The Dismemberment Plan - Change
95
From certain perspectives, this album is their best.

A minimalist cover is what this new sound is presented under: darker, colder, moodier. The opening swirl of "Sentimental Man" sets the tone of this album immediately. This is the night to E&I's day.

It's evident throughout the tracks sequenced to create this masterpiece. The ironic acknowledgement of agency on "Superpowers" is the perfect foil to the powerlessness hammered home on "Come Home." Repeated ... read more

Unwound - Leaves Turn Inside You
100
I sometimes worry that my ratings are too positive. The 90-99 portion of my ratings is the most populated, which seems a little odd. With this comes the thought I have sometimes that I have too many 100s. If any album deserves the triple digits, this is it. Leaves Turn Inside You is the result of Unwound's longest break between albums, and would be the final album of their discography. Produced by the band themselves in their own studio, full creative control was established on their magnum ... read more

drake is easily the worst part of this song but that doesn't
stop it from being one of the only redeemable tracks on clb

Famous Dex - Japan

like 3 years ago i listened to this song on repeat for an hour
Kanye West - Dear Donda
NR
EDIT 6/8/2021: (80 -> NR) Removing my rating since this got eliminated on all platforms
Flooring this to 80 because it's essentially a label cash-grab, but I'd be lying if I said these songs weren't great.
Isaiah Rashad - Lay Wit Ya
70
I haven't heard much of his previous work, but based on everyone else's reactions this is mediocre/bad coming from him. While it wasn't extremely captivating, I liked the instrumental and it sounded nice for the first half. The second half, however, was basically the same exact thing combined with an OK verse from Duke Deuce. Overall, this song is somehow worse than the Trippie Redd one.
J. Cole - i n t e r l u d e
90
Good verse with interesting but nice-sounding production. Pretty strange how this was the choice for lead single. It's only about 2 minutes and a quarter of it is just buildup to the (single) verse. For an interlude, however, it's a great track. Leaves me hopeful that this album will be one of his best, if not his best. I don't come back to his prior work often but maybe this album will change that.
Trippie Redd & Playboi Carti - Miss The Rage
80
Probably my favorite Trippie Redd song ever. Honestly, the beat on the leaked version was slightly better than the one here, but the verses more than make up for it. Trippie's on some of his top material here, and Carti's verse is nowhere near the ear infection his feature on Pain 1993 was. Overall, I enjoyed this song but the bass was mixed too highly and what the FUCK was that producer tag at the start?
Lil Dicky - Earth
0
EDIT 5/17/21: everything else -5

Young Stoner Life, Young Thug & Gunna - Slime Language 2
NR
This compilation isn't really impressive at like, any point, or in any section really. It's pretty much exactly what anyone expected - exactly as middle-of-the-road and homogeneous as everything else recently released in this genre. There's a few songs I enjoyed, but most of it was just too forgettable and blended together. I've never seen a label compilation that was executed very well, so my hopes weren't high for this thing anyway. This thing is pretty much tossing a bunch of big names and ... read more
Black Eyed Peas - Let’s Get Retarded
NR
it is concerning how no one has yet brought up the fact that peas do not have eyes and, consequently, cannot have black eyes. therefore, the artist name is nothing but a contradiction, a tear of senseless in the manifold of reality. we must bring justice to this universe and prevent its inevitable collapse
Addison Rae - Obsessed
10
Annoying, shallow, derivative, unoriginal, uneventful, it really just had nothing put into it. This song is what some AI in 2040 would churn out given the prompt 'pop song for the teens'
BROCKHAMPTON - BUZZCUT
100
Improves on everything I didn't like on GINGER, really anticipating the album now
Kid Cudi - Speedin' Bullet 2 Heaven
NR
A man at his lowest puts his mental state into 26 tracks.
Nine Inch Nails - Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D
65
A lot of these remixes are enjoyable and some even surpass the original versions on Year Zero but that Me, I'm Not remix has literally zero reason to be 14 minutes long
