A return to form compared to New Planet. 2024 for Redda was very rocky for me as there wasn't a lot of tracks he'd preview or release that I enjoyed or consistently replayed (there's some tracks he'd end up releasing on this project though). I became a fan of Redda due to his cadence and artistic evolution throughout the years, but unfortunately New Planet ended up stagnating that evolution. That isn't the case with this record; while it is still supertrap, Redda finds ... read more

Trippie has Trippie'd this album like the rest of the other ones he put out in 2023. Too bloated, lots of unnecessary tracks in this. Don't know why Snail Shells & Moncler Coat were even included (though Moncler Coat's beat is fire). Don't get me started on #RBDG. Stick to V1 and pretend this didn't happen. Favorite tracks were Popular, Psychotic Lunatic, #SDWL.
A great EP from the artist who couldn't catch a break all 2023. MANSION MUSIK was mostly bloated and super inconsistent. ALLTY5, although cohesive and consistent in tone, lacked in flow and substance. Now, we come to SM v1. A lot of these tracks were from his not-so-secretive drop THE LEAK 1, like Van Cleef Island and Ok, Cool. For what it is, this is his most consistent tracklist since Trip At Knight. Would recommend a listen if you like Trippie. Favorite songs are Van Cleef Island, 7am in ... read more
It was soooo close to beating TLOP4 in quality, but Pi'erre had a few tracks and mishaps that drag the rating down (i.e. 40 Clip, Sharc's verse on Drunk & Nasty). Regardless, AMAZING record from Pi'erre that continues on the good name and wavy beats of TLOP4. Favorite tracks are Switching Lanes, YNS, Retroville, Butterfly, and 4U.
When I listened to TLOP4 for the first time, I was asking myself how Pi'erre can improve on such a masterpiece. Well.. it's safe to say that he managed to -- and exceptionally at that. This deluxe is mostly consistent of tracks he was going to drop on earlier tracklists of TLOP4, except now they are polished to the same level that the final TLOP4 was. Exceptional deluxe record that sets the standard for his music going forward. It's really hard to pick a definitive list of favorite tracks, so ... read more
The long awaited 4th entry in the TLOP series and Pierre's first debut studio album. Suffering through numerous delays and complete tracklist changes throughout 2016 - 2019, the final result leaves a very focused, relatable album. Timeless body of work. Favorite tracks are Poof, Feds, How High, Horoscopes, and Guillotine.
DS3 is Redda's debut album, and it doesn't disappoint for it being his first. When you start the album, you're immediately greeted with the floaty but aggressive track "Body," setting the precedent for the rest of the record. Even though Redda was only starting to find his sound in this record, he managed to pick a cohesive enough record that is enjoyable throughout. Favorite tracks are Body, Outside, Goin, and Gravity.
Outerspacer is a solid evolution to the sound DS3 brought to the hip-hop scene. Redda's beat selection is much more consistent in this record, leaving the album a lot more focused as a result. Favorite tracks were Blood, Demon Girl 2, I Keep, and Popstar with Ezri and G2.
Weak set of songs to what is a solid supertrap record. Favorite track is I'm Not U.
Redda doesn't stop to prove to people that he is the king of supertrap. This record only further evolves on the sound Outerspacer had, even going as far as to combine genres together (as seen on Jersey Night). Favorite tracks are Jersey Night, Twister, Bad Hoe, and 1, pt. 2.
This is Redda's best work so far, even after New Planet. When you listen chronologically from DS3 to Tears of X, you can hear Redda's distinct evolution in each body of work -- and this record only elevates that point. Redda's weakest link is his tendency to add too many songs to an album, creating unnecessary bloat with each and every record. Favorite tracks were Dranker, Spidey Monclizzy, Body 2, and Beyblade.
Redda still has issues with bloating his albums with songs and off-putting features. I was having trouble sitting through the album on my first listen, but there is definitely a fine supertrap album in this. Favorite songs are Fluid, Ocean, Hunnas, K9, and Flyin' Whip.
