Without a doubt the greatest comeback album of the 21st century. LGSEO sees Pusha and Malice going back to their roots with booming production by Pharrell. I hear by call LGSEO the album that saved the 2025 summer! Even with Pusha's solo work I'd call this project his best work. I had my doubts about it not living up to Hell Hath No Fury but it not only passed it but put itself on another level.
Once again Pusha T dropped a skipless album. For the first few tracks Pusha brought that Daytona energy but it started to receede twords the end. Easily top 5 best produced album OAT from Pharrell to Ye all bangers!
Definitely Clipse's most well rounded album. From front to back there's no real slowdown in the tracking. Side note what TF are they leaving So Be It off the new album?! Back to this project both Pusha and Malice bounce off each other well without either one stepping on the other's toes. What really makes this album is the production from The Neptunes making for the time futuristic ahead of the curve beats.
Listening to old Clipse and some of Push's solo work preparing for LGSTO. Plenty of hits but some tracks didn't hit as hard as others (Gangsta lean). It would've been more airtight and consistent if Pharrell didn't have vocals on almost every track. This was so ahead of its time for the early 2000s.
Good collection of tracks before the album drops. I would like to see more artists give their throwaway tracks before the album to hold over fans until the actual album drops. It's JID, he only drops heat!
It's decent I guess. I've never heard of this group before this LP and I probably won't have to for a bit.
I never really respected Kevin's work outside of Brockhampton until his latest project 'Blush'. It's all over the place especially in it's features, bit that might be it's biggest pull in factor. Very consistent track list but the lack of major moments make the tracks start to blend together. Major credit to Quadeca's work as executive producer really making everything work together.
It's insane how she was only 16 making this lyrically deep project. Lorde really had one of the best debuts in the last 20 years. Every song tells a different story with different emotions. Artists like Billie Eilish wouldn't have nearly as much radio play and mainstream play if not for Lorde showing what pop could be.
I don't mind the screaming vocals at all compared the the generic ass lyrics that put me in godforsaken JC Penny.
I for some reason didn't think I'd like this album. I did though because I can't hate true honest art. I've never read this much captivating and sink in lyricism outside the hip hop that I usually listen to. I've heard some of Phoebe's biggest hits but never fully immersed myself in her music like this before and I'm happy I did.
This album set the tone for what production evolved into. Not even Kanye's best album, but still one of the greatest projects of all time. No one will ever replace the college dropout to graduation era of Kanye. Both new and old Ye fans can appreciate this album as his top 3. My only real complaint is that it has filler which dropped it down some points for me. I really miss the skits too.
These guys were gone for a whole LESS THAN A YEAR (Looking at you Frank Ocean)! Immaculate say it now, these guts can't miss. Really enjoyed the energy that they brought to this project. I've been meaning to really get into them for a while, so I've heard some of their stuff her and there but I've always liked it. They're a little everywhere at once but they manage it well. They bring a modern twang to their retro roots.
A wild album for sure. Wouldn't say I love this album but it's great. Tbh experimental post hardcore isn't something I really haven't dived into until now.
This could've like a posthumous money grav release and Wayne still alive. Really wish I didn't listen to this and had C5 as the last of the Carter series. When the second half hit he list all of his motivation and gave his kids free space to do whatever they wanted. If he just cut the entire second half of the album we'd be holding this project in decently high grace.
