Lupe Fiasco - Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor
95

The production on this album sounds so amazing and will never get old. Lupe has an amazing voice and amazing verses all around to go with it. No weak songs whatsoever on this.

Fav Song(s): Kick. Push, The Instrumental, He Say She Say, Daydreamin'

Drake - ICEMAN
35

There are many things I can say about this album, and I'll start with my biggest gripe which is Drake himself. On almost every song Drake is "rapping" and I have rapping in heavy quotations because he does the same thing almost every song. One bar -> pause -> another bar -> pause, rinse repeat. It gets old quite fast. The beats are also a huge factor as I do actually thing that some of these beats are actually pretty good, but it gets heavily overshadowed by Drake's ... read more

Joey Bada$$ - Lonely At The Top
60

Definetly his weakest mixtape not really adding anything new or interesting into the mix, but It does it's job and is overall pretty decent.

Fav Song(s): DARK AURA, 3 FEET AWAY

Joey Bada$$ - 2000

Going on a Joey streak right now LMAO

I think that this album has some high highs while also being consistent. It feels like a new step Joey has taken with great beats and flows combined with good rapping skills on almost every song. (With what the title and album cover is obviously referencing) it almost feels like 1999 but upgraded with thing's he's learned throughout his career.

Fav Song(s): Make Me Feel, Brand New 911, Zipcodes, Survivors Guilt, Written in the Stars

Joey Bada$$ - B4.DA.$$

This is where Joey applied his mixtapes and combined them with more meaning, personality, and thoughtfulness to make an overall really solid album. While none of the songs really stood out to me, none of them were what I would consider bad. Consistency is sometimes something you need even more in an album than a few songs better than all the others sprinkled in, and I think this album achieves that quite well.

Fav Song(s): Paper Trail$, Piece Of Mind, On & On, Curry Chicken, Teach Me

Joey Bada$$ - ALL-AMERIKKKAN BADA$$
90

An album that evolves Joey's sound to its absolute limit. It's a perfect mix between catchy verses and hooks and lyrics that talk about many topics that are relevant to this day. A very fresh switch up from his earlier mixtapes like 1999.

Fav Song(s): TEMPTATION, DEVASTATED, Y U DON'T LOVE ME (MISS AMERIKKKA), RING THE ALARM

Joey Bada$$ - Summer Knights
70

Sadly the streaming version of this mixtape has only 7 songs on it which is very dissapointing, but it's still a very solid set of songs. It's a great continuation of 1999 with strong beats and lyricism.

Fav Song(s): 95 Till Infinity, #longlivesteelo

Fuck you guys this album changed my life

Fav Song(s): January 28th, Wet Dreamz, Apparently, A Tale of 2 Citiez, G.O.M.D, No Role Modelz,

J. Cole - The Fall-Off
90

This is what J. Cole's whole career was preparing for and it did not disappoint. It's a beautiful mix of all his albums combined. This easily has some of his best songs on here and shows Cole's longevity. What a way to end this career off.

Fav Song(s): SAFETY, Two Six, 39 Intro, Poor Thang, Legacy, The Fall-Off is Inevitable, The Let Out, I Love Her Again

Vince Staples - Dark Times
80

The entire album has a very nice and chill vibe to it. Vince focuses a lot on emotion on this which I think he captures perfectly in basically all these songs. Really conistent with none of the songs being bad in any way.

Fav Song(s): Black&Blue, Étouffée, Justin, Little Homies

My Chemical Romance - I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love
55

Definetly their least interesting project with absolutely none of the songs standing out to me (except maybe Demolition Lovers). The vocals definetly needed some work as most of the time Gerard's voice just becomes straight up annoying. An album that gets heavily overshadowed by Three Cheers and The Black Parade, and probably for good reason.

Fav Song(s): Demolition Lovers

Olivia Rodrigo - SOUR
50

While there isn't anything that I strongly disliked about this album, at the same time I can't really say anything positive. It's pretty much the most basic an album can get and while that's not a bad thing (sometimes), It also means that there is practically nothing to it.

Fav Song(s): deja vu, traitor

My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade
75

Less consistent than Three Cheers with more misses here and there, but doesn't make it a bad album. Felt different enough that it was a pretty unqiue experience atleast compared to their other stuff.

Fav Song(s): This Is How I Disappear, Welcome to the Black Parade, Famous Last Words

MGMT - Congratulations

There was WAY more character to this than there was in Oracular Spectacular. Way more consistent and the songs were all interesting all the way through with a collection of very intriguing songs thrown in here. I am a SUCKER for long songs so I thought that Siberian Breaks sounded beautiful all the way through, Lady Dada's Nightmare was a fun, no lyrics song going right into the title track which was a perfect way to end it off. Overall, basically everything from their last album was ... read more

McKinley Dixon - Beloved! Paradise! Jazz​!​?
80

Definetly is weirder than Magic, Alive!, but that doesn't mean it's bad at all. It's got a lot of great songs on it and I think McKinley is amazing at keeping all his songs fun and interesting. A solid, nice and short album with good production that continues on with Magic, Alive!.

Fav Song(s): Run, Run, Run, The Story So Far, Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!?

Lil Uzi Vert - The Perfect LUV Tape ®
65

Feels more like an extenstion from Vs. The World than a unique mixtape with nothing really changing and making it seem kinda boring. With that being said, This carries along the fact that it doesn't get necessarily worse than Vs. The World. Overall, It's not what I would consider "bad", but it is quite boring.

Fav Song(s): Seven Million

Lil Uzi Vert - Luv Is Rage 2
50

While it does have some good songs spread out here and there, I think this album is pretty messy and sometimes just flat out boring. It gives us a variety of sounds and voices which makes it unique(?), but in a way where most of the times it's just obnoxious. I do think there's something here, it just felt like it needed much work.

Fav Song(s): Sauce It Up, The Way Life Goes, Neon Guts, XO Tour Llif3

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular

Slow Burn: The Album

While I do respect the production on this album, I do think that most of the songs take too long to actually get interesting, and when they do, they're normally at the final minute of the song. I think the 3 singles really help this album, although I did somewhat like a couple others.

Fav Song(s): Of Moons, Birds, & Monsters, Electric Feel

McKinley Dixon - Magic, Alive!
90

This is honestly just non-stop bangers for me, some of the most lively music i've ever heard and it just doesn't stop once. The amount of instruments that are on each of these songs and how they all work so well together still baffles me. Overall an insane album that WILL never get old.

Fav Song(s): Could've Been Different, Sugar Water

Kanye West - BULLY

this is deadass the goofiest album ever and what's bad is I KINDA fw it.

Fav Song(s): ALL THE LOVE
