Barely scraped into the good tier but only because it is fairly consistent across the tracklist and has good moments. Don't care for Curren$y as a rapper, but he does solid enough here.
Update: I'm not the the biggest fan of this, not bad but it just feels a bit lackluster in quality. Just decent overall.
Top 3:
The Blow
Tapatio
Bundy & Sincere
Worst Track:
Now & Later Gators (Don't like the hook here.)
I've said this before, I'll say it again, trap is not this man's strong suit, he didn't learn from SOAD or ESGN.
Top 4:
Diamonds 2
Automatic
Set Set
Toe Tag
Worst Track:
FLFM (Interlude) (What was the goal here?!)
First 3 tracks are phenomenal, but the middle of this album is somewhat forgettable.
Top 4:
Alexys
20 Karat Jesus
Crushed Glass
Homecoming
Worst Track:
Dear Maria
Problem is this is a fine debut but for someone like Freddie Gibbs, this is basic and contrived, not that bad though. There are great tracks here.
Top 5:
Freddie Soprano
I Seen A Man Die
F.A.M.E.
Paper
Certified Live (Jay Rock > Freddie Gibbs)
Worst Track:
Have U Seen Her (Forgettable.)
Ehh...this is mostly filler beyond a few great tracks:
Top 5:
Zeus
Discombobulated
Tone Deaf
Book Of Rhymes
Alfred's Theme
Worst Track:
Higher (Horrible Hook)
Best IDK project yet. Weak in the beginning middle but by the end establishes it's place in 2026's rap scene
Top 5:
Devil
Life 4 A Life
Misogynistical
Flakka
Scary Merri
(HM) Cell Block Freestyle
Worst Track:
Everyone Knows (Surprisingly under-average beat from RZA.)
Falls off a bit in the second half but had very strong performances throughout.
Top 5:
Mario Coins
Check
Still I
C.I.T.T.
Tiffany
(HM) Kickin'

Papercuts (Bad Hook)
Same things as the first but slightly weaker.
Top 5:
Feds Watching
Fork
I Do It
Extra
Live and Learn

N/A, nothing bad here just all decent at worst.
Does it have a lot to say, no...but is it fun no less, yes.
Top 5:
No Lie
Extremely Blessed
Birthday Song
Ghetto Dreams
I Luv Dem Strippers
Worst Song:
Dope Peddler (One of the worst sample flips I have ever heard.)
This is a much better album than ADL. While it does have some notable weaknesses in the last few tracks and every so often between those, its highs outclass those lows. Yeat mainly sticks to what works and for the most part, he succeeds. He seems to be a much more interesting and fired up artist. He seems to have a Lil Uzi and Young Thug cadence that really works to its best when done correctly.
Top 5:
Super Test
WAR 1
Wavey Krazy
X ta C
Twizzy
(HM) Trendy
Worst Track:
Last Day (This and ... read more
Great rapping from Conway and Westside Gunn Compliments him well enough at some points.
Top 3:
Fendi Seats
Empire
If I Ruled the World '15
(HM) Brains on the Basquiat

Richer Porter (Good, but the least good here.)
Meh, the final tracks save it because this is sort of weird.
Top 5:
The 27 Club
Face Down Ass Up
A.C.N.S.
Black Ben Carson
What's Crackin'
Worst Song:
Try Me (Vocals are horrible even with a good song concept.)
The Deluxe helps a lot here from the OG tracklist but there are highlights on the regular as well
Top 6:
Dogs Don't Lie ft. Royce
Pradadabang
Dinner Date
Puerto Rico ft. Jvck James
Cry In Church
King Alfred Plan
(HM 1): Temporary Love [Extended]

Red (Nothing Special Here tbh.)
The epitome of mid. I don't like or dislike it.
Top 5:
Active
One Of Them
Momma
New Sofas
Hate Me
Worst Track:
Damn near half of this album can go here, but Anxiety Wins and Listen To My Demo stand out for being exceptionally bad.
Nasty rapping from Pusha T and great production, but questionable choices is the only thing holding it back.
Top 5:
Diet Coke
Neck & Wrist
Just So You Remember
Dreamin' of the Past
I Pray for You
(HM) Scrape It Off The Top

They Got Sonny
Worst Track:
Calvin (Just a boring flow.)

"I find this album just a bit basic, I like Q's trap style but a whole project filled with essentially Blank Face style songs but less creative to be just meh."

"@Soundwavenjoyer Okay, maybe that is fair, but it feels like a weaker version Superwoman. It's essentially Superwoman with less impact."

"@AZIZ Why are we glazing the most mid album to come this year?"
On kluemi's review of Yeat - ADL
"@kluemi Look, if this album was the second second disc and the best 5 songs from the first, I can see 70+, but as is, people are glazing because this isn't a good project. It's decent at best. ADL = A Deceptive Listen"
On kluemi's review of Yeat - ADL
"This might get a 50-60 from me, don't know where it scales though."
On Remi's Reviews's review of Yeat - ADL
"I feel like this is generous and this is coming from me, imagine this being the first Yeat album you sut down and listen to, that's me."

On matitypeshit's review of Young Thug - Slime Season 2
"@matitypeshit Oh no, I agree it holds up in the last and first 1/3, it's the middle section that holds it back. If this was just 12 tracks with the last and first 6 songs, it would deserve the praise."
On matitypeshit's review of Young Thug - Slime Season 2
"@matitypeshit Also, no offense I don't get the hype for Slime Season 1, don't get me wrong, there are bangers but it loses steam fast."
On matitypeshit's review of Young Thug - Slime Season 2
"@matitypeshit For me it's like 70% filler with occasional gems. He went 14/22, but if I'm being real here that should be like 7/22 if not lower. The best track hands down is I'll Tell You What so I'll give you that but almost everything else is decent or meh."
On matitypeshit's review of Young Thug - Slime Season 2
"@matitypeshit What half of this album is fire, I love Thugger as well, but this is just long drawn out and very boring."
On whatsthebuzz's review of ScHoolboy Q - CrasH Talk
"I get wHat you're saying but tHis album is Half and Half at best. If I wanted to Hear ScHoolboy Q over trap I'm going to OK Alright or Code of Honor."
