my review of no love deep web.
-
okay so SURPRISINGLY I have not listened to this album all the way through SUE ME but I gave it a full listen earlier and I really enjoyed this album. the story behind it is really interesting, with the album cover and the way it was released being a big middle finger to their record label at the time.

i’m a huge fan of the vocal style of Magdalena Bay, which is surprising because usually i have a hard time ... read more
my review of solace by Earl Sweatshirt
-
i seriously dont have the words to describe the pit in my stomach this EP gave me. this was seriously the worst and best song i have heard that shows what it sounds like to be at the absolute lowest point in life. earl sweatshirt has always been a rapper and songwriter who can create this atmosphere that you feel before he even starts to talk. solace is extremely true to itself, grimy, and dark, but unfortunately it is real. this is storytelling that ... read more
