Clinton Sparks & Eminem - Anger Management 3
42

38 tracks of straight mid. I came back to this project since I forgot to listen to it, but maybe I shouldn't have. At first I kinda liked it, but it lost me at around track 20 compleatly.

The Carters - EVERYTHING IS LOVE
70

Didn't expect Beyoncé to rap like that... I think this project was successful for what it tried to be, and brought their styles together really well. But despite that, I probably will never revisit this expect for APESHIT.

Gucci Mane - World War 3, Vol. 2: Molly
67

I only listened to this because it's labeled as a Metro project too, but he only produced like 20% of this... anyways, this project is surprisingly not as bad as I thought it would be. Has some bangers but it's mostly just filler.

Kanye West - Second Semester: Kanye Essentials 2
68

This is the weakest Kanye mixtape I heard so far... it has around the same length as the other ones, but there are a lot of just avarage tracks compared to his other ones. Still not bad at all.

Metro Boomin - 19 & Boomin
43

One of Metro's first projects, and this awful cover really resembles that well. As for the tracks, they are avarage or below avarage, with decent production from Metro. At first the songs might sound cool, but if you take just half a minute to think about it, they really aren't.

Kanye West - Ferris Bueller & Plain Pat Present: Behind The Beats - Kanye West
84

College Drouput era Kanye beats + cute interludes... you can't go wrong with it. Forgot to rate but here it is.

Kanye West - Kanye: The Essentials Collection
80

Not much to say, another mixtape by Kanye that has amazing production and rap performances. The long freestyle at the end is probably the coolest part though.

JAY-Z - 4:44
93

Jay's retirement for real now... and it's amazing. Probably him at his most experimental and vulnerable. No I.D. did an amazing job with the production, it's consistent all the ways through, and every track has meaningful lyrics and advices from the businessman himself. I loved it.

JAY-Z - Magna Carta... Holy Grail
72

This project is really weird... while it's grand, got great production, great lyrics, great bars and wordplay, decent features and a good concept, it feels so empty and I can't explain why. All I know is, it's not bad... but nowhere near amazing neither.

Marvin Gaye - You're The Man
82

Wow, a great posthumous album. I'm glad these tracks got released, they have a lot of replay value. This album is just a vibe. Not as good as his classics, but still, it's definetly worth a listen.

JAY-Z - The Blueprint 3
80

Neeeew Yooork-
Okay, my opinion here might be cooked, but I really enjoyed this album. The lows are really low, but the highs are really high, and overall I think it's much better than The Blueprint 2, but obviously not better than the first. Production is great too. My main issue with this album is that some features feel perfect, some unnecessary and corny.

JAY-Z - American Gangster
77

It starts of slow and weak, but gets progressively better. While it has a few highlights, though, it's nothing close to his classics like Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint or The Black Album. Also, this album has some great bars, better than on Kingdom Come.

Marvin Gaye - Vulnerable
66

It's short, sweet, vulnerable (duh)... and posthumous. Feels unnecessary, they could barely make a 28 minute project, EVEN though they added alternate tracks too... But overall, none of the songs are bad.

Marvin Gaye - Romantically Yours
58

This is a compilation of Marvin's earlier, more smooth and calm works. It's really mediocre, feels like his first few projects expect a bit more polished. Posthumous albums just ain't it.

JAY-Z - Kingdom Come
61

Jay's comeback. It has many good song concepts, good lyrics, and even the beats are fine, but overall? Really boring, forgettable with really nothing too much to point out in it. Minority Report is definetly a highlight.

Marvin Gaye - Dream of a Lifetime
32

This album is not that bad, but after hearing track 3 I felt sexually assaulted the whole way through, so I'm NOT giving this a good score. What was Marvin thinking when making that? And more importantly, what was the label thinking of releasing it?

Jay-Z & Linkin Park - Collision Course
84

Really weird collab, but unexpectedly good? I never thought a rock and hip-hop collab could be this fire. The critics were harsh on this one, I think it's easily worth a listen.

JAY-Z & R. Kelly - Unfinished Business
20

hmm i think diddy is the only one that could save this project

Marvin Gaye - Midnight Love
81

So this is the last project Marvin himself ever released... this journey was worth it for sure.
About this project, it sounds more bold and he experimented with new sounds which turned out great. While Sexual Healing carries, the rest of the album is really funky and fun.

JAY-Z - The Re-Mix
75

I mean, it's cool? It's just mostly remixes to tracks from The Black Album with a few other remixes and interludes. The originals sound much better.

On Marvin Gaye - I Want You
"@TDbrick77 I'm not the best person to ask this from since I didn't listen to too much summer albums so far, but the first thing that popped up in my mind is Hotter Than July by Stevie Wonder (which is overall his 5th or 6th best, above a 90+ rating for me). Honorable mention to Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale by Tyler, The Creator."
On WESTSIDEDOOM - Westside Doom
"@OSHEE Ngl I went harsh on it, second sentance is wild so I'll delete that one."
On J. Cole - 4 Your Eyez Only
"@swurv Ty! This project is special to me, I rarely give out 100s."
On Lil Wayne & DJ Drama - Dedication 3
"@gmansanders67 I do personally think Wayne is one of the best rappers alive, but we cannot ignore how many flops he had in his career though, even in his prime. He can cook up amazing tracks when he wants, but when he doesn't gives it all his attention, he makes projects like D3."
On 21 Savage - american dream
"Yeah, wanted to get them over with, I listened to all of these projects already. From now comes the new ones."
