BLACK🖤BRITISH🇬🇧MUSIC🎵REVIEW📜
Is this really a perfect album? No. But do I adore it to fucking pieces? Without a shadow of a doubt.
(lil edit: just so I don't have to respond to every comment, tysm for all the support down there, I truly appreciate it.)
This will be a mostly done track by track, though I’m excluding the ones that I really don’t need to talk too deep into.
I first came acquainted with Jim Legxacy around September last year with ... read more
This beat is wicked asl gng…might need to brace for it…
Soooo I might be going on a run of Mink’s singles before he drops Terrified . (5/22 btw tap IN) but we’ll see, my schedule is COOOKED (edit: nevermind, we waiting till Friday/Saturday😭✌️❤️)
Anyways, Suzy Sheer and Mink are incredibly consistent in quality as a rapper and producer duo with ‘Easter Pink’ and this. It may be two singles, but it's impressive to me nonetheless.
I love the ... read more
THROW THE THREEE UPPP GNG3️⃣3️⃣3️⃣ ANOTHER (KIND OF) ELECTRO POP BANGER IS OUT🔥🔥🔥
As soon as I heard that snippet for "The Troubles" I was hooked, that shit was EAR CANDY to me. I listened to it 10 times after that then made a specific folder in my saved reels to listen to it whenever I wanted to. Needless to say, I was excited for this album, but WOW this is a lot to process for 29 minutes. Ranging from Indie Rock to Electropop, even Digicore and Chamber ... read more
Is this a Alysa Liu reference??? nah but this is some good stuff gng, I js have a couple complaints.
I think the 43 minute runtime alongside the 16 tracks made it feel just the slightest bit bloated, and could've been a much more concise project that is consistent in its energy. I LOVE the Marvel Rivals sound effects added in, especially Luna Snow's "A nice deep freeze!" as it's better reflective of the sound throughout the album in comparison to Magik's ... read more
@B0AH appealed to my enjoyment of slayr, so I'm coming out the trenches for ts.
It sounded good, but got repetitive really quickly and the little pauses in the middle of the track didn't really help make it any more exciting for me. I think "The angry track because I'm mad at god for giving women period cramps" (😭) was a much more engaging beat, as it provided a change of pace midway through. that's all I gotta say.✌️.
Alright, I’m FINALLY getting around to this. I just want to address before getting into this that I don’t support Julian Casablancas’ usage of AI in promotional material and album covers, but I DO support what he and The Strokes did at Coachella, a great way to address the U.S.A’s issues and bring awareness to the situation in Gaza to a wide audience when you have the kind of platform of their size (only just realising while writing this review that Julian Casablancas ... read more
ANOTHER GOOD ELECTRO-POP PROJECT???
Yves is someone that I only know from the PinkPantheress' "Stars" remix, which I enjoyed a lot, so this was a good indicator heading into this EP.
The production was the best part of this EP, I NEED to hear more of IOAH's stuff after writing this, because the futuristic vibe that is exuding from Electro-pop is what I adore about this EP, like I feel like I'm walking out in the rain in overcast skies, while this is playing in my ... read more
this is an album swap with @woaeo, hopefully you enjoy Lucy Bedroque.
Please don’t read this if you feel uncomfortable with themes of murder and cannibalism, because there will be references to it in this review, as it relates to the context of this album.
The album cover represents the time setting, as it’s a rough and blurry polaroid with her sitting below a picture of Jesus. This is representative of the very dark and moody themes this album portrays, with Hayden’s ... read more
WAIT @weijreivews YOU CONTRIBUTED TO THIS?? you goated frrr.
ty for the rec @Gravesxtaac!
A decent collection of slow jazz rap conscious rap songs, nothing outstanding, some tracks were more ear-grabbing, especially "Going Diamond" and "Open Opal". Also I just caught on while writing this that the theme is about gems and stones😭
I think XBLESSEDUS's flows and vocals can really drag near the end, Which is not the greatest for 25 minutes.
which makes the features ... read more
NAHH THIS GOES CRAZZZY
ty @sanamdeep for the rec!
