"Production is sleek. Beats infectious. Lyrics powerful and interesting. Songs varied yet unified. Janelle knows how to do it all seemingly effortlessly. Gonna take some time for me to really get into Pynk, I Got The Juice, and Americans. It'll probably happen at some point. P.s. Screwed is a bop...." [+] Reply

"Holy shit!!! What a leftfield surprise. Not a weak track among the bunch--save "Don't Touch My Hair," which is still fantastic. A truly special record." Reply

"There isn't a bad song on here; Ye's production is excellent despite all of the controversy surrounding him; Pusha T is still and excellent rapper and talented lyricist; the features play their part well. This album sounds like luxury rap. It's just SO SHORT!" Reply

"His accessible sound is reminiscent of The Dream and infused with chopped and screwed over-production. It's lyrics are low in self-esteem and intelligence but this album cannot remotely come into frame with small PC speakers. This bass is meant to be felt under the influence of your choice. It's ..."

"I don't care what any of y'all say... St. Vincent had the greatest album of 2017. From the gay ballad turned banger that is "Slow Disco" to fan favorite "New York" this album shines. The album isn't her most cohesive but every song is absolutely perfect. (At least is not of those albums so cohesi..." [+] Reply

"Pom Pom is absolutely one of 2014's strangest albums. I remain a little on the fence as to whether or not it's one of the year's best. In its favor I'll say it succeeds utterly in busting down any notion of musical genre, residing somewhere in the ambiguous terrain carved out by the likes of Fran..." [+] Reply

"At the age of 25, Simbi Akijawo aka Little Simz, has finally succeeded with the release of her third album, "GREY Area". Ten uppercut-shaped tracks with machine-gun flow and rumbling bass. These tracks are ALL exceptional. More direct and incisive than its previous albums, "GREY Area" combines mo..." [+] Reply

"Crazy good debut album. I still remember the day I found this album, and still can't believe the sound comes only from a bass and drums." Reply

"An incredibly inspired, otherworldly, captivating, dramatic album. Her ethereal shapeshifting voice, the beautiful, brutally unconventional but highly accomplished arrangements... It's as if she's conjuring a new world into existence with the power of sound. I want to live inside this album and w..." [+] Reply

"Everyone of course this sounds like Thom Yorke's solo project. The reason the band formed was to initially perform songs from The Eraser live, a few years later they decided to release an album so that's why it sounds similar. Flea is so talented, you think the only way he knows how to play bass ..." [+] Reply
