A$AP Rocky - Ruby Rosary
82

Rocky continues his great singles run, and J.Cole gets in his technical rap bag

The Dare - What's Wrong With New York?
70

sorry to The People who rated the second half of the album lower than the first, The Dare made it for me i guess!!!

I listened to the album because of the Dylan Brady production credit, and got what I came for even on the songs Dylan had nothing to do with; campy, fun dance music. The Dare has a lot of personality and writes very tongue-in-cheek and current songs. What's Wrong With New York? isn't his artistic zenith by any means, but it's a solid start.

79

I'm not well versed in noise rock, so that's the perspective I'm approaching this with.

I really liked this album. It starts out by hitting you with something heavy and doing so very well, then introduces the banjo folk sound. The result is a wide range of sound and vaguely uneasy emotional palette crammed into just over 30 minutes. It's not an "easy listen" in a background music type of way, but it's an "easy listen" in that I want to hear the ... read more

Big Sean - Better Me Than You
68

The bloated tracklist on this really, really, drags it down. A bit better track selection and Big Sean could have made a much, much better album. There's a good range of light bangers like Certified, more introspective songs like Black Void, and songs that sound good while telling us a lot about Big Sean like Typecast, my personal favorite. And then every third song is mid, or has weird bars, or I couldn't hum the melody of it if my life depended on it. I'm walking away with an ... read more

Bladee & Ecco2k - Crest
92

they drained me?!?!?!

Drake - No Face
60

how pissed off is 40...... the beat is good on its own but drake's voice is not mixed well with it.

Yeah this is more desperation music from Drake. The hook is catchy, him whisper-yelling "no face, no face, no face" does hit and he's rapping like he gives a shit. I can see why the Carti "feature" was dropped, he wasn't adding anything to the song. The bars about "they won't say shit to my face" do make total sense with where his career's ... read more

BNYX® - GO AGAIN
76

Not Yeat's most personality-filled verse but vibey, and the production is obviously amazing.

beabadoobee - This Is How Tomorrow Moves
62

She's got a great voice and great taste in production. I love Take A Bite genuinely, other songs like One Time and A Cruel Affair were pretty good too. So what's the problem? Her songwriting's very, very hit-or-miss. She's not always good at the storytelling part of making music, and she starts failing enough for her music to be grating sitting though a whole album. With the exceptions of Tie My Shoes, Girl Song, and TMWLTS, the songs I didn't enjoy would be decent ... read more

AJJ - Knife Man
83

I listened to this album months ago, and didn't know what to rate it. I kept listening to the album, and didn't know what to rate it. The album made it onto my main playlist, my "music I'll put on around my friends" playlist, I kept hearing it, and I didn't know what to rate it. I came up with a number that sounds about right, but that's a lot less important than the impression the album leaves you with. It's not perfect (and definitely picks up in the ... read more

umru - comfort noise
86

This ep proves why umru is such a hyperpop superproducer. Each track stands out with energy and great production, and he enlists the help of some of the genre's best such as Tony Velour and Ravenna Golden. A must listen, honestly.

645AR - Sum Bout U
68

I can't say I fully get it yet. But I want to keep listening to see if I do, which is valuable on its own.

RXKNephew - Crack Therapy 3
78

one of the albums of all time. rxknephew is entertaining as he talks his shit for 30 minutes.

Evann McIntosh - WIYULD
70

Found this in....my own Spotify Liked songs on shuffle? No memory of this song but it's an entire vibe

Mori Calliope - PHANTOMIME
78

I listened to Go-Getters when it first came out and didn't rate it because I hadn't fully made my mind up about Mori, being familiar only with her ZUTOMAYO feature (pretty decent) and her worst moments (like calling lean a ''new-age word'' on twitter and some genuinely terrible bars).

Maybe the whole album got me really used to Mori, but it's more likely that something just clicked. The first song was somehow nostalgic stadium rock, and as the alum keeps ... read more

Lady Gaga - Die With A Smile
85

I wanted to do dance moves I definitely can't do.

Tinashe - Quantum Baby
63

Glossy and fun, especially towards the beginning, but one-note in its content which wears you down somewhat. Would have been way better if she cut two or three songs or just released a bunch of singles

Ravyn Lenae - Bird's Eye
92

Listening to this album feels like coming home. Calming as it's emotional, it holds your full attention. Ravyn Lenae sings like singing is her favorite thing in the world, and the warm production brings everything together.

Asake - Lungu Boy
73

A very solid vibe throughout, but I got the feeling that his effort wasn't that consistent. Some songs in the first half of the album blur together, songs like Skating and Mood flow well with the others but don't hold up on their own.

On filipiakye's review of beabadoobee - This Is How Tomorrow Moves
"this whole thing is kinda proving how immature people on both sides (and bea herself) have been, to me. The original meme was funny but nothing groundbreaking, her jumping to conflate being mildly annoyed by spam with the genuine harassment she's received is a concerningly immature move, but because she brought incels into it their noxious ass community had to make themselves known. Now there's allegations of sexism and reverse sexism and reverse reverse sexism and no one has a leg to stand on. Lowkey the guy that made the og meme is the most mature in the whole situation, he clarified that he was a fan of her music and told his audience not to spread hate to beabadoobe or her fans."
On beabadoobee - This Is How Tomorrow Moves
"wait hi ima be real and say the yabadabadoo/artists who can't sing/crashout memes are funny. It's a1) obvious that as a woman in the public eye she's received a lot of bullshit, but a2) conflating genuine harassment and mildly annoying spam is a very immature move for a grown 24 year old woman. It's like that meme of someone being really rude and then using every trauma they've ever went through as an excuse to why. She doesn't have to think opera Youngboy is funny, she should have shown the basic decency not to over-react so strongly to something that straight up wasn't that deep. If someone puts art out there they should be prepared for reactions that aren't personally titillating to them."
