While 78 is a good grade, I can't lie, I am dissapointed.
The main problem with the album is not the amount tracks but the sequencing of the album, it starts off very high energy, the first 7 tracks are all amazing, then it goes dark and moody and suddently picks back up with timeless, the changes between slow/dark rnb music and more pop songs: take me back to LA, give me mercy, drive, red terror which make the album flow terribly.
Furthermore, what's with the stupid skits, he ... read more
Honest a super underrated album! I went into this expecting mid, but surpirsingly I like nearly every song on here, the sound pallet is clean like the previous album however refined and a bit more experimental... and it works! I normally dislike techno but he pulls it off really well on this album and shows quite a lot creativity, unlike on his last 3 releases...
Anyhow, my favs are ferxoo 30, gangsters y pistolas, ferxxxo 151, bubalu, luces de tecno, ey chory, privilegios.

Honestly, not bad for a first mixtape, it gives a good look into what is to come on later albums. The production is on point, just that he's not at 100% on every songs, the highlights on here are the intro and outro for sure.

I get that for a flamenco record this might be peak, but overall for me this is a painfull experience! I really enjoyed the touches of flamenco in her other albums, so after seeing the ratings on this album, I thought fuck it. I have given it a fair 4 listens, this is just too monotonous, too similar from one song to the next. I can't tell half of these songs apart, the singing as well suffers from this.
Anyhow, that's me done with Rosalia's discography!
Overall, the album is not good. I understand these are old songs, some of them from his first EP which have been released on streaming but that doesn't mean I'm gonna pretend that it's decent. The intro is an absolute banger; It's a concept songs about how to make a "hit", I have never heard a song like this, it's super original and it sounds really good as well. It actually reminds me a bit of dr carter from lil wayne on the carter 3 where is saving his ... read more
So in this first mixtape/EP by rauw, we see him making some romantic trap music, which to be honest is not good; actually, it sounds a bit corny. These sort of themes fit way better on reggaeton, and it's trully impressive the step up from this to Afrodisiaco in just 1 year. The evolution is just colossal, I honestly can't believe how much better and how much more professional the following album sounds.
Conclusion: NO ROMANTIC TRAP PLEASE

This is better than the EP he dropped with Yandel, but it's just a bit bland, nothing justifies the release of this.
He has collaborated many times with sky, and at this point he is making his sound very redundant. Feid needs to take a break and make a more focused project with some more original songs, the problem is not reggeaton; just look at bad bunny or Tainy, they're still innovating with the sound and Feid just seems to have been in his comfort zone since ferxxocalipse.
I can't lie, this deluxe is super overrated, nothing here is really terrible, but damn is it a boring album. The worst song is easily BMF, and the best is 30 for 30, the rest of the songs feel like left overs to me that are all just decent. We mostly see sza aimlessly rifting over these beats. The songs just lack direction in my opinion.
Final Verdict: No more deluxe please
Overall, the album is better than the previous one, a bit more care has gone into the selection of the songs and the production but it just feels a bit unfinished and dry at point.
It's not as bad as the reviews make it out to be, the first leg of the album is good, however, after love letter it falls apart. Following that the only good songs are celebrate, jeffrey and spend it.
Final verdict: Don't release another album
Edit: 91-->94 ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE
Edit 2: 94 --> 96 Still can't give a 10 yet
Edit 3: 96 --> 100 I just can't deny it anymore, Kloufrens is fire, I was wrong, I never expected an album this good by Bad Bunny Lol
After hearing the first 2 singles I was expecting something decent, but OH MY DAYS WAS I SURPRISED, bad bunny has finally entered masterpiece territory.
Starting with the length, 1 hour, 17 songs, which is a good length for an album of this caliber, could be a ... read more
My least favourite album of his, although still quite good, I just feel like the first half is very strong and the second is just okay.
Honestly the extra tracks kinda complete the album, it doesn't make it better or worse, but just keeps up the same energy throughout. Good job denzel curry.
This album is like him trying to force himself to be experimental which just comes off a bit akwark sometimes. He's clearly way more in his comfort zone when making simple bangers like CHROME or Alpha. I just hope he lets go of all that "I feel like i have reached a level in music that I can retire" talk, because he does have some progress to make and it doesn't mean trying to follow down that experimental road like on his last 2 albums, he needs to go back to his roots and ... read more
First listen was insane however the more I have listened the more it has grown off me, because it carries a lot of that essence from CMIYGL which I enjoyed but isn't really an album I have gone back too. The songs that stick the most out to me are the crazy igor/flowerboy ish type songs, aka st chroma, noid, like him which omg is a 10/10 and possibly tyler's best song ever it's just so emotional, IHYFYWH, and mother from the physical edition which is the second best song on the ... read more
This is a great album from mr rauw. He has been the second leading face of reggaeton after Bad Bunny now after his biggest release up until now being Vice Versa. In this album we see him leaning more into his latin influences given the title of the album; cosa nuestra homage to Willie Collon's album cosa nuestra, Willie Collon being probably the biggest face of salsa music in New York. The intro being quite similar to the track ausencia on that album and an absolute banger. It's ... read more
Overall it did grow on me; just not that much XD.
I have never been a fan of uzi, but I don't get why the fans don't like this. It's him trying to be experimental.
The thing that throws me off the most on the album is the off beat rapping and terrible choruses like on paars in the mars, the rush, she stank, black hole, goddard song... It's like he forgot how to make a catchy song, those I just cited are all TERRIBLE but appart from that the rest is decent, just your ... read more
On this album, we see legend, Chencho Corleone doing what he does best.
It's overall very consistent, however, there is a fair amount of filler: such as hora de salir, maldad, kamasu, tremenda ansiedad. As for Himalaya I feel like it's an underwhelming end to this very interesting album.
As for the positives, we see chencho going from colorful to colorful beat, laying sticky choruses with his syrupy voice like it's not even any effort. And omg, chencho and rauw just never miss, ... read more
So much about how this was supposed to be his magnum opus for something so generic. At this point in time the only album from him I've heard is antes de ameri, where the idea was that it was supposed to be like a warmup for his masterpiece and it turns out that this warmup was significantly better.
I enjoyed the previous, I could tell he put some thought into it but on here we have some of the most generic trap/rap music I have heard in while. And it's not like future who although ... read more
This album/mixtape was a really unnecessary release, it's not even bad, just underwhelming given the previous album he dropped. Also being a mixtape, he should have cut the tracklist down to 12 tracks. It would have made that album way better.
The highlights though are really good, aka, Ready to cook up, south of france, brazzier, surfing a tsunami. I'd say 6 more months of work on this and it would be significantly better,
Overall, you don't really feel like time passes slow listening to this. It feels like he wanted to make a chill album, but overall it is a bit underwhelming. The only bad song here, is apple pay.
