Denzel Curry back with an album of just non stop bangers, my only criticism of this album would be the interludes feel kind of useless, and 4 of them in a 35 minute album feels overkill. If you came into an album after hearing the singles and expected some deep introspection that on you.

Edit: As time goes on the cracks and missed potential hits me a little harder than it did before. Boiling the character of slim shady down to basically fox news headlines is not only ruins the character but emboldens and encourages those ideas even if that isn't the intent. The first 6 songs are also downright terrible, bad production and the absolute embodiment of this problem.

Really good mixtape almost every song on here is amazing, and Shaun King is the only song that I found the be just ok. The beats are hard and the bars are even harder.

Really good production, not so great start that does reach a very good climactic high.
Production is quite good, if not a little bland. Lil Darkie's singing is quite unimpressive and his lyrics feel like corny sad middle schooler break up lyrics. Was not a fan!
This is my first Lupe album and I am very excited to explore the rest of his catalogue. Production was amazing, his flow and lyrics are great, and so is his singing. No songs on here that I dislike but I do think that Bigfoot gets a little tired at about the three minute mark.

Really cool change in direction for Gambino and his music, I think diving into a kind of more psych rock or alt rock sound right now could be really cool. If the rest of the album sounds similar to this and has this much emotion I am very excited for it!
Eminem used to be cool. Production is spot on for pretty much every song on this album, flow is great songs are funny and serious when they need to be. He can be serious when he needs to for a song and if he jokes during the song its usually done tastefully and in a way that doesn't take away from the rest of the song.

I have given sexyy red more chances to impress me then she deserves quite frankly, it is very unfortunate that in a generation with a lot of great women rappers and artists that Sexyy red is one of the most popular. Her flow is incredibly boring, her voice is annoying, she isn't a great singer, and her bars just aren't that funny. The production on this album is quite solid, except for the mike will beat, which i was disappointed by. The intro track is corny as hell, you aint ... read more
Easy top 5 for this year, vince flows over all of these beats amazingly, and the production is really good. The drums on Étouffée especially go insane.

Amazing album, interesting and innovative sound. Pusha's rapping, although not as strong as It's Almost Dry IMO, is on point and hits hard. Ye's production heightens the sound of the album by miles.

Maybe some of my favorite production on a rap album ever. The entire time the songs sound very on edge like something is about to happen, and when Got Flicked comes on and is basically 8 minutes of chaos, its an amazing release tying the album together perfectly.
