I mean the lyrics are fun I guess but seriously that beat and production work is just yuck

Favourite: Be Right Now
Worst: The Joker And The Queen
1. Tides - 6
[This actually isn't half bad wtf. I enjoy the emotion he puts into and just that little interlude halfway through was so gentle and added a fair bit. Other than that the production and that beat got annoying towards the end and the lyrics aren't great but not terrible either]
2. Shivers - 1
[Good lord this production is god awful. Lyrics are it's best features but Dead Sheeran's "Bad Habits" (pun ... read more
Favourite: Living Proof
Worst: Old Skin
1. Living Proof - 10
[This is just so beautiful. Genuinely this could be one of the best songs I've heard this year. The instrumental is just so perfect with that slow tempo just makes this feels so deep and you can almost get goosebumps from it. The vocals as well as the lyrics as well just wow.]
2. Harmonia’s Dream - 8
[I feel like lyrically it could've been a little bit stronger with it just being a bit basic at times but that instrumental is ... read more
Not gonna lie here.. embarrassing moment I actually thought Tracy Chapman was guy and after listening to the song for like a year I finally realised Tracy Chapman was a she :/
Favourite: Titanium (Feat. Sia)
Worst: I Just Wanna F. (Feat. Timbaland & Dev)
Disc 1 (Average: 3.6)
1. Where Them Girls At (Feat. Nicki Minaj & Flo Rida) - 3
[Great chorus everything else is just horse crap.]
2. Little Bad Girl (Feat.Taio Cruz & Ludacris) - 3
["They tell me a bad boy" I just knew when I heard this as the first line I knew this was horrendous. Actually don't mind the beat on this as well as the chorus but wow Taio everything else was frickin awful. ... read more
500 REVIEWS!!!!!
Thank you everyone for your support over the last 6 months or so, I loved my time doing pretty much daily album reviews! For my 500th Review I've decided to do an album from my second favourite artist of all time Jigga Jay-Z! Pretty much every album I've ever heard I've submitted to this website for you guys to a read of my thoughts. However this album and a few others I've saved for other milestones I will hopefully reach whilst on this page. Once again Thank you for spending ... read more
Another enjoyable track by Ansvh! The lyrics on this were quite good for the most part with the flow as well being excellent. The production in terms of the mixing of the vocals I found to be a little bit off and a couple of listens it gets a bit draining in that sense. The chorus I found to be energetic and catchy as well. One last issue I would have is that this felt too short and could've had another minute or so added to it I reckon.
Favourite: Feels Like Summer
Worst: Outside!
1. Feels Like Summer - 9
[I like this. I know it's in the title but seriously what a great summer track. Ty Dollar Sign even though was brief on those hooks was just so good. Vince as well just makes this such a fun enjoyable track]
2. Outside! - 7
[Love the transition between tracks, took me 20s to notice lol. Lyrically again this was really fun and interesting in the choice of lyrics probably lowers it a bit but still not a bad song]
3. Don't ... read more
Thanks @Smile for the Recommendation :)
Favourite: I miss you, I'm sorry
Worst: minor
1. Friend - 7
[Not too bad like she shows a lot of emotion in her vocals and lyrics are really deep but she isn't being too expansive in this track. Again I don't mind the chorus as well as the production on this but the lyrics are just to safe]
2. 21 - 7
[Basically the same ideas as "Friend" with it being pretty relatable and quite catchy but the lyrics are just so basic and the song is too ... read more
Favourite: Lucky You (feat. Joyner Lucas)
Worst: Nice Guy (feat. Jessie Reyez)
1. The Ringer - 3
[This felt so uncomfortable listening to this uggh. This just feel so unfinished and yuck those lyrics are so terrible. Production on this is terrible as well. I just don't get why this has decent streams?
2. Greatest - 3
[Far out these lyrics? I mean does one of the GOATS not realise that this guy just has no flow or just anything like that whatsoever. This is just so confusing. Also that chorus? ... read more
Congrats @Pajamas on the release! :)
Favourite: ghost pepper salad
Worst: breezy
1. ghost pepper salad - 5
[Lyrics aren't too bad but for me the vocals need to be re done. The beat and instrumental I really like but it clearly doesn't fit in with the vocals on the rapping. The vocals on the chorus were good but just didn't fit with the rapping. I also felt like this track felt too short and just needed a little more tbh]
2. breezy - 2
[The production work done on the instrumental I really ... read more
Favourite: Kelso (Blue sky)
Worst: Ode to the blue
1. Followed the ocean - 3
[Far out just some Radio Buffering for like 3 mins]
2. Unclean mind - 3
[Am I supposed to be able to hear the lyrics? All I can is someone strumming that Guitar way too hard. Never thought I would have to go to Genius to listen to a damn pop song. It's literally the same thing over and over again on repeat with a 15 second loop]
3. Ode to the blue - 2
[This track has absolutely no direction whatsoever. Basically the ... read more
I'm really getting into Gracie Abrams. Her previous song "Feels Like" was one of my favourites of the year so far. The follow up from that was a really good follow up. I like the approach she took to this one and just those vocals make it so grand and just so deep. I actually really like the instrumental on this as well and the production very nice :)
I swear to god... If i hear the phrase "Scub Tha Ground" one more time today I will do something. I don't know what but i'll do something.
Also if you were interested I search it up on genius and "Scrub the ground" is mentioned 70 TIMES :)
This is the ABBA that I like. I really enjoyed this single and for me this feels a lot like the ABBA from back in the day, it's so well produced and this just overall impressed me :)
I actually kinda liked Megan Thee Stallion verse but the rest was just so bad. I mean the production was honestly so terrible, Ozuna was clearly not at his best on this I mean it's like "Oh hey I did a big commercial song with Ozuna like 4 years ago so let's try and squeeze him on anyway". Genuinely didn't even know if LISA was even on this till I finished the song and saw the cover
Far out this is so forgettable. The vocals for me are so disappointing on this with about every other feature on this tbh. The instrumental is horrible and the production just yuck easily the worst feature. He seems after such a huge commercial start to his career is beginning to slip away as well, kinda sad I guess tbh
I wish Pop Smoke was on this :(
Anyway I felt Lil Tjay was really good on this, Fivio Foreign considering his feature on "Off The Grid" I expected a little bit more but still not bad. Didn't know who Kay Flock was before this but the amount of energy he put into this for me was just way too much. It made the song a little unbalanced but overall not too bad of a track :)
