This album has some of the very best from the 80s. There’s a few duds but overall I think the album is a great listening experience. Shout is an incredible opening to this album. It’s such a groovy song. A lot of these songs just hit really hard and that’s what makes this album so good. Everybody Wants to Rule the World is obviously one of the greatest songs ever made. The chorus of that song is just pure magic. It isn’t my favorite on the album however. Head Over Heels ... read more
Albums I need to listen to to finish the AOTY top 100 - #22
Well it turns out Luca isn’t a glazer this is just peak. Metal isn’t the genre I’m the most familiar with but I have been listening to some great metal albums recently and I can confidently say that this is my first metal 100.

Every track is a terrifying look at ... read more
Edit: I’ve seen a bunch of rumors that this is just an appetizer and we’re getting another album and that definitely makes sense given how unusual this album is for Kendrick
HOLY FUCKING SHIT KENDRICK DROPPED AND I FOUND OUT FROM A TIK TOK WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON😭
I was not expecting this album to come out this year at all so I’m very caught off guard by this. I am however really really impressed by everything Kenny did on this album. While I do think it is one of his ... read more
This songs pretty much responsible for getting me into hip hop so yea this is my favorite sample ever
What a fucking hidden gem on this site. This wasn’t even on my radar until Les Fleurs charted as the highest rated song oat and I’m super glad that this is starting to get attention because it is absolutely gorgeous. The instrumentals are incredibly climactic and overwhelming and her vocals are simply put heavenly. They complement each other incredibly well. This albums also incredibly consistent throughout. I kinda struggled to pick out the worst song of the bunch. The best song ... read more
