No explanation (JK, review coming sometime in the future, like all my other Ye albums that I need to write a review on.)
Since this wasn’t on the Bad album on AOTY, I’ll just give an exclusive review here.
Leave Me Alone is exploring the personal fight with fame that Michael Jackson is facing, with the beginning of the music video showing newspapers upon newspapers detailing every one of Michael’s moves. I personally loved the song, as its deep emotional theme and intimate look into Michael’s struggles is refreshing and deeply unsettling. The music video further launched these themes of ... read more
I have heard the first disc of this album. It’s nice. (Edit: Review Coming Soon, Likely Within The Next 3 or 4 days.)
What can I say? A really interesting album.
For some reason coming into this album, I thought that the soundscape would correlate similar to other Odd Future members like Tyler, The Creator and Frank Ocean, but boy was I proven wrong! The album had like an unpolished feel with scratchy, hard to hear production and loud, boisterous vocals. I like that aspect of this album because it provided the album with a lot of personality and stand outs that I don’t see from albums often, mostly ... read more

This might be better than Abbey Road… I don’t know.
Anyways, this is a monumental album in the Beatles’ discography. It marks as one of their first truly experimental and mature albums. Songs like ‘Norwegian Wood’ and especially ‘Girl’ characterize this sudden maturity shift really well. I just feel that compared to the bits of songs I’ve heard on albums that come before this, the writing shot up tenfold. Not only does the writing improve from ... read more
This album serves at Daniel Caesar’s debut album, and I think he came in with a bang. The vocals are easily the best part of this album, so soothing and heaven-like on each and every track throughout the album. The features from the likes of Kali Uchis & Charlotte Day Wilson further solidify the godly vocals on the album, and they deliver some heartfelt features as well. I really only have one main negative about this album and that’s its over-repetition. The album seems to not ... read more
It’s alright. Solid lyricism but okay execution and performance. That music video for the song was great, however.
A great selection of tracks that perfectly represent what Juice Wrld is about. Amazing posthumous release.
To be honest, my opinion will probably change because it’s been literal ages since I’ve last listened to this album.
I came into this album with high expectations after my first Beatles listen, being Abbey Road, blown me away. I found that the album met most of my high expectations, with highlights like The Fool On The Hill and Penny Lane. However, I felt that there was a lack of lyrical prowess compared to Abbey Road, and that some of the sounds that the album presented fell flat at times. Overall, the album is still a superb experience from a superb band.
THE SAVIOR HAS RETURNED! (Edited): So, I think this album is definitely an increase in quality from the abominations that were Vultures 1 & 2, and Donda 2. There are standout tracks such as Bully and All The Love, and feels like a nostalgia trip with Kanye delving into old styles again, which is nice. However, it feels like the production is unfinished at times, and the execution by Kanye could’ve been WAY better.
At the time of listening to this, I had never had to sit down and listen through a Beatles album. I had heard some of their songs, of course, who wouldn’t? However, I was afraid I wouldn’t enjoy it, since it was very different from what I normally listen to, but that thankfully turned out to be wrong. This is one of the best albums I’ve ever listened to so far. The magnificent production by George Martin, who really put this album together amazingly, topped off with creative ... read more
