Shuggie's got the groove, too bad the funk genre has progressed past this standard, artists like Funkadelic really set an insane bar for funk. Shuggie shows off his instrumental talents and whips up soul food, he's got the energy and the voice without a doubt. Quite a few highlights and I will give tremendous credit where it's due, he shines brightly in his effortless attempts at jamming out. We get all kinds of instrument love throughout this LP. Some tracks do fall short to ... read more
A washed attempt at establishing an opium sound. Very annoying adlib usage mixed with lazy writing that doesn't even try to be energetic and full of personality. It's Carti from wish with sub par repetition, nothing too redeeming about this album but it's listenable I guess. The only reason I got through this album was thankfully due to how short the songs were.

The topic of paranoia is actually capsulated immensely well! Between the lyrical substance and music video showcase, Tyler speaks on the feeling of being constantly anxious. This theme possibly was inspired from his real life situations of fans sometimes disregarding his personal boundaries and coming off a bit extreme. The song stands nicely on it's own but will most likely come across much more in depth when the album drops. Tyler's more heavy rock style of production helps guide ... read more
Hana Vu may not push boundaries but there's still a sweet distinct energy this album has to offer. Speaking on the aspect of originality and/or a fresh sound, Hana hasn't exactly found her spot yet. However, she shows heart and a willingness to give the music her all. The surface levels of production and lyricism gives her a more meshed outlooked in eyes, but that doesn't mean the album isn't still comforting for what it is. The vocals are absolutely listen worthy in my ... read more
Jeff continues to raise the bar with every transition. Love the pop-punk representation he brings.
A more interesting J. Cole with hunger and culture behind the music as well as a calmer version of Benny the Butcher.
Every bit of his musical talent thrives in West Coast influence. I find myself falling in love with the Jazz instrumental bits sprinkled onto the album. Blu seems to have a clear idea of what path in hip hop he wants to take, and as time goes on his plans for perfection will only become much clearer. Currently the highs of this project sit within his captivating sound both in ... read more
To put it simple.. Sufjan sets us on a journey of tears, healing wounds, and sparking hope. I couldn't ask for a better album to release emotions to.
Pure poetry from Ms. Apple and my personal favorite to revisit.
The magic of shared love is undefeated. Moments of heartfelt devotion and cheerfulness being spread. I think John Lennon did quite the job making a name for himself outside of The Beatles.
Another cross, another BANGER album.
Chat Pile has not come to play, when I tell you they serve; THEY SERVE. The single Masc has been in heavy rotation of mine for quite some time now and brought me high expectations of what's to come. The album opens up just as heavy handed as it ends, leaving constant destruction in it's path. Noise Rock has always been a favorite genre of mine due to being so extreme in energy, grabbing the soul of it's listener and aggressively shaking it! ... read more

Can't get enough of what's being brewed on this album, easily his best project by Miles. (Everyone laughs)
My first listen to Ka was back in 2022 and his pen truly is different. Wish his success went further in his time on Earth. RIP Ka.
Drugs, parties, more drugs, dancing. This album is about as insane as it gets. I think it aged so well.
I feel safe within the walls of this record. The waves of emotion that wash over me really help this album succeed in its efforts. Bill wants to be heard and his words are loud and clear.
