EDIT: 10->45 This album sounds much better when I'm not on my ADHD meds ngl. The main issue here is that it's incredibly formulaic and derivative of itself and presents almost no new ideas between tracks, but I don't think that the sound of this project is all that terrible. I think that this project is at its worst when TOPHAMHAT-KYO's rapping isn't able to match the energy of the production, like on Yosomono, but when he does I actually think that this project is ... read more
Overhated. X walked so AGC could run. It's a pretty fun listen with a few highs (MDMA and Freestyle 2 most notably) but ultimately too bloated and repetitive to be worth a relisten, not to mention More Chaos is pretty much a direct improvement on all fronts. Worth a listen if you're a fan of Ken, otherwise I suggest listening to Ken's more recent projects instead.
EDIT: 60->80 after a few listens I feel that enough ideas are presented here to largely justify its length, although I feel like Worms Plastic Earthbound probably doesn't have to be 25 minutes long. It's music best played while doing something else.
INSTRUMENTS DISORDER CLEARS
There are some cool ideas tackled here but its simply too long for what it is and about halfway through I started to feel disengaged. As opposed to the masterpiece that is Instruments Disorder by The ... read more

The pop punk instrumental makes Ron Browz's vocals more tolerable and Ron Browz's vocals make pop punk more interesting. This absolutely shouldn't work but somehow it just does.
Oddwin comes through with a refreshing, laid-back take on rage which suits him perfectly as a rapper and really lands with me. The production is silky smooth throughout the entire project which brings a sense of aesthetic cohesion to the project without it sounding samey at all. Even songs like COACH PURSE which feature a more aggressive delivery from Oddwin still come off as very elegant and unlike a lot of the more mainstream aggressive rage out there. The most interesting part of this album ... read more
Not as good as AGC on first listen but there are some amazing tracks on here. LiveLeak, Diamonds, and Xposed are my 3 favs so far. Will definitely relisten at some point.
REVIEW: If this was tagged as some experimental noise shit yall would love this.
Ken comes through with a large helping of crunchy ass rage tracks that imo deviates quite significantly from AGC in concept, ironic given the title of this project, with Ken mixed much more quietly throughout the entire album, letting the ... read more
Trippie's best. Honorable CNOTE absolutely snapped on this beat and both Trippie and Travis do great over it.
Remove tracks 11-16 and its close to a 10 for me. This album has grown on me so much, the production is fantastic and Ken does a good job keeping up the energy. The lyrics are so stupid but that's part of the reason why I love Ken. Gets a bit boring at the middle, but it ends strong with i need u, being one of Ken's best songs to date. I think I can now confidently say that AGC >> Music.
FAVORITES: Me N My Kup, Succubus, i need u
LEAST FAVORITE: Overtime
I wish this whole album was more like POP OUT production-wise. Not my favorite song off the album, but it had me thinking that this was gonna be an interesting listen at least. But the production throughout this project ends up being largely bland save for a few bangers imo. Features do great for the most part so there's that. Haven't listened to it enough to give it a definitive score yet but for now I'll just say that I found it rather boring.
FAVORITES: GOOD CREDIT, RATHER ... read more
