We Cry Together was excellent, especially the clean version. Better than the original, I swear.
Lacks the polish and cohesion of The College Dropout and Late Registration, but provides powerful, sometimes superior, versions of the original tracks.
Maybe one or two tracks too long, but the aesthetic of this whole album is beautiful. Every track has some merit, and they all run so well together. The occasional departures from the constant stream of excellent, dreamy tracks are welcomed too, with Extreme Ways especially becoming a Moby classic.
Must an album need to tell a story? Or does an album just have to be an excellently produced, groundbreaking, and beautiful-sounding mix of some of Moby’s best songs. It moves from hit after hit, to a darkly peaceful run of silently excellent ambient tracks. Humanity peaked with this, and it’s only down from here.
While I probably don't stand by this rating anymore, I'm not willing to change it. Love Moby!
While it loses its way a little halfway through, it constantly pummels you with excellent production and hard-hitting lyricism.
What was I thinking? Like any good movie, but just a little bit more, you know, musical.
I honestly would’ve LOVED to hear the Vultures 2 that was meant to be released in March. A score of 20 is far too lenient.
DISASTROUS falloff near the end. Without the utterly redundant part 2 tracks, this is Kanye’s best solo effort since 2010.
Sort of hilarious watching Kanye’s insane downfall both lyric and production-wise.
As any great album should, it left me wanting more. That being said, it could've done with just that.
Holding the award where every single track (apart from Ghost Town) is just missing one thing. A few steps away from every track being basically perfect.
