Crack cocaine.
This is an essential album in itself.
It’s okay! But definitely was expecting more.
But Bug Like An Angel was different enough from from TLIIASAW though! We’ll see what happens
"yall are gonna switch like with gnarly" or whatever
NO! this is fucking awful
Certainly underwhelming but not as bad as the masses say #idk #swiftie!
Used to be one of her deniers because of her TikTok background, but here I am.
One of the most solid pop album debuts in a while.
Fame is a Gun is one of the best songs of 2025 <3
I am too lazy to write a full review and give an extensive rating on every individual songs these days.
That does not negate that this shit slaps
Next entry to my 2025 GRAMMY AOTY nominee review, this.
Before I even begin, let me just state that this is why I do not go out of my way to listen to an album that's bad because... it exhausts me, good lord.
This was genuinely exhausting. Like where do I even begin?
The third volume of the "Djesse" series is not this bad... but this was just insufferable. Whatever... let me explain why.
This album starts off with at least, I guess an *okay* look to what we are going to have ... read more
The next entry to my 2025 GRAMMY AOTY reviewing journey.
First of all, I've heard of Andre making an album that's outside of his usual sound, I mean he is a part of Outkast.
It's a pretty big deal when someone of his caliber goes out to experiment on their output.
Still though, I was not expecting to press play to a full on ambient album? Genuinely a pleasant surprise but somehow I am confused as to how it landed a nomination for Album of The Year?
I do not have much to say ... read more
With that explosive and back-to-back summer hits that are "Espresso" & "Please Please Please" it's no surprise that this album is awaited by many - but does it deliver? Maybe.
The reason why I said, "maybe" is because I am kind of on the fence about it - it is a mixed bag.
As a whole body of work, I feel like it should have been full-on fun synth-pop, you know?
These country pop tracks were huge misses, let me get into it immediately.
"Sharpest ... read more
(rated in its entire 31-track run)
A direct follow-up to the 16-track "TORTURED POETS", "THE ANTHOLOGY" takes on the same narrative while approaching it in a less grander scale.
For some reasons, Taylor did actually manage the heavy-handed songwriting on this one.
Though melodically it would be reductive and feels like a slog at some points - it presents a better edge of the project.
However, when it's a 31-track album, usually it would mean that it is more likely to ... read more
Putting this review here is actually scary but here I go.
This album is not exactly the most exciting Taylor release and I say that, keep in mind that I like Taylor's music an abnormal amount for a long time now. Although it isn't as much of a mixed bag like "Lover" - this is still a mixed bag. It does have its good moments, credit is given where its due.
For this review, I'll focus on its drawbacks first.
So, what happens when Taylor's strongest point becomes ... read more
What happens when a body of work is so great that it makes me feel things?
It gets a perfect score.
This is my third perfect scorer. First from the 2020s.
You see, the problem with the subjectivity in music is that this will bring the argument that no piece of music is perfect, and that is true!
But the thing is that, when it's so profound and it is so enjoyable to sit through - it will be getting that perfect score.
This album is so perfectly packaged across its 15-track run, it ... read more
Throughout its 66-minute run, Halsey presented her best work yet - all from her worst parts of her life.
This is her most cathartic body of work yet, though it feels dragged at moments and not packed as tightly as I wanted to, it is a heavy hitter. It hits so hard is because of not only its length, it is also because of the subject that this album presents in its entire 18-track run. It nails the concepts well, though sometimes loose - it can be forgiven because she still respects the source ... read more
I thought I have already left my rating here for this?
Anyway, an easy perfect score.
This is how you elevate a song with a remix (or version like it was called).
Lorde's verse is just immaculate.
