Mar 15, 2025 at 2:48 AM Given the sheer number of albums being released each week across countless genres and artists, there are more releases than there are hours in a week to listen to them. I’d argue that spending time on an artist you’ve historically never liked is limiting your horizons. Instead, that time could be better spent discovering new artists/genres.
Mar 15, 2025 at 2:51 AM This is true. And normally I wouldn't have listened to this but I always talk a big mouth about the dude, the very least I can do is give this album a chance and share my honest thoughts.
Mar 15, 2025 at 3:11 AM Big Monkey's Blowup Doll (lmao) So a lot of these artists have been mentioned before on S80. And most of them I never really got into when I checked out their full projects. However, this is a dope collection of great rap records. Enjoyed it a lot! D.R.U.G.S - really dope, the piano music is so good man. Ab goes in and lyrically it's great. Hook is also catchy as h---. 9/10 Symmetry - a little more upbeat sounding than the last, love it. Saba is an artist I meant in my intro, but this song is great. 9/10 Carefree - same as above. Mick is really riding the beat, smooth as f---. Nice laid back track. 9/10 Feel at home - another dope and catchy hook, combined with smooth rapping and a laid back beat. Nothing to dislike here. 9/10 Waves On Every Chain - a different sound than the tracks so far but I like it. Never heard of this guy tbh. Again production is great too. 8/10 Not a drill - first song I didn't really feel that much (compared to the rest so far). Dude sounds a little bored/monotone, but yeah it's not bad and the lyrics are pretty good. 6/10 Fresh prince - the flow is really something I had to get used to but this is low key a b-----r. 8/10 Dead or alive - the energy here is amazing, and it also f---ing slaps. Probably my favorite so far. 10/10 Reality check - back to the more laid back s---, I can just repeat what I said earlier. This is nice, all of them killing the beat flowing like water. 8.5/10 The Come Up - Premier and AZ. What else is there to say? 9/10 Friends - sounding like a broken record .. maybe a tbt wasn't needed here because I can just repeat that this is a great track in every way. 9/10 Indian Summer - only thing that kinda bothered me is that I was waiting for the beat to drop the whole time. 7/10 Deeper - love the sample. Very relaxing song. 8/10 Mommy dearest - this isn't really my thing but it's good. 7/10 Lemon - method man kills it. Conway is meh to me and this is a little too slow for me I guess. Not that it's fair critizism, it's still solid. 7.5/10 Matthew in the middle - god I love the production. 'Since 99, we have problems' was so clever. But its more spoken word than he's actually rapping at times, but when he does rap it's great. 8/10 Man this was such a great listen @Allis Mines giving this a 8.5/10. Literally haven't heard any of these and added more than half to my own playlist. @AOTWClub Okay so gonna cover my ears now and listen to the rest of carti's album.
