja Fearce, Genre: Rap/R&B Runtime: 28m02s

Label: N/A-Independent Artist


Track #1: CRASHLANDING (Intro)


The album starts with a chill but edgy intro that does a great job connecting the spacey theme of the project with some storytelling. It's cool to see the classic album structure being used so well. My only issue is that sometimes the ad-libs/vocals are mixed too loud, which can distract from the track. (3/5)


Track #2: WEHAVEAPROBLEM


No doubt that this is my favorite track on the album. Skyz kicks things off with a bang, bringing high energy on a fierce beat. He opens with some bold lines and then hits us with a catchy hook that totally gives off that distinctive ATL vibe. The song comes after a slow and intimate intro, which makes for a surprising twist in the album's flow.


This song is an absolute banger, packed with quick and clever lines like "Dripping so hard I had to wring out my jeans" and "Y'all do the least, but I hop on tracks and overdo, like I was a late assignment." Also, it's storytelling at its best, really capturing what the album is all about—whether it's about dealing with life's challenges or how life seems to have issues with you. Such a dope track. (4/5)

Track #3: EXISTENTIALCRISIS


Skyz is great at both rapping and singing. In this track, we get to hear some vocals from the ATL native, along with some solid bars. The song has a strong chorus and simple yet deep lyrics. The background vocals are nicely balanced, giving the track room to breathe. I love the storytelling here; the song dives deep into topics like faith, mental health, and life's challenges. (5/5)


Track #4: THEGREATFILTER


Skyz keeps racking up points with this track, thanks to his knack for storytelling, smooth flow, and solid punches. He really goes in on the beat with some witty lines, and his timing is spot on, making it easy for me to really soak in the lyrics instead of just getting hit with them. Other things that stood out were how well the track and transitions are edited overall. The ad-libs were a nice touch too. (5/5)


Track #5: WHATITIS


This interlude is slightly upbeat. There is not too much to say as it follows the same direction as the intro track in continuing the theme, but it does foster more of a conversation. I appreciate the fact that this album even includes an interlude considering not too many artists use this forgotten art nowadays. I do love the hook and the track hits sonically; however, the pacing at times is a bit jarring. (2/5)


Track #6: SPACEINVADERZ


This track really brings a bold and creative vibe. I'd call this song smash-mouth or cutthroat because it seems like Skyz wanted to come off as intense as he could. After a bit of banter, he dives right in, hitting the beat hard with his lyrics once more. I’m a fan of the hook and how the breaks in between felt natural and didn’t drag on. Nice touch. (3.5/5)


Track #7: DYT(Shawty)


This track is more of a slow burn as it not only consists of a relaxed beat and tone. It is well-produced and features crafty storytelling, seemingly a conversation geared toward a relationship that faded. I like the nice gradual slowdown to the album at this point. (4/5)


Track #8: DMT(Dome), Prod. by Ja Fearce


Seeming to channel that inner J. Cole, Skyz structures the track with healthy pacing and storytelling. It starts off slow and then fuses R&B and rap. Also, his ad-libs are subtle and not overbearing, adding to the track smoothly. The bars of this track don't emanate flair or shock value, but allow the melody and flow to stick organically. This is a slap. (4/5)


Track #9: FLAWED(Demo)


This track is short and sweet, no fluff, no extra mixes, just Skyz and the mic. Slowed down again, the demo really highlights his vocals. The lyrics are simple on purpose, but I wish there was a bit more to them. Overall, I like the sound. Not sure about where it is in the lineup; it would have made a great opener. (3.9/5)


Final Thoughts (4 Stars)


I rate "Do We Have A Problem" by Azure Skyz 4 stars. Music has the power to evoke any emotion in us, and I think it is important to recognize that with every track. This album focuses on storytelling, provides a message, and is well-produced. Overall, I appreciate that this project felt authentic and organic. I truly connected with Skyz as an artist.
