GYAT, GYAGYAGYAGYAT - Kanye on 1st track, probably

OVERALL: 10/10
FAV: Feel the Love, Fire, FREEEE (Ghost Town pt. 2)
LEAST: Kids See Ghosts
COVER ART: 9/10

Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine & The Alchemist - Hall & Nash 2: The Original Version
60

The last but.. yes, the last one. FOR THIS YEAR

Griselda been hella productive this year. Well, mostly Conway. His albums this year were the pinnacle of ''mediocre''. The Trippie Redd but better. Quantity over quality etcetcetc. This is.. what, 5th Conways release for this year? Second one for Gunn. Is it good tho? Is the last release from Griselda for this year good?

This really is a mixed bag for me. This is a perfect balance of ''a mimir'' beats and somewhere decent beats. Feels like ... read more

Kanye West - Yeezus
100

To this fucking day, i wonder, how the fuck a person who been constantly giving Death Grips high scores, gave Yeezus a 5/10 for having "dark, noisy passageways" (yes, fantano, you.)

Anyways, this album grew on me a lot. Year ago, when i first listened to it, it felt like Brad said: "Bullshit music". But now, its either the effect of me playing ULTRAKILL while listening to this, or i actually start to love "bullshit music".
So talking about "dark ... read more

Ryan Gosling - Ken: The EP
30

Yes king slayyy!! Go get em girls ur so cool i love you Ken!! (im going insane)

Conway The Machine & Wun Two - Palermo
50

Last 3 weeks absolutely sucked for music. The only big release was Nicki (which turned out awful) and kanye (mf didnt drop again). But this specific album caught my eye, since its Conway, the guy who made ''God Dont Make Mistakes".
So how is it?
Its mediocre. Some ''lo-fi girl studying'' type beats over same boring slow rapping. Im not even kidding, thats some quality snore indazing shit. I was listening to this already late enough, after i finished i wanted to sleep even more. The ... read more

bl4ck m4rket c4rt - Today I Laid Down
90

Spotifys artist ''about me'' is fucking cruel for this one

This EP is beatiful. Can you even belive a 17yo made this piece of art? This is so angelic and well-structured. Even tho its a shoegaze, he made a perfect ratio of common shoegazes ''wait 4 minutes till the melody starts'' and actual melodies that are fucking awesome. The only improvement this EP needs is the sound of his vocals. Even for shoegaze they are way too silent. But, it seems like we will never get a reissue. R.I.P bl3ck ... read more

Peter Gabriel - i/o
80

Cover art looks sick

Wow, 10 years later he decided to drop a new album. Dont you think this year is kinda weird? Every big artist dropped an album after long hiatus. Andre, Danny, Sampha, Travis. Now him. And thats only the ones i managed to remember. Anyway Peter dropped a new album! It comes with 2 version of same songs (for some reason), but i can assure you that they have minimum differences, so its just 2 same albums.

This album is first from him for me. I never even heard before about ... read more

Hi-C - L3Ft 4 D3aD
40

It took me a few relistens and a dive into his previous work
Gotta say, its not my style. At all.
But now i gotta say that its not that awful than it was on the first listen. I still hate the sound of it, but i had a great laugh. Some good songs here also. Dude is having fun with music he makes and thats respectable. I like it but i dont.

OVERALL: (4) 0
FAV TRACK: EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM
LEAST: EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM

DJ Shadow - Action Adventure
30

Its scary how sounds i make with my mouth sound better than the album itself

¥$ - VULTURES
10

OFFICIAL NOMINEE AND POSSIBLE WINNER FOR THE WORST BAR/LINE ON A RAP SONG OF 2023!
No seriously, Kanye, when 99% of hip-hop industry attention is turned on you, it might just be a bad idea to pull out ''jokes'' like that

Busta Rhymes - BLOCKBUSTA
20

Sometimes... best choice is just to retire

Busta Rhymes, the dude who.. when was the last time he was good tho? His peak was in mid 90s, when he relased his best albums, after that everything is mediocre. Honestly dunno why he keeps on going. But ok, lets talk about the actual album

Production.. well its just bad. Its basic in all ways possible. Bland, corny, lazy beats. How did this even happen? Dude has Pharrel AND Timbaland. Okay credit where its due, Pharell produced tracks actually sound ... read more

