Joey Valence & Brae - HYPERYOUTH
88

Super great vibes with this one. Although I didn't enjoy it quite as much as NO HANDS, this scratches all the same itches, and the more low-key moments are nice too. It kinda falls off a bit towards the end, but not by much.

My top three tracks are HYPERYOUTH, WASSUP, and BUST DOWN.
My least favorite track is THE PARTY SONG.

BTS - ARIRANG
41

This is a neat direction in terms of sound, I've never heard K-Pop that sounds like this before, but overall I wasn't impressed. Production from Mike Will Made It and JPEGMAFIA is really cool, and I really did like a lot of the production here, but most of the songs are just kinda boring. Some of the lyrics are pretty awful, too. Some songs were alright on a first listen, but there's nothing I would come back to.

My top three songs are Body To Body, Merry Go Round, and One More ... read more

Frank Ocean - Blonde

Such intense emotion in such a quiet soundscape. I really appreciated the symbolism used throughout the album. Some tracks I didn't love, but the high points are astronomical. It really feels like Frank hurt every time he went into the studio for this one, and to be honest I'm not surprised he hasn't dropped an album since this one. Quit while you're ahead, and also give yourself some space, I guess.

My top three tracks are Pink + White, Pretty Sweet, and Nights (Honorable ... read more

A$AP Rocky - Don't Be Dumb
68

Rocky dropping after 8 years to give us the album of all time 🥶

I wasn't a fan of this one. This album isn't bad, it's kinda just not my vibe. There were some standout tracks for me, but in general it's not really for me.

My favorite tracks are PUNK ROCKY, DON'T BE DUMB / TRIP BABY, and THE END.
My least favorite track is STOP SNITCHING.

Lil Yachty - Let's Start Here.
84

This is the first album I decided to listen to in 2026, and the irony of the fact that the album is called "Let's Start Here." is not lost on me.

Oh man, what a wild ride. I remember all the buzz this record created when it released, and how shocked everyone was to hear an album like this come from Lil Yachty. Yachty always fell into that trap slop hole for me, and seeing the reception of this one was surprising. I never got around to it until now since I was still exploring rap ... read more
