very strong beat, everybody here does good. carti’s adlibs through most of the song is good and so is his short verse, lil yachty surprisingly did pretty decent here, and future.. well i feel like this could’ve been a future song. very future esque beat and futures verse might be the best. not sure though
OH MY GOD WHJAT
DIFFERENT DAY - 10/10 best single and top 3 carti. probably
2024 - 8.5/10 love this song, not my favorite single like it is most peoples but i still like this. legit though this was carti and ken on first listen back in 2023
BACKROOMS - 9/10 first listen of this song when i first dropped i was disappointed. woke up and listened to it next day and i loved it
FOMDJ - 8.8/10 didnt care for this song when it was on MUSIC V3 or even when it leaked or was at rolling loud. but yeah ... read more
crazy, CRAZY highs.
the beats here are consistently great with probably only two i don’t think are as good, metro did amazing here. i love his versatility from hard rap beats like don’t come out the house, to soul(ish) samples in overdue, to nice non-rap songs like borrowed love. metro did great on this album’s production.
some features do better then others here, with swae lee’s performances being mixed but him being very good on borrowed love. travis scott does great ... read more
lancey foux, who i called the goat as a joke before i even listened to his music, and yt who i discovered all of three days ago but really like. greatest collaboration of all time 😭🙏
spotify recommended me this song a few times and i never bothered to listen to it in full but maan i did miss out for a bit bc i actually really like this
wow. a year already?
this album was what got me to start reviewing on this album and honestly this listen it grew on me. almost all of the beats here are fire and future is pretty good on here, mostly. all of the features here are great (with the elephant in the room obviously being the best), i love the weeknd vocals on Young Metro and Travis Scott's voice was completely made for cinderella.
some of the songs in the last part of the album that were weak to me before grew on me with this ... read more
eh. theres some decent here with like one amazing song but theres just so much filler. i think i just dont like this genre as much as other people do though. the filler is repetitive and mostly sounds the same. first four songs on here are the best (moveon is the best song here and actually a really good song) and i really liked daydreaming, the guitar part was fire
overall, i never really gained anything from listening to this since i heard moveon before the listen of the whole album. so.. ... read more
love love LOVE the 808s here. kyle richh’s voice goes really well with this beat and oddly enough matches ski mask in this song. pretty good overall, probably gonna grow on me
eh. listened to this for yt but i enjoyed benji blue bills, prettifun and skinnyboi cj. cayo and xtsy* were ok and the rest were really just.. whatever. i wouldn’t say this listen wasn’t worth it though since it’s only like one minute per song lol
best cyphers: yt, benji blue bills, prettifun, skinnyboi cj
percaso / 5
brezzo / 5.2
cayo / 6.5
skinnyboi cj / 7
xtsy* / 6
rroxket / 4
yt / 7.5
prettifun / 7
benji blue bills / 7.2
woah. what a lineup.
nemzzz’s track at the start featuring some plaqueboymax bars are pretty solid, but i will say i don’t like that nemzzz sounds slowed down most times. not just in this song but in general. his second verse sounds fine though 7.5/10
1000 is a crazy crazy song. this was the first song i’ve really heard in full from yt, although i’ve heard his stuff before i just haven’t bothered to listen to them fully. but this is hard. the beat, his flow, and ... read more
IT'S CARTI WORLD
well where do i start with music? i can't really say if this was worth the full five-year wait since i became a carti fan three years ago, so i only waited around like half the time... but honestly, yeah. this is worth it for me. there is not one song i didnt think is green on this album, with the lowest songs being DIS 1 GOT IT and one of the ai songs. i hate that its ai but the song itself is still alright. the highs on this album are arguably the highest points in ... read more
LOVE this chorus and this beat is pretty good but when this song first released i wasn’t too into it. i didn’t finish listening to it </3 but after like 3 days i can say this is a pretty good song. chorus far better than the verse which isn’t even bad but i just really like the chorus
although short at only 10 songs with 3 of those being instrumental tracks, this album still holds up and is great regardless!
the intro non-instrumental song, ‘rats’, and the outro song ‘life eternal’, are my favorite tracks here. rats is a great introduction to the feel of this album and life eternal is a great song in general, and an amazing outro. i also love the outro to the song before life eternal. it’s an instrumental song that gets pretty calm at the end ... read more
pretty good but i’m not crazy abt it. i will say though he does great over this beat
yeah this one never really did click with me sorry guys
edit (8.0 > 7.9)
for the discussion of carti’s best album, i see this and die lit come up. because they’re the only two. but honestly, i prefer die lit. not to say this is bad or anything! there’s some great songs on here.
but it did grew off me very slightly. the last three songs are all eh and the outro would be a beautiful way to end the album if carti didn’t throw the whole song with the flow he does
has some of the best carti songs, all of the iconic f1lthy ... read more
wow.
i seriously think “Die Lit” might be one of the most relistenable albums in the new era of rap. there are only two skips on this album i would willingly skip - and they’re not even bad songs. usually albums ~20 songs long scare me off, but this one is incredible. long time, rip, lean 4 real, shoota, flatbed freestyle, no time, middle of the summer and rip fredo are all great songs… and they’re all 10/10s. there’s still more amazing songs, nearly all ... read more

Hit Or Miss: The Album
thankfully there’s more hits then misses but man. making this a ten track debut would have really made it better in my opinion
this listen of the album gave me a few more songs i enjoyed - one, i think? lookin’ i previously didn’t like. besides that, some other tracks i previously enjoyed got a little bit better on this listen, so that’s good! let it go, new choppa, lame fellas and the one before ... read more
