Loved this. Will be playing this constantly

Tinashe follows up BB/ANG3L with (unsurprisingly) yet another great album. At a certain point, I think people have to start recognizing how consistent she’s been and how incapable of missing she is, because it’s getting ridiculous.

Endearingly and earnestly corny

Like this a lot first listen but this is definitely the kind of album for me where I have to play it a bunch to know if I love it or just like it a lot.

I’m a changed person thank you Sade

Has potential to be solid if it was finished!

Peggy w guitars 🔥🔥

I think this is pretty great and has a lot of highs, but it's a little too messy and all over the place to completely work as a cohesive album (which makes sense given it's a soundtrack for his movie).

While I don’t enjoy this as much as “Like…?”, and while I’m not a huge fan of how her personality and almost goofy energy on that project has been kinda scaled back in place of a cleaner sound and more expensive production value, this is still a mostly enjoyable time that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Yes, she is a one-trick pony with minimal flows and wayyy too many poop bars, but on the whole her shtick just works for me. She sets out to make mindless dumb ... read more

While I still enjoyed this quite a bit, kinda disappointed with it off first listen just based off how much I love Denzel Curry

Before I get into reviewing this, can I just talk about the irony of how Eminem has a bar late on the album criticizing the “sorry white rappers” he helped spawn, yet “Habits” is a fucking GARBAGE song that is barely one step removed from being a Tom MacDonald song????

Anyway, while on the whole this is definitely the best sounding stuff Eminem has made in a while, he still just can’t help but get in his own way. There’s some pretty solid stuff here, but ... read more

Really liked this but couldn’t help but feel that this James Blake & Lil Yachty album was held back by the fact that I found the James Blake contributions to be much more intriguing than the Lil Yachty ones…

I have been waiting for Megan to drop her "great" album, and while this is maybe her best project and definitely her best project since"Fever", it still doesn't quite hit its full potential. Really high highs with very solid performances from Megan and well-produced overall, but just too long and inconsistent.

This album feels like Camila and her label saw the success of Rosalia’s MOTOMAMI and focus grouped an album to try and shamelessly replicate it and water it down for a more casual audience that would find MOTOMAMI too weird. I mean, they even got El Guincho to come produce it. But compared to most of Camila’s music and much of the pop music out there, I’ll take a listenable and well-produced inauthentic rip-off of an amazing album over a bland and boring album ... read more

As another tumultuous RCA album rollout from an R&B artist (like Tinashe’s Joyride), this is surprisingly pretty good and a solid display of Normani’s talent and potential as an artist. Yes, it still has the clear signs of a major label product (Gunna feature, single released 3 years prior, etc), but songs like “Insomnia” and “Tantrums” with James Blake are great and make me want to see her free of the record label system.

This is all over the place but the highs are pretty high

It’s very cool and very rare to hear an album on the day of its release that is so obviously going to be looked back on as both extremely iconic and as a perfect encapsulation of its time period musically. This is 2024 internet stan culture in album form.

An incredibly impressive album from Vince Staples and probably my favorite rap album so far this year

Water themed album covers having a hell of a year so far