PLEEEASE find someone to rap on your beats (if you want of course) because this sounds really good. I think there's some missing oomph in some areas, like sometimes it feels empty and I kind of lose my train of thought, but overall there's a lot of great sounds in this Mixtape that could be fleshed out more In future. I think it may just be my head, but the louder and abrasive sections were more appealing and ear-grabbing, and also ... read more
Ty @zig for the rec!
Great single, this definitely gets me excited for the deluxe edition of Tales of Afterglow, because I feel like it's climactic, but it's missing some pieces that I could see being filled in with a transition into another next song, also just sounds beautiful, though I'm not the biggest fan of the piano at the end, though that may just be me❤️
Ok here's a quick review, ik I said I was going to be on a little hiatus but I got time now so why not
I have a confession to make...I don't really listen to Laufey that much, I know people are genuinely obsessed with her, but I couldn't listen to her last album in full, as the swearing was extremely off-putting and didn't fit the whole jazz vibe for me personally. Luckily, this one didn't have any swearing and was a highly entertaining and intriguing music video. and I ... read more
🚨🚨200 FOLLOWER SPECIAL🚨🚨
TY FOR 200 FOLLOWERS GNG! I’m genuinely beaming with joy TYSM!❤️. This was supposed to be here earlier but I wasn’t feeling it then, so I thought I might as well bring it back for a 200 follower special.
Anyways, let’s get into this PHENOMENAL groove and a half of an album!.
This will be a half done track-for track, going for a deep dive into some of the songs that are particularly memorable and interesting here for me, because I ... read more
the day of rec(koning) is over, I'm all up to date for stuff that's released soooo I'm just gonna chill out for the rest of my day✌️
ty @realjulianj for the crazy reccccc
So this is the sample for Sundress by Mr Pretty Flacko himself, A$AP Rocky! I should've known this considering how many sampling videos I've watched😭
this sounds good, but at the same time, Sundress did soooo much more with this sample. But besides that, I do love some neo-psychedelia and ... read more
THE DAY OF REC(KONING) PART 7
Ty @zig for the rec!
I like this a lot, especially after the explanation. The more lighter tracks were much better ("hometown", "dreams (beneath the sea)") besides "abyss // untitled"(except for the jump scare😭). I appreciate the amount of sounds you worked with, though I do enjoy the sounds from "Tales of Afterglow" a bit more from memory, I think the electronic sounds don't mesh too well with the ambient sounds, ... read more
THE DAY OF REC(KONING) PART 6
ty for the rec @tobuscusfan536!
favourite beautiful ahh tobuscus song: 8
why was it beautiful ahh tobuscus song 8?: The message and it not ruining a Nintendo song that I knew.
in summary: a beautiful ahh collection of beautiful ahh tobuscus songs.
Also very impressive body percussion throughout. Not necessarily good, but impressive nonetheless.
THE DAY OF (REC)KONING PART 5 (sorry if it seems a little spammy I feel a lil guilty myself for doing so)
come on did you have to steal a whole navy blue beat😭 😭
ty for the rec @sawman!
Jokes aside, it sounded good, but strongly sounded just like a parody of the artists you clearly are inspired by rather than your own original thing, and that's ok, just something that should be worked on in future, because at some point it does feel a little lazy.
Buuuut I DO fully support ... read more
THE DAY OF REC(KONING) PART 4
ty @LInkyDinky for the rec!
great spacey production, love the sampling, just a little short lived for my liking. There is something very wrong with Mark Zuckerberg...
Shoutout the social network, one of my favourite movies to rewatch✌️
THE DAY OF REC(KONING) PART 3
Ty @blakea08_ for the rec!
honestly great sounding song, but could switch it up a little in the lyrics, and when there is a mixup in the lyrics, they get lost within the mixing. I don't have a problem with the long intro, It allows me to get into the feel of the whole song, which is much appreciated as it progresses.
That's all I gotta say, excited for whatever else you have in store!
