After 5 years from his last studio LP, Tedua is finally back and well, before getting this record we got a couple mixtapes and an EP, because this album originally had to be dropped in 2020, but due to covid Tedua delayed it and instead gave us those two mixtapes and that drill EP but now, the record is finally here, it respects all the build up from 2018 to now and the hype? Absolutely not, but let's make a quick dive into this, first of all, conceptually is nonsensical to say the least, for ... read more
What can I say? I kinda forgot how this sounded and well, wow, it's just as good as I remembered it to be, I'm completely stunned by the productions, his flows and the gloomy esthethic he decided to give to this record, there's not a single moment where I felt the record was boring or even remotely mediocre or bad, every track goes hard especially in the third act where there are two of my favourites tracks off the whole LP, "VENGEANCE" and "BLACK METAL TERRORIST", the beat ... read more
I kinda hated this when it came out because it wasn't nothing like Imperial or TA13OO but relistening to this was actually exciting, it's an energy packed fun LP that gets you charged up easily, also, Denzel's flow are top tier as always.

π³οΈπ HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! (PT. I)
This album is truly beautiful, an emotionful trip through Frank Ocean's life and feelings, in which we could find marvelous productions and soft and relaxing slow paced but passionate singing that create the perfect harmony, I won't talk about the lyrics because there's so much to analyze but I particularly appreciated the lyrics in "Pink Matter" and "Bad Religion", this last one has a whole analogy between sexuality and religion ... read more
It's hard to review this record, I'm literally speechless, everything sound completely outdated and generic, he runs out of ideas maybe at the 4th track and after that, is just a copy and paste of previous songs, it's not unlistenable or bad but painfully unoriginal, corny and tedious, also, I want to create a petition for rappers to stop using that obnoxious mattress spring sample in songs where they talk about sex, just stop, it fucking sucks and everybody already did that shit years ... read more
It's a solid mixtape and what basically made Tedua famous in 2016, probably most of his best material is on this tape, there are a lot of iconic tracks such as "Lingerie" or "Buste della spesa" both produced by Charlie Charles and listening to them now makes me feel a bit of nostalgia and melancholy for the period when the 2016's fresh rap Italian scene came out (Sfera Ebbasta, Izi, Tedua, Rkomi, Ghali), it was such a great time for Italian rap, each one of them had distinct ... read more
With this third and last part the record is finally complete! And it's been an amazing experience overall, I haven't been this invested in a pop-rap/synthpop record for such a long time, this record just makes me want to sing at the top of my lungs all the lyrics from the first to the last track, it's so energic and vibrant in all of its parts, from the singing to the productions to the attitude, each member has its own reason to be on a track, whether that'ill be Piccolo or Erin with their ... read more
PLEASURE IS A RIGHT!
Where do I even start? Everything on this album is majestic, every song has many different sections with different structures from one another, the productions are marvelous, the variety of instruments used also is absolutely shocking, synthethizers, pianos, basses, violins, trumpets, saxophones and so many more and thanks to the diversity of instruments there are also so many elements in every instrumental that take from a lot of diverse genres, for example, the song ... read more
Enjoyed pretty much the majority of the record but KAYTRANADA's productions are what really made it good and stand out, don't get me wrong I enjoyed Aminé's rapping but it isn't that interesting, I would've preferred if he used more flows also lyrically it's a bit meh, so KAYTRANADA is definitely the MVP on this album but aside from this i'm listening this album multiple times as a whole and it's good, especially for the summer vibes it gives on tracks like "Rebuke" or ... read more
The umpteenth Emis Killa album where he sings in the most obnoxious way possible, does horrible choruses and raps about being the best rapper alive but this time he tried to do a concept album about films, where each track is directly linked to a film and the results are awful since almost no track is connected whatsoever to the film he was trying to reference, just maybe some phrases here and there but not much more, plus, the whole album is just a playlist, the tracklist structure is ... read more
Everything on this repack is completely awful when compared to the fantastic chorus sang by Giorgia in "L'ULTIMA CANZONE" she just has a beautiful voice and delivered a wonderful performance, without her that song would've been mediocre at best and yeah this was pretty much my review of this repack, nothing more to say about it, it's more of the same and an almost effortless extension to the main album.

A good pop-rock track, this was actually one of my least favourite singles from "FUORISTRADA" but it grew on me a lot, I love especially how the last verse sounds.
He waited a whole year to release this reissue and it's alright, he constantly says how people didn't understand his record and how his enemies are buying bots to manipulate the general opinion on this record and that there's nothing wrong with his music, that we just didn't understand his artistic vision but he clearly knows what was wrong in the base album since on this repack a majority of the tracks are just wannabe bangers but I have to say that some of them are good, the productions are ... read more
A very distasteful release by Dark Polo Gang (DPG) member Dylan (or Pyrex), after a couple of not so good records with the DPG he decided to return on the scene with "LOVE IS WAR" and this is pretty bad too, it completely lacks of charisma, originality and personality, this whole album feels soulless, it's just a bunch of corporate pop tracks written and sang in the most corny and obnoxious way possible, there's not a single good chorus (except the ones in which he doesn't sing) or ... read more
Listening to this was a pleasure, I was waiting for this record to come out for a long time and it's finally here, after 5 years from his 9th record "Fenomeno", Fabri Fibra returns with his 10th studio album, "Caos" which is a welcomed gift for all the fans that have been following him since his debut album "Turbe giovanili" in 2002, this new album is fullfilled with references to his old stuff and whilst lyrically isn't that brilliant in terms of content, it still ... read more
I don't want to waste too much time writing a review of this, it's not worth it, let's just say that the productions are awful (luckily this type of instrumentals died in 2015), his flow and choruses are one dimensional and just a copy and paste of each other, he doesn't have a unique and distinct style, he just sounds like a cheap version of Guè/Marracash and sometimes even Fabri Fibra and to add the cherry on top, the lyrics are terrible, also, it's funny how still to this day (and on ... read more
This new bnkr44 album abandons the synthpop vibes and esthethic that characterized their previous record to approach a new pop+punk rock-ish sound and whilst I think that this new sound fits them a bit worse than the synthpop one, I still think this is a valid record with some really good highlights and great productions and performances, and it's exactly what I expect bnkr44's music to be, unpretentious, easy and fun music to listen to, I like every single track and I've been listening to this ... read more
