CRITIC REVIEWS

83
A.V. Club

SR3MM delivers quantity and quality by zeroing in on its creators’ charisma, clarifying the appeal that’s been there the whole time.

81
Pitchfork

Swae and Jxmmi not only place their partying ethos in the rock-star lineage but lobby to earn the same kind of respect as artists deemed “classic rock.” In shooting that gap, SR3MM ends up being their clearest personal statement yet, finding their voices almost coincidentally.

80
AllMusic

Taken as a whole ... the album is a serious time investment. However, broken up into three parts as intended, it provides a trio of easily digestible bites that gives Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi freedom to indulge their own artistry while maintaining their bond as a duo.

80
Rolling Stone

Where recent marathons like Migos' gratuitous Culture II felt more about streaming algorithms than art, Sr3mm rarely wears out its welcome.

80
Highsnobiety

The collective album, overall, is more innovative, more daring, and flat-out riskier than its predecessors.

77
GIGsoup

As their 3rd effort, Rae Sremmurd didn’t disappoint and brought their distinctive sound per usual. Even with features from Future, Travis Scott, Juicy J, and The Weeknd, the rest of the album carries it’s weight.

Exclaim!

SR3MM's titular disc leaves little doubt that the two brothers work best in tandem.

The Needle Drop

If there's one thing I learned from SR3MM, it's that the Rae Sremmurd brothers work better together.

The Guardian

A decent triple album, but it would have been better yet boiled down to an eclectic single album, the best solo tracks sitting alongside the group efforts: not so much reining ambitions in as realising less is sometimes more.

58
Consequence of Sound

There are plenty of interesting moments. But it would have been nice to go on a journey.

50
The Young Folks

Miraculously, SR3MM manages to give the people exactly what it wants: a reason for Rae Sremmurd to break up.

Edit: This album has a perfect length and it full of bangers. 73~>80

I actually think this has way more energy than SL2 did. Most of the songs have really fast flowing, bassy instrumentals. For example, “Up In My Cocina” which has quite a dark beat and really grew on me with its weird, unsettling deliveries. “CLOSE” was really disappointing with an underwhelming verse from Travis and a very boring feel throughout the song. Despite this, “Bedtime Stories” ... read more

This is the rating for Sr3mm. Not Swaecation. Not Jxmmtro. I don’t actually count those as part of the third SremmLife.

This thing slaps though, and these two only really work as a duo.

The first disc of SR3MM is a pretty good trap album, propably the most consistently good Rae Sremmurd project. Slim, Swae and the features do pretty well on the whole project, but the real star of the show is the incredible production. I unfortunetly won't score it higher becouse the songs here have an unfortunate habit of dragging on for way too long when they clearly don't have anything interesting left to offer - did ''Buckets'' really need to be 5 minutes long with its repetitive hook? ... read more
