"I am generationally and stylistically distant from Beyonce in terms of my taste, but this is such a trip of an album. I can't help but love it. Bold as heck and totally epic. Wow! I hope to see this album highly rated with lots of traction on BEA." Reply

"I think it might be a generational thing but I don't like his vocals. I'm a bit puzzled by the all the acclaim given to this album." Reply
"Zero Sum - wow. Can’t get this song off repeat at the moment. That frenetic guitar of Johnny’s is next level. Seriously, once you let these songs seep in they grab you completely. Amazing album." Reply

"There would be plenty of reasons to be growing tired of Peggy‘s shtick. Last year's Scaring the Hoes had its moments, but an overly online vernacular and ropey finish stopped it from staying amongst my favourites of 2023 – not to mention his fawning over Kanye earlier this year when offered a pro..."

"On "All Born Screaming", Clark effectively utilizes her emotional range to get across the feeling of the lyrics. "Sweetest Fruit" sounds sympathetic and caring, while "Broken Man" is jaded and desperate. The production leaves too much space between the instruments. It sounds awkward and like its ..." [+] Reply

"Very impressive stuff! I've been a bit impartial in the past on her music, but this one struck all the right chords for me. My biggest gripe is it's EP length but marketed as an LP. I can't get enough of this one." Reply

"Really good album. I’ve never heard anything like it in terms of genre blending. I was completely blown away at parts. I think it tapers off towards the end in terms of quality songs." Reply
"It is one of those albums you can tell will initially be underwhelming especially after the busy pop heavy Little Dark Age. This album is not a head bopper.
