this is a classic, no question. adele’s voice is just insane here. that said, it can feel a bit too slow and heavy in some moments. a few songs lean a lot into that sad, stripped-back vibe, and it makes parts of the album drag a little. adele is at her best when she really shows off her range, and there are moments where you wish there was more of that. it’s more that there isn’t always enough variation to keep the energy moving, especially in the middle of the work. overall ... read more

i’ve been listening to this album a lot and i kinda love it more every time. the first half especially is just sooo good. what i really like about it is how versatile jennie sounds here. you can tell she’s actually interested in experimenting and not just doing the safest possible thing. out of all the solo projects from the members of blackpink this is by far the most ambitious and one thing i really respect about her is how involved she is in everything… you can tell this ... read more

deadline is simply disappointing. the title has never made more sense, considering the project feels dead, barely holding itself together. the group itself seems like it’s hanging by a thread. over the years, their dynamic has felt more and more worn down. i don’t know if it’s yg, the creative direction, or their own chemistry, but something clearly doesn’t click anymore. deadline doesn’t sound like blackpink, it sounds like a forced collaboration between four ... read more

i do like tate, but it often feels like whenever a song of hers starts to show real potential, she somehow sabotages it, whether it’s a poorly written chorus, a beat switch that kills the momentum, something awkward, or just a lack of creative follow-through. “greedy” still stands miles above the rest and feels like the clearest example of what tate can do when everything clicks. overall, this album is pretty generic, but i actually liked more than one song here, which is ... read more

beyoncé literally took the phrase “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade” and turned it into a full fledged concept album, and the result is nothing short of extraordinary. she moves through reggae, rock, r&b, country, soul, and hip-hop, all while keeping the album remarkably cohesive both musically and lyrically. the amount of thought poured into this project is phenomenal. it’s one of the best auditory and visual experiences i’ve ever had. without a ... read more

i really do think that as a newer artist, it might be more important for tate to sculpt a more identifiable sound instead of leaning so heavily on pop formulas that already exist. the album is fun to dance to, but instrumentally it doesn’t push her forward much or uncover any new ground. despite that, her songwriting is undeniably strong, and that’s what saves the album from becoming a completely same-y listening experience. my main issue is the length and repetition. there are a ... read more

out of all the albums i’ve ever listened to, this is a clear 10/10 and, sincerely, i genuinely believe we may never see another piece of music with this level of musical perfection again. there’s a very clear reason why “rumours” is one of the most celebrated and best-selling albums of all time. there really is nothing else that sounds like them. it’s pop-rock at its absolute peak and the songwriting is incredible and completely timeless

this was the first slipknot album I ever listened to. there’s something about this record that feels intensely personal to me because it soundtracked a specific moment in my life, and that connection never really faded. one thing I will always ABSOLUTELY WORSHIP with slipknot is their drums. these drums are like the best i've ever heard. I believe the drummer was the legendary joey nordison who is like in the GOAT debate of drumming, and i can honestly see why. i really think this is ... read more

i am so amazed by billie’s voice. she sings in an unique way and there’s something incredibly comforting and beautiful about it. i remember hearing this album at my aunt’s house, who sadly passed away. every time i listen to it now, i’m taken back to her living room, talking with her while she played this and other albums on the record player. those are some of my most precious childhood and overall memories. thanks aunt for sharing your love for music with me. i like to ... read more

i dont understand why the album cover is just the band members huddled together, like i just listened to a song about a kid killing himself infront of his classmates what the fuck is there to be cheering for
