So this is actually the first Earl album I've listened to, and it's...a weird start. I've listened to it, didn't really understand it, listened to Voir Dire and Some Rap Songs, and then re-listened to it. I'mma just say it: this is a decently good album, it's just not really my cup of tea. I think most of the production on this project is good, abstract and decently disorienting. But i think the biggest flaw of this album is Earl's rapping, specially his ... read more
Short review for a short album. Pretty fun album, filled with bangers, amazing production on most of the songs, and extremely high energy. This album will make you dance until your legs give up and melt, and that's the main goal of this album. But, i have to say, this is my least favorite album of Tyler since Goblin, for how good it is. I know this wasn't meant to be a deep, conceptual album, but that's its main flaw to me.

This is no debate AOTY, literally a flawless album with a flawless tracklist, flawless production, flawless verses, flawless features. This album is pretty much a longer Alfredo, and that's amazing. Uncle Alch has blessed us with amazing production, that creates this fantastic, relaxing landscape that blends perfectly with Freddie Gibs' flows and verses. Speaking off, Freddie is somehow in rare form on this album, and that's fantastic. Flows that are addicting on songs like Lemon ... read more
Even after the peak that was TPAB, Kendrick showed no sign of falling off, and released his most successful album to date, DAMN. This project is a concept album, as it tells two stories opposites of each other, depending on how you listen to the album. Outside of that, DAMN sees Kendrick flexing his position in the rap game and about his success, while also talking about the bad sides of fame like feeling alone and surrounded by fake people. The production on this album is pretty great, but ... read more
Absolutely amazing album, so good that it still holds up 13 years later, sounding better than 99% of the music that has came out after it. Kendrick's story telling is pure fire, especially on The Art Of Peer Pressure and SAMIDOT, production is absolutely banging when it needs and haunting or sad when the time comes. The lyrical content is absolutely fantastic, just like Kendrick's flows. This is the best album of 2012 and one of the best of the 2010's,i recommend it to ... read more
