Danny Brown - Stardust
80

Danny reflects on his ups and downs through an electro pop soundscape that’s filled to the brim with personality.

Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Piñata
90

Pair some incredible rapping alongside some of the best hip-hop production and you get one of the best vibes in a rap album.

Lingua Ignota - SINNER GET READY
70

Individually the songs are great. Altogether I feel like the album overstays it’s welcome.

David Bowie - ★ [Blackstar]
90

Face to face with death, David Bowie creates his swan song. Confronting his own mortality, he creates a personal yet artistically sound album that ends up being both profound and thoughtful, leaving behind a remarkable legacy and undeniable impact on music.

Labi Siffre - Crying, Laughing, Loving, Lying
60

Second half was pretty good while the first wasn’t interesting.

Gorillaz - Plastic Beach
80

Starts off incredibly strong but becomes inconsistent quality wise.

Shawn Mendes - Wonder
40

Wonder is a good song. Everything else is so boring.

Eminem - Kamikaze
40

When Em releases one of the most unlistenable songs then goes into one of his best songs he’s ever released. The whiplash is crazy.

The Microphones - The Glow Pt. 2
70

Starts off so strong but then tapers off. The last song was actually so insulting. The previous one I wasn’t a fan of but this one pissed me off. I liked the song portion of it but then it’s 8 straight minutes of ambiance and the album ends. I can accept if it’s only a minute or two but they wanted it to be majority of this song. What a sour way to end tbh.

cYsmix - Voodooism the Sequel
80

The last track is a bit repetitive but overall solid

Kanye West - 808s & Heartbreak
90

This is going to be a hot take but this is my favorite Kanye album. His lyrics are usually my least favorite parts in his music but for 808, production takes the center stage and it’s phenomenal. The songs are catchy and simply loved listening to it.

Imogen Heap - Speak for Yourself
70

I couldn’t believe the “Do What You Say” meme song is in here.

William Basinski - Melancholia
40

I like the music at first but the more it kept going, the more repetitive it felt. The notes remain the same for each song. There’s no sense of progression. At least some slight variation would’ve helped. Some songs did not have to be so long and add nothing.

Lil Yachty - Teenage Emotions
40

Better and Forever Young are good songs. Everything else is either mid or terrible.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞
80

Should’ve at least given a heads up for the 3:30 minutes of silence. I get the intention but it doesn’t work for me. Great album overall though.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven!
100

One of the most ethereal pieces of media I’ve ever experienced.
