Might be my least favorite denzel project, but it's still denzel.
Favorite track: WISHLIST
As far as story telling goes, this is amazing. As far as song and sound goes, it could've been so much better.
Favorite track: Fuel
I liked this one a lot better than scaring the hoes.
When it's Peggy doing solo work, with features or not, it's amazing. This is everything I love about Cornballs, Veteran, and Ben Carson, and it feels new again.
The use of guitar this time around is clean as hell.
Man is constantly pushing boundaries, and it works.
Favorite track: vulgar display of power
There's not enough good here to playlist any of these tracks.
Edit: FIELD TRIP is growing on me a little.
Maybe you can playlist that one.
That's really the only good track I can find that doesn't sound totally horrible in the mix.
Listening to this project is like throwing on music, having on Bluetooth headphones, and trying to call somebody.
Everything else lowers in quality.
The only difference is that you're not calling anybody.

Not as big a fan of the more emotional cuts this time around, but the banger tracks are certified.
Favorite track: Perfect Pinterest Garden
Gambino said in a comedy special "I make weird music" that which still remains true, which is what I love the most about it. Every aspect about this album is weird and enjoyable to some extent.
However.
Only a percentage of it really sticks.
Favorite tracks: Lithonia, Cruisin', Running Around
I already know there's gonna be an audience of people somewhere blaring Yesterday's Tomorrow's Today and using it for a tiktok video about cooking because that's all it's good for.
Decided to finally listen after the Fantano review dropped.
Can't lie, hard disagree with his rating. HOWEVER, I'm seeing a lot more issues on this as I had with 'amo.'
There's a handful of songs that feel pretty standard for alt metal tracks, even with the weird sound effects thrown in the production.
It's not their worst, but definitely not their best.
Also, it's wild to see songs from three years ago pop up on this album.
I get taking your time with a project, but this seems like it was ... read more
Wha.. what??
The wordplay using internet memes and sound effects is insane.
I heard the first second and was like, "is this that duo from tiktok?"
Upon this I was thinking it was going to be horrible.
Imagine my surprise when I'm still listening in the second half, and vibing with almost every second.
Danny Brown and Terror Reid were the best features, hands down.
This duo shows there's still a lot of creativity in music today, and this album is a testament to that.

An excellent album to be sure.
Probably one of the weirdest hardcore albums I've ever heard in the one of the best ways possible.
Favorite track: Suffocate
30 tracks is a lil crazy, but the overall runtime makes up for it.
It feels like a lot to take in all at once, but at the root of it feels dark. It's got me doing that one back thing where you feel like something is creeping up on you, but there's nothing there. Got me literally on the edge of my seat.
Favorite track: OTHERSIDE
I love the sound here, there's just not enough that hooks me like previous projects.
Dry your eyes is pretty good though.
Also peep the K.K. feature.
Favorite track: dry your eyes
I wasn't expecting a new Vince Staples drop anytime soon, but this was an extremely pleasant surprise. The flows are catchy, the production is on point, everything is damn near perfect, even the interludes.
Favorite track: Étouffée
I really.. really like this.
Like.. I can't even explain.
The vibe of the album is consistent, with a nice come down at the end.
As someone who has never fully indulged into a chief keef album before except for few songs?
This is really, really good.
Favorite track: I'm Tryna Sleep
Nahhh.
I already wasn't super looking forward to hearing this album back when the singles were releasing, but now that it's out I can confidently say that the singles were the best part of this whole rollout.
There's nothing here that fits what those had to offer, and it makes for a truly messing listening experience.
Routines In The Night might be a close second favorite though, as it at least tries more than the other tracks in this list.
Favorite track: Overcompensate
Much cleaner than initial release in 2020. Feels much more put together, and Algorhythm no longer has the severely distorted mouse clicking sound at the beginning of the first verse.
Favorite track: Algorhythm
I find myself experiencing this with every Billie release, and it's that there's always something I love about it, but there's always something holding me back from giving it a higher score.
In the case of this project, I can't tell if it's how on the nose the writing is, or if it's the slow feeling Quadeca Scrapyard esc buildup within each track here. It's another case of all the parts I love about come later in the tracks, which average at about 4-5 minutes. I definitely will say that I ... read more
Definitely not my favorite album from WILLOW, but it's pretty good in it's own way.

I was always turned off from listening to Pearl Jam any time there was a new release, but this was a pleasant surprise.
Properly rated.
Favorite track: Scared Of Fear
Doesn't hit as hard as the first project. The genre switch is interesting but not enough to hold my attention.
Favorite track: Always Be My Fault
