There are moments and songs on here that I really love and really connect with me, but they are sandwiched between songs that feel like they just meander with melodies that don’t really do much for me.
Some examples of this are two horses, Nancy, and Mary.
But I really love bestie, I especially love the outro and think it’s the best accessible song they’ve made in a long time with its more normal song structure. That song feels like it’s on another level than most of ... read more
I’m a huge fan of this band, I love their last album so much. This feels a little more earnest in a way, it has a similar soundscape but most of it is much softer.
The choruses on this album are very very hooky and I think the songwriting has improved from the last album.
It’s a lot less punchy, but the highs on here feel much more epic and structured than the highs on dogsbody.
Cinderella is one of my favorite songs of theirs now. Diva, doves and acid rain are some serious ... read more
![Kanye West - DONDA 2 [Reissue]](https://cdn2.albumoftheyear.org/100x0/album/1256144-donda-2_024309.jpg)
My favorite artist of all time has released nothing but slop since Donda. V1 is the closest thing he’s released to a good album, both sequel albums have been some of my least favorite hip hop albums from a popular rapper that I’ve ever heard in my life.
Kanye, in my eyes, now has TWO Eminem - revivals
I prefer the highs on V2 to the highs on this without a doubt. But the lows on V2 are much much worse, this thing is just bland the whole way through.
I liked the switch up in style here with the faster rapping but too many of these songs are just forgettable
This really blew my expectations. Every song sounded like peak MIT. Very comforting and trance inducing album with beautiful instrumentals
Great album but the vocals are beyond grating for me.
Maybe I’ll try again and this will change
If I have nothing nice to say I should say nothing at all
And I really have nothing nice to say about this
Very well made but outside of the title track and rein me in I couldn’t get myself interested. It just felt bland, not my type of music I guess
Does anyone outside of the r/drizzy cult actually think this is a good album?
Most of this album is a 3-4 out of 10 with a few songs I really liked bringing it up slightly
Im a Drake fan so my bias may come in here but I really liked the first 2 songs, Nokia, give me hug and the outro.
The rest of this is just beyond meh. What has happened to drake’s creative choices? Who thought this was a good idea after the beef?
Why would he release this? Why did he squeeze solo rap songs all ... read more
Not crazy about this one solely because I can’t get into her voice and the songwriting might be great but it didn’t really do much to grab me.
I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. I’m not crazy about his voice, and some of these songs were kind of boring
But the production was not it short of amazing. There was a handful of songs I genuinely loved and keep coming back to (gnarly being my favorite)
I like this in the same way that I do semetary, I enjoy it over all and love specific songs but it’s hard for me to love and stay interested in a whole album
Daniel Johnston’s chord organ?? Are you kidding me??
This album feels floaty, blue, light, whimsical and fun while still being deeply introspective and philosophical. Mac miller now has the two best posthumous albums I’ve ever heard in his discography.
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I love this album. I have a handful of favorites I just cannot stop listening to (do you have a destination?, pony rides, Deborah, stoned, funny papers and Rick’s piano)
The only song ... read more

On The Lemon Twigs - Look for Your Mind!
"@Shayden I am a huge beach boys fan. So I’m kind of confused as to why I feel this way. It almost feels like they’re covering beach boys songs I haven’t heard before, and something about it just doesn’t maintain my interest
They do have some great songs and singles though, but for a whole album I wish they had more of their own identity.
Merriweather Post Pavilion is a great example of an album that takes heavy Brian Wilson influence in the best way possible but really has its own identity and creates very unique art from it.
This just leaves me feeling uninterested"

"@MatveyRyazanov sounds like you, along with a lot of his fans, have your mind made up. They found book(s) with naked little boys in his room. This is confirmed.
He was a grown man who had a roster of little boys that would sleep in his bed with him. There is no world where this is appropriate,
He had a bell security system above the bed that he would lay with the little boys in that would go off if someone was coming up to the room.
There is testimony from more than just one kid. There was a little boy who was able to identify an allopecia mark on his penis. Also confirmed, but not used at the time of the trial. Those involved with the trial believed that if this penis evidence was used in court the jury may have had a harder time."

"Listen to pink skies, oak island, 28, I remember everything and tourniquet.
I was in the exact same boat as you when I found him a few years ago, I was just telling my fiance that he has 3-5 songs in his discography that are pure magic and some of the best songs anyone has ever made in country.
Pink skies is probably my favorite from him"
On 21 Savage - WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS?
"@FalconGM on second listen today I’m not enjoying this nearly as much as I did last night tbh so this isn’t a hill I’m going to die on 😂😂
But I still like it around the same if not more than American dream. American dream has higher highs but the love songs / sentimental songs put me to sleep. And this album is easier to just put it on and drive bc it stays kinda menacing the whole way through until the last song"
On 21 Savage - WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS?
"@FalconGM the only one I like more is savage mode 2
American dream had good songs but was sleepy
I feel the same about I AM, an the rest has just been mid and boring
This one to me is fun to listen to. I like these beats , feels like a back to basics approach and it works."

People like you are why people want to use that word again, policing people’s speech like this will only make them want to say it more. And who knows? Maybe scrim is mentally slow and has some diagnosis so he can say it as a slur he’s recaptured. lol.
Who are you to say ? Seriously"
