THANK U FOR 100 FOLLOWERS <3
Recently decided to dive into the Cities Aviv discography, this and BLACK PLEASURE (review coming soon...) is definitely quite the start!
I had never heard of Cities Aviv until last year, and even then, I did not really listen to a track of his until about a month ago, and I can confidently say that I'm officially obsessed.
I really do love this cloud/dance rap subgenre from the early 2010's and Cities Aviv really has put his own twist on this style, ... read more
Out of this era of Aviv's ambient work, this has definitely been the best one imo. I can definitely see this one growing on me more & more as it sits with me longer.

Least Fav Song(s): n/a

I think this is on par with ... read more
Man, how was Aviv so consistent from 2020 - 2022?
This concludes a legendary run of albums that Cities Aviv started with GUM, and not to say that he has not put out any good music after this (Electric Chair review also coming soon...), but he certainly hasn't put out any project on the same level as these 5 records since this release.
"Working Title For The Album Secret Waters" in some ways is not too dissimilar from "Man Plays The Horn" from earlier that year, ... read more
