With features from artists like Teezo Touchdown, Daniel Caesar, Sexyy Red, GloRilla, Doechii, Lil Wayne, and Schoolboy Q, the album explores several themes: The title “CHROMAKOPIA” suggests a transition from monochrome to color, symbolizing the vibrancy and life that women and femininity bring to a world ... read more

absolutely awful, every song is drawn out way longer than what they should have been, i respect that the idea was to have every song be a quarter of the album but fuck me it's so unnecessary and drags out so much.

im a sucker for tracks that blend into each other to create one whole piece, and the first four tracks on here do it beautifully.

audiobook. the instrumentals are the only reason this gets points, would work well in a western/cowboy film but the story is fucking god awful.

a pretty generic garage record, not terrible for a first album in all fairness. weird bland mix of AM and the strokes. some enjoyable tracks in the first half but second half is a let down.

dreamy, vibey, jazzy, beautiful. simply lovely record from front to back, clairo is bliss. very close second AOTY for me, just edged by fontaines.

blues rock done incredibly good. simple yet very effective bass riff pairs beautifully with the keys in the background, the guitar is sublime the drums are stunning and the backing vocals are divine. my first ever king glizzy song i’ve listened to and what a way to start. also the drummer’s singing this?? thats fucking awesome his high note game is crazy good for someone that isnt even the lead singer in the band

ITS SOOOOOO FLYDAY FLYDAY CHINATOWN
this is such a feel good city pop banger. yes i have no clue what she's spewing other than the obvious, but everything about this just fucks in all of the right places. love love love it.

actually a really good english cover of 4:00 A.M. i found while searching for the original on here. its just a banger no matter if its taeko's original or this sweet sweet translated cover. job very well done. edit: will be recommending this cover on the very rare occasion i get asked about city pop, and the og of course.

IVE ONLY LISTENED TO MAYONAKA NO DOOR / STAY WITH ME THIS IS FOR THAT SONG AND ONLY THAT SONG
tune tune tune tune tune its so fucking good i wish i knew what she was singing about. i fucking love the japanese city pop genre and this is unreal.

yeah reload was cool but this is unmatched sorry shoji, nice try but you shoudve kept yumi kawamura. if we ever get a P3R type re-do of persona 4 you better keep shihoko hirata on there or i'll fucking riot. lotus juice is an incredible rapper i fucking love love love it all.
