What a lovely little project from The Scythe
When I first listened to the singles for this record, I wasn't really vibing with them because I was hoping for something different from Denzel. I expected him to go back to his introspective bag after KOTMS 2. Realizing it's supposed to be a group effort, I let my expectations go and really enjoyed this tape for what it is. It's well produced and full of some great rapping.
What I'm most impressed by is the structure of each ... read more
Under all the nails-on-a-chalkboard mixing and lackadaisical rapping, there's a couple solid tracks on "Well Isn't This Awkward..."
This album is a mess. There are some tracks I absolutely hate. Hate to the point that I don't even see the appeal. Even so, this tape is well made and I don't regret listening to it. Some of the samples were fun and a lot of the production was pretty catchy. The mixing combined with Hamilton's terrible vocal delivery just ... read more
I've never been the biggest MCR fan, but I've been wanting to have a proper listen to their discography since some of my friends swear their music is really good. Yeah, off to a bad start I would say.

A surprisingly solid project from Gucci. I didn't know his game to be honest. I always assumed his whole appeal was that people ironically enjoyed him. I mean, look at his goddamn covers! How can you take that seriously? Me because I fuck with it actually.
"Dope Boys," "Flexin," "My Shadow," and "Real as They Get" are BANGERS that will be in my rotation for a while. That being said, the sound is obviously dated and has aged quite a bit, so a lot of ... read more
Travis Scott has been a complete sellout for a while now so I wasn't expecting much, yet I'm STILL disappointed.
I honestly forgot this project was dropping, that's how low my expectations were. Dude hasn't innovated with his sound in 8 years so I knew he wasn't gonna do anything new. I was just expecting a decent, inoffensive album with some good features to carry his terrible lyricism. He failed to even deliver that.
The production is questionable at best. ... read more
