Before we start...
Thank you everyone so, SO much for 500 followers. I know I've said this so many times before, but I just cannot put into words how much the support you lend me makes me happy. I've met so many good friends and have come across some of my most beloved pieces of music because of this god forsaken site. It continues to amaze me that not even a year ago, I had less than 50 followers and was essentially posting the notes I had taken on trap music, and I've now managed to grow ... read more

Scaled and Icy.
Where do you go after making a masterpiece? Plenty pondered the hypothetical after rapper Kendrick Lamar released "To Pimp a Butterfly", a record many consider to be one of the greatest pieces of music ever made. I mention the question because Scaled and Icy represents the successor to Trench, a shockingly exceptional release from a group who never seemed interested in exceptionality. A departure from the sterilized pop rap of before, Trench perfectly showcased the ... read more

Growth, whether artistic or personal, is a necessity among humanity. Across the lifespan of the planet, thousands of different species have become extinct due to an inability to adapt to the constantly revolving climate of the Earth. And humans are mostly the same, just on a much lower scale. The inability for a person to change is a showcase of supreme weakness, and stagnation can lead to a variety of different negative outcomes, from rejecting a doctor's advice and dying as a ... read more

The Perfect Red Velvet.
It may seem easy to be able to compare K-Pop artists, based off of whatever criteria, and choose one of them to boast towards friends and foes as a favorite. But the simple act of having a favorite has led to the creation of some of the most competitive fanbases ever conceived, just as how the K-Pop industry itself is one of the most competitive on the planet, period. K-Pop has transformed social platforms to a brazen battlefield, with wars having been waged with the ... read more

She Is.
K-Pop is constantly stereotyped as extremely toxic by clueless westerners, as a corporate side of South Korea that promotes shady practices and mass-produces characterless K-Pop idols designed to cater to teenagers. And though the stereotype is laced with racist roots and boatloads of xenophobia, it wouldn't be as popular a stereotype as it is if there wasn't any truth to it. Deep below the sea of state-of-the-art and revolutionary K-Pop artists lay tons that possess little creative ... read more

No Label II.
With the designation that 2017's Culture was the debut of Atlanta's trio of trapstars, it can be surprising to come across music that precedes the cold-blooded and calculated triplet flows of the present day. Take it back to the summer of 2013: Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff are completely starved, after tasting true success with the mega-smash Versace (and Hannah Montana to a lesser extent). So, eight months later, they returned to the trap house and cooked up the twenty track ... read more

Hey Mate,
I am currently making a list compacted with AOTY user' top 10 worst albums and would love for you to contribute to that. The information if you decide to share will be used to create "The Average AOTY Users worst album" consisting of 50 albums. If you feel comfortable contributing please mention your top 10 worst albums in order from 1 being the worst and 10 being the 10th worst. It would also be highly appreciated if you are ok to give a few words why as well :)
Thank You So Much Have A Good Day!

Hey everyone, Real Weasel here. AOTY's resident Plants vs. Zombies stan, the leader of the Quavo Revolution + one of the few good BTS stans. Feel free to leave a message in my Shoutbox, I'd love to start a conversation with you! Also read the BTS Songs: Worst to Best! It's pretty good I'd say.
