I have been listening to this band so much this year and this album is currently fighting a battle in the top 3 of the year for me. I am obsessed with The Story So Far currently and this album is filled with back to back bangers. It's such a fun pop punk record it makes me want to start grooving in my room the moment I put it on every single time! This is easily the best this band has sounded in my opinion and I really appreciate the calmer more emotional moments towards the end of this ... read more
Been a fan of Tyler for a long time now but sadly this one just didn't work for me sadly. Got to show mad respect to Tyler for always experimenting with new sounds.

I finally sat down properly and listened to brat in full a few times round now. The hype was absolutely worth it.

I think it's clear to say that this album has the best production of the year so far. As much as this is filled with back to back bangers I was pleasantly surprised to hear some tracks that featured much more vulnerable lyrics and topics.

Wow I was expecting to hear new material from Kendrick but I was shocked with a full stealth album drop. The production sounds amazing on here. I absolutely loved the relatively unknown features (Excluding SZA), they bring the west coast vibe completely. There's tons of bangers on here and a ton of reasons to constantly come back to this record. It's easily going to be competing for best rap record of the year!
Favourite tracks include 'luther,' 'tv off' and ... read more
