Surprisingly, the more fleshed out Cities Aviv's sound gets... the less I like it?
Bold statement to start this review on, I'm aware, and it's also not quite as absolute, since this is the only 20s Aviv album I've listened to. Furthermore, isn't Accompanied by a Blazing Solo an anomaly? It sticks out like a sore thumb of sorts in his discography, and if I liked it more I would be using prettier words.
Accompanied by a Blazing Solo is supposedly a 38 minute song, among ... read more
I have been on a sort of writer's block as of late. So many reviews intended for my recent listens have slipped, and that may be a trend that parallels some other aspects of my life that are falling apart, or at the very least I'm sliding away from.

Being a Kanye devotee since early 2024, it's been weird. As a whole, everyone who took a liking to the man after Donda era has experienced a warped version of fanatism and fanbase, where most of the community clings desperately to all before wherever they think drawing a line in his discography is acceptable, while they beg for him to step out of the public eye and frantically tell everyone else in the fanbase to act the same way. There is no excitement, no real joy, just an endless sea of ... read more
