Unironically a really fun listen lil

Edit: 55 -> 20

Still fun but after literally 1 relisten this album looses a lot of charm

How many years’ wait for this project? Im bored out of my mind.

Really good in some regards. I really hate the tone on the vocals tho and ofc thats gonna be something that holds me back from really loving a record like this
Edit: ive realized that my disdain from this album largely comes from the fact that i really love the tone of the main singers voice but HATE how he sings all of these tracks. He has such a commanding/interssting/nice sounding voice but it NEVER clicks with the music

Short and very sweet. Great beat, great verses

If a 0 ever existed, this is it. It's unbelievable to me that this album isn't ragebait. The first time I saw this cover, I couldn't tell if I wanted to laugh or throw up. Trippie looks like he's half naked, and MGK is in his bootleg fit check pose. Not to mention the horrendous album title that is sprawled across both of them. Corny title aside, how does Genre: Sadboy actually hold up musically?

Short answer: it doesn't.

Simply one of the best albums ever released. Every track is a must listen. The lyrics are relevant, and the production is phenomenal.

Boy oh boy. This album wasn't super offensive, and of course the mix isn’t “bad”. That being said, I caught deja vu multiple times on this album, despite it being my first listen. As impressive as that is, it doesn't bode well for making the album provocative. The lyrical content isn’t very creative or memorable. At the end of the day, I’m just disappointed. There are signs of enjoyable elements present, but ultimately they aren’t explored in any ... read more

Kind of boring and typical. The production is fine. There isn't anything egregiously bad about this project. It's just kind of ... there. I like J.cole decently enough, but I can't deny that I've been consistently disappointed by the garbage he's put out since FHD

Edit: This shit sucks and it's egregious. I understand that the labels require artists to have a certain output, but this should've just stayed in the vault.

Listened to this while drunk. can confirm my brain dripped out of my ears and into the world around

beautiful. forward thinking. layered. genuinely amazing music.

must hear album is a stretch. if it's your thing it's your thing but it DEFINITELY isn't mine

the name is fitting cause this album is audible crack

fun album but is lacking something I can't put my finger on. I like the vocal delivery and the instrumentals kept my interest for the whole album run. That being said these lyrics are kinda... meh. Some tracks hit harder than others. It doesn't overstay it's welcome and is a pleasant listen. I might change my opinion on a second listen.

Very solid.

Edit --> After many years of living and many years of listening, this album is much better than "very solid"

85 --> 92

listening to this album is like having a trusted friend tell you that everything's gonna be alright.
