Title: ICEMAN
Artist: Drake
Out of anything in the trilogy (possibly the worst music trilogy of all time), this at least has some value as an album compared to HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR.
It feels very inconsistent however, there are some great tracks among these, but some sound incredibly generic, and some of these features are done really badly and if anything, do damage to the songs rather than add to them.
There are also some very strange lyrics ... read more

Title: MAID OF HONOUR
Artist: Drake
I've come into this album with very low expectations after listening to HABIBTI. This album is completely mindless and has no direction whatsoever, just like Drake was making music for the sake of it instead of something enjoyable. There's also some really pointless lyricism, just as if it was there as a filler, without any meaning whatsoever.
Actually get's decent towards the end though for a ... read more
A great album, very consistent to say the least and a great listening experience overall.
The combination of spacial sounding tracks, melancholic vent-like tracks and hype to fully blend into this great project.
I know this is majorly a Ye throwaway project, most of his songs coming from the Donda and God's Country era:
- THANK GOD - Devil's Ivy (God's Country)
- MODERN JAM - I Am A God Travis Scott production (Thank God For Drugs)
- GOD's COUNTRY - God's Country ... read more

Title: HABIBTI
Artist: Drake
I'm not lying when I say this is one of the worst album's I've ever heard in my life, Sexxy Red's feature on 'Hurr Nor Thurr' is genuinely the worst verse I've ever heard in my life, and the album is just completely lyrically useless too. "When we fuck, it obviously feels good" for example, "Down on her knees, tryna reason with me". Drake please keep it in your pants when ... read more

Title: OCTANE
Artist: Don Toliver
Decent album, but nothing more. Feels like a bit of a tedious release and some of the production is quite empty.
Though I'm not going to come criticise the production like a drone, because I actually like some of the "empty" production, for example like on 'Secondhand', but it does it so well, it gives the song so much space to breathe. Though sometimes most of it just feels incredibly ... read more

Title: The Fall Off
RE-REVIEW
Artist: J Cole
This a good album, but I honestly expected more based on what people said, some of it felt a bit tedious and repetitive at some points, but otherwise, theres great story-telling, great rapping, great production on most songs.
FAVOURITES: SAFETY, Bombs in the Ville/Hit the Gas, Lonely At The Top, Only You
LEAST FAVOURITES: Two Six, WHO TF IZ U, I Love Her Again

Title: DON'T BE DUMB
Artist: A$AP Rocky
It's a decent album I don't have much against it. It is a bit dissapointing for the 8 year wait that fans had to have waited. But overall a decent project.
Almost objectively the best album to ever be made.
The amount of perfection that each track carries, with absolutely no flaws, the amount of hits and levels of production couldn't ever be matched.
One of the most unique albums I've ever heard, the mysterious and distorted atmosphere that this album provides is truly one of a kind, and not to mention that each track is made to almost absolute perfection.

Title: ADL
Artist: Yeat
Very, very weak album. This album does have some highs, such as the Julia Wolf intro on "My Way", a couple of the outros on most songs, work with the synths and leads, some decent mixes, and the Kid Cudi feature on "NO MORE GHOSTS". Other than that it's a combination of really poor lyricism and often generic production.
At least they've released without AI on the actual thing. But the release they still sound raw and unfinished (still decent songs though).
This version of BULLY was horrifying to listen to, the AI vocals on PREACHER MAN were genuinely grating your ear drums. DAMN was alright but more of an interlude than anything, could have added more and made it a full song like the older versions that Hassan Khaffaf made. BEAUTY AND THE BEAST isn't too bad but again the AI is just bad, and the ... read more
What this album could have been if Ye didn't get hooked on nitrous. The leaks pre-May of this album were incredible, they felt like gold if completed and objectively could have been a great album. But since the whole nitrous incident, this album's entire direction went south, as if Ye lost his ability to make music, with poor effort mixing and writing from Ye, and even including AI generated Ye vocals to "finish" the project.
Ty is the highlight of this entire project, his ... read more
An unforgettable album that's for sure, great project but people are so blindsided to the controversies during this era. Only issues come from some lyrics and PAPERWORK (deadass phonk song on the album what are we doing Ye 😭), genuinely great album nonetheless. One of the most underrated.

Title: N0rth4evr
Artist: North West
The EP itself is interesting. For a 12 year old, this EP is likely just a fun release to get her music out there. There are some very weird sample choices, a strange producer track and so many other things I can nitpick, but won't.

Title: Ca$ino
Artist: Baby Keem
Simple but nice LP. The production feels more like a very simple yet somewhat vintage addition to the whole album. I don't have many issues with this album, Birds & the Bees, Good Flirts and $ex Appeal just ruin it for me
FAVOURITES: No Security, I am not a Lyricist.
LEAST FAVOURITES: Birds & The Bees
I love this project, one thing that makes a good album stand out for me is the uniqueness in sound or concept, and this album does both. The collaboration between KayCyy and sign crushed motorist go so well together, and their sounds are blended so perfectly with each other.
ian feature is absolutely awful though.
One of my favourite albums by far.
The album manages to mirror Ye's personal and surface life on a level that we can understand.
This album is intentionally messy, though when you listen, it's not as inconsistent as it looks on paper, every track compliments on another and adds onto the perspective it creates of Ye.
Also one of the best albums I've ever heard, with one of the best open and closers to compliment it.

Title: Trying Times
Artist: James Blake
James Blake has made a productionally, lyrical and sonical masterpiece with this album. The amount of quality each track has and how harmoniously they sit with each other and themselves on the tracklist are brilliant. Such a great album.
FAVOURITES: Days Go By, Doesn't Just Happen, Rest Of Your Life
LEAST FAVOURITE: None
