"The Mess We Made" sees a man looking back at his past mistakes and reflecting on life, death, and those infinite thoughts.
Lyrically very dark as well as in sound, the album has its glimpses of hope and healing, but with that coming only the Question:
"When does the next hurting come?" The piano is very well used here, I love how the album sounds and it is a spiral down into darkness from the sounds, while also keeping a magical feel to it. Very much patience is needed for ... read more

This is an amazing experimental/alternative rock album.
The instrumentation and songwriting is incredible here and the feeling is so great. I love how it mixes its sounds into another and it works perfectly.
One of the best rock albums I have heard in a long time.
Also, Long, Long Weary Day is one of the best album closers I have heard in a while. The only real complaint I have,is that it does get a little one note and a bit repetitive in the first half,but other than that,very great!

Literally perfect. Quiet,peaceful,Heartbreaking. The sad long moments of instrumentals only make his vocal appearances so much more impactful.

Okay,this is my favourite album of the year so far. (edit 06/04/20: now beaten by RTJ4)
IDK if Kendrick or someone will take that spot but for right now,its the AOTY. (well now its RTJ)
I cant describe it. It is an even better Jesus is King Basically.
This thing has been in the making for ten years. And it paid off.
It is basically a collab album but who cares,jay is back.
Now i have been intrigued to hear this,but not exited. This blew my expectations away.
WOW.
The lyrics are on point most of ... read more

Basically the same as Eternal Atake normally but better singing and less good beats.

i enjoyed it quite a bit. I think it doesnt live up to the hype but im just happy its out now. I prefer LUV is Rage 2 tho. at least at the moment. I thought it was a little repetitive and a little bit lost potential. And i really wanted more singing and melodies from Uzi. You know,that "The Way Life Goes Uzi." that "Dark Queen Uzi",that "XO TOUR Llif3 Uzi." Also i wanted it to be lot more lyrical and dark and sad like LUV is Rage 2,but in the end its still a pretty ... read more

Short,Hard Hip-Hop so enjoyable,that there is no way you can call this anything less than "good" or "solid".
Pretty Stereotypical but who cares,its one of the hardest albums in the last years!

Favourite Tracks:Lay_Up.m4a,Pyro (leak 2019), 'Cosmic'.m4a

Great Project from Oh-No and Madlib.
while this project is definitly not the best that he has ever delivered:Madlibs beats are fantastic and as always he shows why he´s the best producer of all time.
Oh No on the other hand seems to be in his prime,and brought amazing lyrics,great flows and an overall very good performance.
it starts off kinda slow but it gets better and better,and especially the second half has no bad songs on it.
This isnt as good as obviously Madlibs best projects ... read more

This Album is Insanity.
its a total trip into insanity.
This Man is so unpredictable.
Darkie obviously takes a lot of inspiration from Artists like Death Grips,JPEGMafia,Danny Brown but also form artists like XXXTentacion it seems.
This album is such a contrast with every song and its incredible what this mans voice does and his what his instrumentals do.
I cant really say much about it.
listen to it yourself.
Its a rollercoaster for your ears,with amazingly weird production and genremixes and ... read more

Banger after banger,intresting mixing and production,sometime terrible but sometimes fun and clever lyrics,delivery as always on point with Denzel and nice features.

Fav. Tracks:CHARLIE SHEEN.EVIL TWIN,WELCOME TO THE FUTURE,NO PEN NO PAD,GOGETA

Worst.Tracks:INTRO

Great Verses,Good Rhymes,Good Beats but not too got to outshine him,good features...overall a pretty nice project,and even tho its very short it has almost no parts that are unintresting. Almost All Killer- No Filler.

Some Nice,Clever and Fun Lyrics,some Great Deliveries and Flows plus Amazing Production Make this Thing an Amazing Project.
its so comical its almost unrealistic.
loved it very much.

Worst Tracks:Dog,Brother Czarquis

Now this might be biased since i loved their latest record and its my album of the year right now but look.
This is not as good,but still impressive.
probably one of the Best Electro-Hop records ever.
Now i haven´t listened to much of that type of music before but...i dont care.
With its tight 3 Song runtime (+The instrumentals) its an incredibly themed project.
i have already ordered my "The Deep" Novel with it and im exited to see what that is all about (since its based on the ... read more

A better Release than i thought.
i expected this to sound unfinished due to the whole drama around Melly but this sounds pretty finished.
i enjoyed it for some parts.
its not an amazing release,but it has a few great tracks.
While there are many weak points its still an okay release and pretty much all songs sound like bangers.

Favourite Songs:Suicidal,Adam Sandler,100k,Nobody´s Around,Waiting on You (feat.Tonk with the Gift)

Worst Songs:Two Face,Billboard

A very surprising album from Wiki.
"Oofie"sounds like so much stuff that we all have already heard,but also like nothing we ever heard.
We kind of have an intresting take of music that i could imagine hearing on the radio...soundwise inspired by something like Simple Trap Songs...but this is a new turn on it...
While i liked the "Singles" for the Album,this is way better than these...and well these "Album-Singles" were not even for the album.
Its kind of like you ... read more

Not As Great as his Last Project(which was like a 11/10 for me),still better than anything that came out this year.
Earl made that whole Some Rap Songs Style famous,and made some rappers that make music like him (Mach-Hommy,Mavi) popular.
With Both Mach-Hommy and Mavi featured,we know that this movement isnt stopping any time soon.
the whole sLUms Collective brought out some great projects this year,and while i didn´t like Mach-Hommys Project,I REALLY loved "Let the Sun Talk" by ... read more

"Kiwanuka" is a beatiful Soul-Singer-Songwriter Album.
What Michael brings to the Table with this project is phenomenal.
Not only are very moving and thoughtfull lyrics on here-,the instrumentation is sooo good.
Every Song Feels like a complete piece of music,nothing sounds unfinished in any way and it just sounds like the project Kiwanuka wanted to release.
everything on here fits so perfectly into this.
And what i like the most about this project is that it is accessable.

[EDIT: 85-->92]
Returning to this in preparation for EUSEXUA was such a weird experience for me because I've flipped twice on this album now. The first time I heard this album, I was blown away by twigs' singing and songwriting, the emotions where hitting me in a very strong fashion, but that was at a time where I didn't understand the intricacies of lyricism, production and writing nearly as much as I do now, and somehow this album did not stay in my mind with a flattering ... read more

A Great Debut Album from Yxngxr1.
"Childhood Dreams" is probably the most "vibe-heavy" and nostalgic project I´ve heard in a while.
While its not the biggest or most complex album ever,it is still accomplishing what it wants to do,and this obviously isn´t supposed to be extremely conceptual or anything.
The dudes just making his incredible,special and one of a kind music.
I´ve never heard anything that sounds like this project.
He chose great ... read more

Boom.
Another Amazing Album Swans.
Not Much to say about it man,its just so great.
Its just...beautiful,crazy,scary,calm,loud and ugly at the same time.
It started out calm and beautiful with "Hums" and "Annaline"
And Ends Crazy,terrifying and all over the place with "My Phantom Limb".
I loved it.
Right now it is a 9.5/10 for me.
The Rating might go higher or lower later on,maybe it will become a 10 for me,maybe an 8...who knows...

Favourite Tracks:Annaline,The ... read more
