Giraffes? Giraffes! - More Skin With Milk-Mouth

A fantastic rock album with amazing production. Every song is a vibe and a display of immense skill.

JID - The Forever Story
89

An amazing album with superb production spanning multiple genres, as well as beautiful storytelling, great musicality and masterful flows from JID. When he leans into the storytelling aspects, the songs are introspective and soulful, but when he makes hard-hitting tracks they work so well.

Jack Harlow - Monica
65

A pretty average neo-soul/RnB album, with great production but subpar singing and lyricism from Jack. I like the comforting vibe of the project, but man could Jack please put some more emotion into his singing.

Mac Miller - Swimming
90

Wow. That’s all i can say. Well it’s not, because there is more to this review, but this album truly left me speechless when i first listened to it. The sheer amount of emotion i felt throughout this project alone makes it worthy of this score, and that doesn’t even begin to touch on the beautiful production and Mac’s fantastic singing and rapping. This album truly had something for everyone, and it has become one of my favourites. Rest In Peace Mac Miller.

Gigi Perez - At The Beach, In Every Life
79

I really like Gigi’s unique voice and singing on this album, and the theme of peace among turmoil is really well executed. Some might say the production is basic, but i think it shines in its simplicity and incorporation of guitar.

Kanye West - Yeezus
86

A quite experimental album from Kanye, which opened the eyes of the world to a more abstract genre of hiphop. The production on this project is great, and Kanye’s lyricism is good as always, with each song sounding similar yet unique.

De La Soul - 3 Feet High and Rising
89

One of my core memories is lying on my bed with my girlfriend with Eye Know playing in my headphones, and just letting the music envelop me in serenity and bliss. This album is incredible, especially for a debut, with a masterful use of samples and great production, and the group’s vocals complement each other so well. My only gripes with this album are its length (it has a fair amount of bloat) and the skits (which contribute to the bloat, but also help build the environment of the album ... read more

Tyler, The Creator - Wolf
81

An extremely surprising album from Tyler, considering he made Goblin just two years previously, with a large leap in emotional maturity. I really like the production on this project, the features are all really good and a majority of the songs are great.

Travis Scott - Rodeo
87

Extremely strong production on this album, with great vocals and songwriting from Travis and some good features. Where this album shines is its artfully curated beats and atmosphere, although it is very good in all aspects.

Harry Styles - Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.
69

An alright album, with relatively good production and songwriting, although it sounds a little too basic for me. This project lacks some of the variety that I enjoyed about Harry's House, and overall this album is just slightly bland, although it has grown on my slightly through my listens.

detahjae - Lone, Borealis
81

This album is very strong for detahjae’s first, and i personally really enjoy it. I see why people are saying it sounds too much like Tyler, and i feel like it sounds enough like him that you can tell detahjae was inspired, but the album has enough uniqueness to stand on its own. The production and lyricism are both pretty good, and the album’s theme is solid and well executed. Detahjae’s storytelling is good, and his personality really comes through on this album, with that ... read more

JPEGMAFIA - I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU
86

When my friend first introduced me to Peggy in early 2025, I didn’t really care for his music, as I thought it was too harsh and abrasive. I now see how wrong I was. This album is truly great, with insane variation in its crazy production and Peggy’s rapping/singing, with every track bringing something new to the table.

Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly
96

When i first began listening to Kendrick, i was blown away by GKMC, but when it came to To Pimp a Butterfly, i was not as impressed. The story, rapping and production did not immediately click with me, leading to me not revisiting as often. However, each time i’ve come back to this project, it has grown on me more and more, and with my most recent listen i can confirm that it is phenomenal. Kendrick’s storytelling, lyricism and rapping is incredible, with the multi-layered story ... read more

Ka - Honor Killed the Samurai
82

A great album and concept, with pretty good production and great storytelling, but not much replay value. Better as one piece than individual songs

Westside Gunn & Mr. Green - FLYGOD Is Good... All The Time
80

An quite consistent project, with good production and rapping, but nothing more. I do quite like this style however.

Kanye West - Graduation
88

This album makes me feel happy. Some all time Kanye bangers on this project, and the uplifting, vibrant tone of the album is really shown through every track. The production is truly special, Kanye’s rapping and singing is pretty great, and despite some slightly weak songs, this album is amazing

84

A unique album from Kanye, but it works. I really like the production on this project, and Kanye’s rapping is quite good, and while not every song here is outstanding, the highs are extremely high, which for me somewhat outweigh the weaker tracks

Frank Ocean - channel ORANGE
88

Beautiful production and vocals from Frank, and some of his overall best work (particularly Pyramids like damn that song is amazing). I really like the amount of variety yet cohesion on here, and every song feels appreciated.

Cordae - The Lost Boy
83

Great soul/RnB adjacent production, and very solid rapping from Cordae. The features and storytelling are all excellent, and overall just a good album.

On Little Simz - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert
"okay I might need to update those ratings. I think I rated a lot of the songs too harshly on my initial rating, and after listening a few more times I can confirm that Woman is definitely 9+, my fault."
