Post Malone - AUSTIN
60

this album is definitely Posts weirdest one to exist, he hadn't explored this sort of sound much prior or after. despite this, there r quite a few gems on this, and while I don't think Posts voice naturally works with this sound, he made ways to make it sound good. my only complaints are A) sometimes he went into a vocal register too high for him, and B) some of the lyrics didn't feel right, not like they weren't Post Malone lyrics, but just over this style of music. overall ... read more

Young Thug - Slime Season
77

for this being so long, it's low-key pretty consistent. if it was cut down and was as good as the first tracks, this could've easily been like an 85, but a lot of the sounds get done a lot and it's a little bloated

Daft Punk - Human After All
50

this felt so under baked. I only got like 2 or3 good songs, with only Robot Rock being on par with anything from their past album. a lot of good ideas, but it felt like trying to rip off Homework, except at least with homework there was variation and it was interesting on a decent amount of tracks. this felt like they made like 2 or 3 sections and played them on loop. way too repetitive, way to barebones, theh should've taken more time, these felt like demos

Nas - It Was Written
75

this was cool, some it felt like it was trying to redo the magic of Illmatic tho. a lot of cool flows, it was overall very good, just nothing that stuck out to me near as much as Illmatic

Chance the Rapper - Tree
50

Wayne verse was ok, Smino does good as per usual, but chance is just doing too much. the production is too busy for him to be doing as much as he is doing

Drake - What Did I Miss?
75

kinda a vibe ngl

60

I thought this had a few good songs, I wasn't huge on the Yachtys sing, but I think Eminem had a good verse and JID is good a ever

JACKBOYS & Travis Scott - JACKBOYS
59

listening in preparation for Jackboys 2. it would be a lot higher if A) Travis didn't put that buns remix, if it felt more complete. the only song that feels like a Jackboys song is Gang Gang, then it's just like 2 Don songs, a Sheck song a Thug song and a Pop song. it felt super unnecessary to exist, but the bangers were tough. hopefully the sequel is more like Gang Gang and not just random singles

Laufey - Lover Girl
80

I'm bossa novaing it

Denzel Curry - Imperial
80

bangers so good I wasn't even aware he was conscious rapping too. a couple weaker tracks but overall another amazing project by Denzel, and it has been aging pretty decently sonically

La Reezy - Welcome to La Reezyana Vol. 1
58

I'm not gonna lie this would be a lot higher if this dudes lyrics weren't as corny. like I Look Good felt so cringe to me. that being said, I have followed this guy on insta for a while and recently saw he got a Kendrick co sign, so I figured I'd check him out. his flow reminds me of Big Boi, and delivery reminds me of Andre and Kenny. I think he has a lot of potential, he just needs to work on his lyrics and maybe trying out different production styles. if he does that I see a ... read more

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT
80

highlight of this whole album is both the progression of each song and the production. I really liked the sombre cuts like skinny or the greatest, and the radio cuts were cool too. I wish she would've explored more tonality changes cuz variation in the songs where it was varied made them impeccable. I also appreciate the experimentation with electropop but some songs it was not needed and kinda made the mood feel off. overall I really really liked the more ambient moody tracks, very good ... read more

Clipse - Hell Hath No Fury
84

while I preferred the bangers from Lord Willing, this album is much more consistent, which helps to put it over. also the bar work is still amazing on both, I just prefer the sound of lord willing. as an overall project tho, this is better and is heat

McKinley Dixon - Magic, Alive!
82

yall weren't kidding when you said this was an AOTY contender, this was amazing. this score may up, i will say some of this was a little too chaotic in the production, but this was very impressive as a piece of art

OutKast - Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik
82

so many bangers, I really liked the production, just less going on then their other projects

Offset - Bodies
90

dude this was so tuf, jid killed it as per usual but offset snapped too

PinkPantheress - Close to you
75

pretty chill, sounds like her old music

Clipse - So Be It
98

guys this might end up being aoty im ngl this is icredible. also everyone is focusing on the pusha verse and the production, but dude Malice is killing it, he is 52 and not swearing, but he sounds so vicious and has such good bars that you couldn't even really tell

50 Cent - Get Rich or Die Tryin'
85

this man was hook-maxxing bc these choruses were so catchy. masterclass in gangster rap, banger after banger, and doesn't overstay its welcome. peak idk how some of y'all are hating

JAY-Z - The Blueprint
94

banger after banger, surprised on the variety of lyrics too. some of these beats are insane (thanks Kanye), and a lot of it still stands up today. very cool

"yeah I mean I wouldn't say Logic is always corny, tho as someone who uses to listen to him religiously in middle school, he can be a cornball, especially when he is ripping off other rappers (ex: the entirety of Everybody or CODM) I'll look into the Cordae album, thanks for the recommendation"
