i dont know where to even start with this album
and so i'm not going to
ever
that's it.
"I'm a star thrower, yeah, coming straight for you -- Know what I came here for"
could stay more true to the name, didnt blow my speakers enough
fun for sure
what is with modern rappers obsession with poop
i thought i heard enough about poop on the 21 savage album, but then theres thing
this is actual 🔥 though
"that shit cray like them niggas in paris"
past merely the intro and first verse and i already firmly advocate AOTY add a negative number feature to the ratings so that albums are actually on a scale of a 1-200, with all of the negatives being inherently offensive to your ears.
racist, pretentious, painfully average and soulless.
Holy Shit dude 💀💀💀💀

turnt tf up on Sit and Wait with that 🔥🔥 flow on the transition to second half of the track.
four tracks in and i think this dude is seriously on to something. there's def some contemporaries doing similar stuff, but this guy has so far some really gorgeous instrumentation and innovative flows and lyrics. Nothing sounds pretentious or ... read more

actively DO not like this songs: use me, pity, get over it, spite, teeth, blindspot, die in this room,
HATE: dead body, on the outside,
SO much late 2000s radiobait tier trash on this thing. NO innovative beats. NO interesting songs. NO lyrical depth. NO vocal innovation either, this thing is seriously garbage. truly a melting pot of other pop contemporaries who have actually established sounds with real substance.

im sort of conflicted with the track "skinny ape". theres parts to it i like, obviously the more exciting upbeat portion, but i think the constant (ape) adlib really takes away from slower part. im not really a fan of the words "skinny" and "ape" both being used at least 50 times each in this track. the ... read more

On favvs - Isolation
"@Toxikwaltz18 If you've heard any AI music before it all has underlying common traits. The instrumental melodies are very rudimentary and generally fall in the same range sonically. The vocals sound horrific, over processed, and genuinely not even real. The lyrics are effectively what you'd expect a computer to say given the title of each track; also just exceptionally poor quality and a total lack of soul or creativity in any facet. It's very blatantly obviously AI and it will likely be removed from Spotify soon, as almost all of their other music has already been removed for being AI."