André 3000 - New Blue Sun
80

You dont get it, he just now raps in wind

I officially declare this day best day for music in this year. Danny, Andre, Wayne, Drake (finally cooked). What a peculiar event.
Anyways - Andre. Famously known and known famously for his rap career in hip-hop duo ''OutKast'' with BigBoi. Permanent resident of every top-10, top-5 and half of top-3 ''rappers of all time''. His flow and pen work is spectacular, his flows are catchy, his influence can not be overrated. This why, im sure, every hip-hop ... read more

Danny Brown - Quaranta
100

Wow, this is one hell of a friday, isnt it?
(rewritten the review a little. No changes to the ratings)

Today is a very busy day for all music critics, and im not an exception. When was the last time Andre 3K and Danny dropped an album same day? Oh, right, never. Danny brown is one of the most talanted producers of our time. Frankly, i might even call him our generations Madlib for his sample flips and astonishing beats. His previous solo albums already proved his weight and influence on hiphop ... read more

目黒将司 [Shoji Meguro] - Persona 5: Original Soundtrack
100

Great OST for an awesome game

Yes, i do have a positive bias towards this soundtrack. But oh my god, even without the "well the game is awesome so imma give the soundtrack a 10", this one is magnficent even separated from the game

I legit sat trough all of the songs and cant say any other than "Masterpiece". The way its mixed, composed and mastered is just.. just wow. Ear candy.
They perfectly translate the feeling they meant to translate to you. "Last Surprise" ... read more

Chase & Status - 2 RUFF, Vol.1
90

This goes hard

Honestly yall missing out with all the hip-hop albums released today. Check this one out. This album sounds awesome. The beats make your head bop unintentionally and aint this a good sign for D&B album? Energy-filled, fun and pleasent to listen to album

The Kid LAROI - THE FIRST TIME
50

I swear to god why this dude even looks like Bieber

Finally releasing a debut album after his radio hit single (3 BILLION LISTENS HOLY SHIT) featuring Justin Bieber dropped. The name even speaks for itself.
As album goes you realise its pretty personal and self-reflecting for Laroi. Talking in skits and singing about his first love, mistakes he made and how he feels bad about what he done. And, actually, its a pretty decent-slight good piece of music targetting teenage audience. Bascially ''im ... read more

Jung Kook - GOLDEN
20

No long review on this one. Im not a 16yo girl whose instagram consist of BTS members thirst traps. Its not good.
As much as BTS members try in solo carriers, one thing is obvious - they dont sound different from their BTS tracks.
4th track is fire ngl
(who the fuck feats with major lazer in 2023)

OVERALL: 2/10
FAVOURITE: Standing Next to You
LEAST: Seven (for obvious reasons)

Kevin Abstract - Blanket
60

Frankenstein of an album

Ah, one of my favourite bands ever - BROCKHAMPTON. i love their music so mu- wait what do you mean they broke up.
Okay that was an awful skit but yes, this album is released by one of the founder members of BROCKHAMPTON - Kevin Abstract. And hey, you can really feel BROCKHAMPTON style on some of the songs. But you cant always hang on to the thing that made you popular. Its gone. And Kevin understands it very well. So after all of the BROCKHAMPTON type beat songs he ... read more

Black Pumas - Chronicles of a Diamond
80

Soul music for my soul

Somehow getting strong Bruno Mars vibes on this, i wonder why.. Anyway - i liked everything about this album. Awesome production with clever mixing. Angelic voice that is just a candy for your ears. How it all mixes together and accomplishes one another. What a great album to chill and groove to.
Tho some songs really dont live up to expectations and/or just sound awkward (Ice Cream, Hello)

FAVOURITE: More Than a Love Song, Chronicles of a Diamond
LEAST: Ice Cream (Pay ... read more

Poppy - Zig
50

Death Grips? More like Alive Grab

Not a fan of Poppy, by all means, but ill try my best not to have negative bias towards this album.
Starting off really great. Church Outfit is a great Industrial track with a little bland but overall great production and vocals. Even lyrics are not trash. But further in the record you start to understand - its nothing special. It lacks basic mixing where beats should change on bridges, pre-choruses and choruses. Yet they dont. On most of the songs beats are ... read more
